I generally agree. Maybe because I wasn't in normal cycling clothing and didn't have my spd shoes I felt a bit less confident. I managed HPC ok, but it wasn't lovely. Maybe I just need to do it a few more times.
On the way back I went underneath, and onto Piccadilly, which was fine.
Is there a way around HPC without having to go all the way round, with attendant lane changing a mad taxi-driver dodging? ie could one sort of go right rather than left, and head to Knightsbridge that way?
