Early morning ride around empty Olympic park, via Hackney Marshes is about as good as it gets in London I reckon. Hopefully when the wetlands are redeveloped there will be good paths to ride as well.

I'm assuming the swarms of flying insects have yet to appear this year.

i will check out the route through the hackney marshes up to walthamstow one of these fine days but been a bit busy and also staying a few nights at friends in leytonstone so just go through the park and i'm there. it actually feels quite unfair that i get to enjoy such a pleasant route for riding in london compared to some of the horrors i hear people having to go through on here.

new route from walthamstow to the wharf is on cycle paths for the first 5m which is absolute bliss. i've done a lot of other commutes moving around london and i don't think anything can beat this one. takes in olympic and victoria park as well. i could actually do the remaining 2.5m or so down the canal but got no time for that nonsense.
