The 9th annual Summer-fun bike ride to celebrate the Borough of Camden’s many fascinating faces. If you want a bike check, come from 9.30 onwards. Set off at 10.30. Under 16s to be with responsible adult.
Join Camden Cyclists and ride round the boundary of Camden in a clockwise direction starting from the Town Hall. Follow the border of the City and Westminster through Lincolns Inn Fields and then turn north and west through Regents Park. Then use Boundary Road to head over towards the border with Brent. The border is on Kilburn High Road but you'll take a quieter parallel route just inside Camden (Abbey Road, Priory Road and West End Lane). Then turn east through Hampstead Cemetery on the border with Barnet, stopping for lunch in Golders Hill Park (bring a picnic if you like). After lunch ride round the Heath extension through Highgate (Haringey) and then down the hill along the border of Islington.
When you get back to the Town Hall, you will have ridden 18 miles. Then, to complete the ride (if you want), cycle north through the middle of Camden to the Old Town Hall at Belsize Park – a total of 22 miles.
This ride has from 2007-14 been Camden Cyclists' annual Bike Week ride visiting every ward in the borough. There is usually a good crowd of all types, sizes and abilities and plenty of marshals to ensure safe crossings of major roads. It’s fun!
