  • new bike path to avoid the Ruislip Road E

    Yep, LB Ealing have done well with that new shared bike/predestrian path.
    It is pretty smooth, but still unmarked, so pedestrians just wander all over it.

    Have you ever taken the bike route adjacent to the A40?
    You have to use the footpath of the A40 to cross the canal,
    (or go way into the park to find the footbridge),
    then past the Four Hills,
    to the little known foot/bridge over the A40 at the Target roundabout,
    then along the north side of the A40 to the Polish War Memorial?
    Take care here, just before the end of the filter lane for A4180 to A40 eastbound,
    there is a dropped kerb/entrance to a field with steep approach & exit angles.

    Yeah, it sucks. Well, the outer bit nearer Denham is ok, if noisy with traffic. But get closer to town and you're constantly looking for where to go, it's skinny, you get slowed down at junctions, etc. I prefer Uxbridge Road.

    I hate slowing down, so if cycle infra slows me down, I stick to the roads.
