cycled to the dartford crossing and back sticking to the thames as much as possible today, knackered now
down to the crossing on the north side, it does get a bit industrial and grotty near dagenham and the ford plant, and due to their use of the thames to exports cars there is a fair chunk where you can't even see the thames but on the whole pretty peaceful and quiet cycling
coming back on the south side there is a 5 miles or so section of road and a 3 mile or so section of unmade path but then after that you are golden
nice smooth paths all the way to woolwich where is re crossed
the taxi service across the bridge is pretty efficient.
thinking about a bridge ( singular ) ride in the summer just cruising down then up the thames
