A visit to Fulham Palace is planned for our first Saturday all day ride of 2020. It should be a good time to visit; the palace and moated gardens have been renewed and restored over recent years. There is a cafe for lunch, and volunteers planted out 25,000 bulbs last autumn, so the gardens should look wonderful,(as long as the squirrels haven't raided the beds!)
Meet at Mansion House 9.45 am for 10 o'c start, or Kingston Bridge at 10.40. Have coffee before we set out please. We'll head through Richmond Park via Ham gate, through Mortlake and over Barnes Bridge to follow the North side of the Thames through Hammersmith and down to the Palace. Cycle routes, greenways, towpath and quiet roads throughout. After lunch we'll cross Putney Bridge and head for tea, either Wimbledon Common or Roehampton.
Hoping for a nice day in the coming week to recce this route, and feeling optimistic that spring will be properly underway in a fortnight's time☺.
