Wanstead Park to Markfield Park

From Wanstead Park we follow cycle paths and quiet routes. A family friendly ride. A good ride to give confidence for cycling on public highways. Marshalled throughout. The ride is suitable for all ages, abilities and bike styles. All children must be accompanied by an adult. We welcome riders, returning to cycling and wishing to build their confidence. We travel at a gentle pace and there should be time, if you are interested, to visit the Beam Engine Museum. Our rides are sociable and relaxed. A great way to spend the afternoon with the whole family. The ride is 14 miles long in total.

No-one gets left behind. We do our best to deal with minor breakdowns, but it does help if you carry a spare inner tube for your wheel size.

There is a cafe at the destination, but you are very welcome to bring your own refreshments. We always recommend carrying water. It may be getting warmer by the time of this ride. (We hope) Keeping hydrated is essential to ensure you enjoy the experience. To reserve a place on the ride please use the RSVP button below. If the ride is full, please email rides@redbridge.org to be placed on a waiting list.
