| 1. This is a great route if the weather is good. Starting out in Hackney it takes in a lap (almost) of Victoria Park. It then cuts down to Canary Wharf for a loop around the skyscrapers. Then along the Thames until Battersea where a jump across the river, at Queenstown Road (A3216), takes you into Battersea Park. Then back over the bridge at Battersea Bridge Road (A3220) and a mosey through Chelsea Harbour, for all the rich women out for a run. Then across Wansworth Bridge (A217) (got a little lost here, and could have stayed on the A205) and found my way to Richmond Park. A lap around Richmond Park (lost again as I end up at Putney Bridge via Roehampton, could have cut through Barnes Common on the A306). From the south side of Putney Bridge I headed to Hammersmith Bridge then into Shepherd's Bush.
