Churchwell Path, London Fields

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Komoot will usually try and take you down Mare Street instead of this much quieter - and just as quick - route through from the north to London Fields.

Lea Bridge Road

Highlight • Bridge

Fully segregated cycle paths are wonderful - and this one is one of the best.
They are also deceptively safe - almost the most likely place to have an accident with a motor vehicle. This is because riders are riding where motor vehicle drivers are not looking. Every time you cross a side road or driveway you must check behind (for anyone turning left across you), forward (for anyone turning right across you) and to the side (for vehicles emerging from the side road). In all of these situations, the rider has priority - BUT, if you touch your brakes, you will be deemed to be giving way...and, if they don't see you, they won't give way to you.
Sit up, be assertive - force them to stop and give way...but always have a Plan B in mind in case that does not work.

It's an excellent spot for a drink post-hike. They serve a selection of beers. After hikes, I've stopped here plenty of times, and they serve good coffee. I usually stop here for a coffee in the morning when I do my Edmonton to Limehouse bike ride along the canal. Also, it is a dog-friendly pub, so expect to see some furry friends.
