Join us on our free longer social led-ride from Woolwich Arsenal to Borough Market and back via the Thames Path, historic Greenwich, and Southwark Park.

Eager Cycle Coaching is delighted to be partnering with the Royal Borough of Greenwich to run a number of themed cycle rides over the coming months! Join us on our free longer social led-ride from Woolwich Arsenal to Borough Market and back via the Thames Path, historic Greenwich, and Southwark Park.

This ride is suitable for adults and children aged 11 and above who can ride with good levels of control and are able to ride a reasonable distance (we'll take it steady!). This ride will be a mixture of traffic-free and on-road. We'll cycle on Tooley Street before reaching Borough Market which can get quite busy so some prior experience cycling on the road is recommended. Our ride leaders will be there to offer support along the journey. The route will take us from Woolwich Arsenal along the Thames Path and onto Greenwich. From there, we'll join the C10 cycle route and then cut through Southwark Park to join the new C4 cycle route, which passes Tower Bridge.

From there, it's a short ride to Borough Market, where we'll enjoy a break, before riding back! The ride will depart at 9.45am sharp from outside Woolwich Works in Woolwich Arsenal (The Fireworks Factory, 11 No 1 St, Royal Arsenal, London SE18 6HD). Please arrive at 9.30am so we can start the ride on time! You’ll need to bring your own cycle, which should be in good working order.

Remember to wear comfortable clothes that are suitable for the weather. We recommend you bring a snack and something to drink for the ride. This ride is individuals living or working in the Royal Borough of Greenwich. Any children attending the led-ride must be supervised.
