Maybe we should all use Boris Bikes? A Bottleneck of Boris Bikes would have no tyre trouble on the Thames Path.

We'd be done if there was a pyramid of piffle strewn all over the place, Ross!

lunch time loop to the kitchen

3fingersjoe will be hiring a hybrid/mtb which will be faster than a boris tank and the roads from woolwich to greenwich are pretty fast and not really bike friendly that's why i chose the thames path

If Frank comes out to play, there are going to be a lot of fingers about...

........ that's why i chose the thames path

The Thames Path is closed and will remain so for the forseeable future between the arrows I've placed on the map.
There is a work around via Tunnel Avenue, the shared cycle path and Mauritius Road, which is spectacularly un-pretty. If you pick up tunnel Avenue at its north end, at Drawdock Road by The Dome, you'll miss out the gravelliest section of the Thames Path next to Delta Wharf and Victoria Deep Water Terminal.

You'll be able to help 'guide' us around User10571 - thanks All we need is an Adam American reprise + some Leggisms and this will be a top tour!

Is this on anyone's radar - as in can you identify it? News to me.
