LCF Havering: Country cycle to the Thames 2026

Help us celebrate the London Cycling Festival by joining Havering Cyclists on our family-friendly bike ride! Havering cyclists are running a family friendly, marshalled ride from the Visitor Centre in Hornchurch Country Park along mostly shared-use paths to the Thames and back again (about 9 miles in total). Setting out at 10am, the whole route is on National Cycle Route 136 and there are toilets, refreshments and car parking at the Visitor Centre. We expect to be back at the Visitors Centre at around 1pm. Join us early to get a free bike check. From 9am to 2pm Dr Bike will be opposite the entrance to the Visitor Centre providing free bike checks, cycling advice and minor repairs. So you can get your bike checked before the ride, when you get back, or – if you’re not joining us for the ride – simply drop in between those times.
