Monopoly Plus London ride 8th June 2024

Monopoly Plus London Ride – 8th June 2024

To celebrate the longer days of June, we have a longer all-day ride this Saturday.

The theme is Monopoly! We will visit many London icons and lots of the stops on the Monopoly board - and there will be rewards along the way...

It will be a mixture of fun, London sightseeing, and some leg-stretching beauty in some surprisingly lovely green and serene spots. Hopefully, the variety will offer plenty of enjoyment for everyone. We will go through the West End and the City of London, out into docklands, up into the Olympic Park and beyond to the Lea Valley before returning back to town to hit some more Monopoly squares.


The route will be a 38 mile, pretty flat loop to and from Clapham Junction, via parks, rivers, canals and backstreets in between the density of the town areas. The ride will be relatively slow and is quite long so please bring fortitude of legs and heart- and your usual sense of humour and fun. To keep us fueled along the way, we will have three 30-45 minute breaks. 


We will gather for coffee at the Pear Tree Café in Battersea Park at 10.00 . Those who are taking the train should be outside Clapham Junction by 9.45 (on Grant Road, past Platform 1). Please be aware it is a long day and we may not be back at Clapham Junction before 6.30pm.


For those who don’t wish to take the train and don’t mind the additional mileage, we will have a group leaving from Nonsuch promptly at 9.00.


There are limited places, so if you are interested in joining the ride, please send a private message via WhatsApp to Madeleine Shearer, Gamesmaster, 07533673919.

Please specify your meeting point:

Nonsuch Park at 9am

Clapham Junction at 9.45
