Hi, I'm in Bow and often go out to Epping Forest for a nice 50k loop there and back but after being side swiped by a car doing a very late left-hand turn (I survived unscathed the guy right behind me wasn't so lucky) I've really gone off all the traffic you have to put up with before you get there.
Anyone know any crafty routes for a nice quick quite ride from east London? Or is it best to leap frog all the crap and get a train to somewhere good to start?
