Meet 10 am Richmond Train Station
Thank you for choosing a Merry Pedaller bike ride, here is the information for the day:
If you have not done so yet please let me know your genders and heights for the bike
sizes.
Richmond Upon Thames is the last stop in the west side of London on the Underground District Line (Green Line) or on the mainline train from London Waterloo, we are happy to advise on your best route just ask.
After coming through the ticket barrier walk up stairs to the ticket hall and I will see you inside the station by the shop called W H Smith.
Wearing a bike helmet is not the law in the UK but they can be provided on advance request, please tell us if small/medium or large required for attendees. This ride is mainly tow path or in the park; there is a small amount of quiet road cycling.
There is a steep walk where we need to push the bikes, if you have any concerns about this please get in contact with us.
Wear suitable outdoor clothing, the River Thames is tidal so path can be muddy in places, avoid “flappy” trousers or sweat pants due to chain. Waterproofs are always advisable.
