    Central London? Absolutely! Some of us are looking from the outside, and realizing the incredible change London has undergone for cycling in the last generation.
    I'm enjoying and envying every bit you share.
    Thank You!

    Some more of these shorter, more central route videos would be great. And as someone else said, routes around mainline stations would be handy too.

    Some Central London routes would be good, especially if they start/finish at one of the big mainline railway termini. Those of use that don't live in/around London will often be getting off at Marylebone or St Pancras or Waterloo, so routes from those to places 10-15 minutes cycle ride away are handy for visit planning.

    Amwell St is named afer Amwell Springs, the start at the north end of the New River, which is on a the NCN61 cycle route from Hertford to Ware. If you ever do a Hertfordshire cycle routes set of videos, it's one to include as it's a fab ride along the waterside for 3 miles.
    Indeed anyone wanting a nice cycle route across Herts accessible from London could easily get the Thamseslink train to St Albans, do the Alban Way to Hatfield and then on via Welwyn GC to Hertford and Ware, then Greater Anglia train back to Liverpool st.

      for Liverpool St > holborn, the City has an LTN of sorts planned for a good distance between those two places hopefully going in this year, so I intend to use that when it goes in. would near Holborn tube or near Chancery Lane tube be more helpful for you? @@MonticArckeys

    Did I see you on the pedestrianised area of the Strand on Thursday evening, or just someone that looked a bit like you?
    Also - I wouldn't mind at all seeing more Central London routes. But I watch every video anyway, even if I live nowhere near it.

    Nice little route. Just out of interest I usually travel in from the West Mids into Marylebone and occasionally like to visit Borough Market. Is there a good route between Marylebone station and the market opposite Borough tube station? It would make a change to cycle above ground and see the sights rather than mess around underground connecting trains.

    • @Londoncycleroutes
      @Londoncycleroutes  Pƙed 4 měsĂ­ci +1

      It’s not perfect but I’d take C27, C6, then south of the river turn left into C14- I should do more routes to borough market though!

 angel is still vaguely central but north central. Further up the street to Highbury and you’re no longer in central for sure
