Cycle Steps |
1. A steady ride down to the A1306 which you follow through to Tank Hill Road.
Through the RSPB centre along the sea wall until you come to the London walk footpath at Ferry Lane South
Along the road (care at A13 junction) toward Rainham BR station
Through Rainham till you reach the A1306
Follow the 1306 all the way to Prince Regent Lane
Turn left to go toward the Airport
Right at the roundabout and across the bridge
Left at the bottom of the bridge and come under it to get views of the planes coming in from Canary Wharf (wind direction permitting)
Cup of coffee at Royal Albert DLR and think about the journey home
Cross toward Strait road and follow this to Cyprus place
I was a bit stupid here (put that down to lack of local knowledge) and went the wrong way to get on the A1020
This put me on the wrong side of the road so pushed it to the next junction(200 yds ish)
Across the junction and down the greenway cycle path
This brought me back to the A1306 and went down this path almost all the way home.
