Itinerary description

This is basically one of the best road rides I have ever done around London area.
From the big city you will be very soon in Kent enjoying surprisingly very quiet roads through the countryside and the forests. That place, Biggin Hill, is very popular among Londoners road bikers, so you will probably find quite a lot cyclists on the road.
Kent is definitively a nice area to explore...

    Hi Ian, the ride and the weather was great indeed.
    Kent seems to be a nice place for riding and walking, and it is not very far away from London..

    If you don't mind taking your bike on the train, you can start/finish many nice rides in that area from Hayes station (direct trains from Charing X/London Bridge), cutting out some of the more boring urban cycling. See my routes for some examples.
