0km 0km Start Start Here W 260° 0m
0.67km 0.67km Saxon drive Lots of annoying speed bumps SW 219° 35m
1km 0.33km Noel Road Give way coming off Saxon drive (watch for traffic coming off roundabout), cross onto Noel road and immediately left at roundabout SW 205° 36m
1.57km 0.57km Horrible surface and more speed bumps Right turn immediately over bridge S 174° 33m
2.21km 0.64km Ealing Common Right turn at hotel then cross busy Uxbrodge road and get into cycle lane - not too bad thanks to traffic lights at main junction S 180° 35m
2.37km 0.16km Left onto North Circular Turn left onto North Circular at traffic lights - there is an option of going on pavement on west side but North Circular is not bad when quiet S 170° 0m
3.59km 1.23km Traffic lights Straight over - nice down hill to get up a bit of speed but watch for traffic as can be busy SSE 151° 27m
4.49km 0.9km Approach to Chiswick roundabout As you come over hill, indicate like hell and move to right hand lane S 177° 0m
4.6km 0.11km Chiswick roundabout Go on the outside of right hand lane and use pedestrian/cycle crossing to go through the middle of the roundabout - much safe than try to go round it SSW 197° 0m
4.75km 0.15km Back on N circular After using pedestrian/cycle crossing you can now get back onto road WSW 239° 0m
5.18km 0.42km Kew Bridge approach Keep left at lights - if traffic heavy, recommend use pavement here as it can be tricky S 178° 11m

7km 0.5km Cycle lane Hooray ! SE 129° 0m
7.7km 0.7km Major junction Use advance cycle way to get ahead of traffic - sit in middle of two lanes as left lane turns left and you are going straight on - not as bad as it looks SSW 184° 9m
7.98km 0.28km Bridge Watch for pedestrian lights at bottom of hill - a bit narrow S 175° 0m

8.63km 0.46km Cycle Lane WSW 242° 13m
9.07km 0.44km Lights easy left turn - up on the pavement and off again if lights are red SSW 198° 16m
9.22km 0.16km Queens Road A nice hill to get you warmed up SSW 198° 21m
10.31km 1.09km Narrow road Road gets very narrow and/or parked cars - just hold your ground SW 215° 0m
