• Went and did laps at Regents Park this morning between about 8am and 9am due to the recent road closure of the Olympic Loop Road.

    Any tips on what are the best times to go and whether there's a sequence to the lights which would negate so much stop/starting?

  • Plus1 for before 07:00. Another tip is go do Inner Circle, which is still in pristine condition after the resurfaving last year, but as that is so short you quickly feel like a hamster on a wheel and j defy anyone to do more than 15 minutes there.

    Lights on Outer Circle are a massive pain but you have to bear them, also ride Outer Circle anti-clockwise then you only have a single junction to cope with at the south-east corner.

    Almost forgot check out Regents Park Rouleurs who have a regular early session there.

  • There's a 100km strava segment for the inner circle. It's the dumbest Strava segment I've ever seen.

  • I quite enjoy the inner circle, particularly for its peacefulness. It highlights another failure of motor traffic, how bloody loud cars are.

    If it is a choice between the inner circle and the turbs....
