Do you want a quiet route or main roads? Both are not too hellish in the middle of the afternoon. You only really have two options to get over the Lea, both have cycle paths on the pavement, do not recommend using the road on either*. Lower Lea crossing connects more directly to both Excel and the CS something, but has more debris on the path. The other one goes from East India Dock Rd over to Canning Town so is direct if you're on the main roads, and is clean, you just have to cross to southbound when you get to Canning Town, I usually use the pavement crossing to the station and across.
* I mean for the actual flyover/crossing bit, not the whole way...
