2026 Sadly I had an aneurysm in June 2025 and was in hospital for 4 months, I am getting my fitness back but some rides are not offered this year. Please contact me before booking. Hi there, fancy a day out from busy Central London? Enjoy cycling? Why not join me and see real parts of outer London on our bikes! I do also run walking tours in Central London as I know it well, it has been my city all my life. I was lucky enough to be born in a glorious area of South West London and apart from travelling to see the world I've always returned. I love meeting new people and showing them my favourite local places by what I feel is the best mode of travel. . . a bike. This historic area has old Royal hunting grounds containing deer, world famous places like Hampton Court Palace, Kew Gardens, Windsor Castle* and stately homes along the River Thames. It is only 20 minutes from Central London by train and a peaceful place to visit or base yourself whilst in London. I have been granted a license to run my bike tours in Richmond Park, the largest Royal Park in London and Bushy Park which is next to Hampton Court Palace. Both of these parks have wild deer living here for us to see on a bike tour. Enjoy the beautiful river route to Hampton Court Palace the 16th Century home of the royals which you can visit after your tour if you wish. So get in touch and experience a bike tour on your next trip to London. *Not available 2026 One of my ride involves beer tasting, sampling 6 famous Fullers Brewery beers in the brewery town whilst cycling the River Thames. Or cycle in Windsor Great Park a 20 km2 old royal hunting ground 2 km from Windsor town. Take a taxi to the meeting location and start as this road is busy and uphill. Full day tours I offer a very British experience with a traditional afternoon tea picnic in the summer, enjoy a hot pot of tea and homemade cakes set up in fantastic locations.

We will provide bikes for a memorable trip out of the busy London city centre and one of our favourite places! Having lived in this area in South West London all my life, my family and friends know how lucky we are, because we live in a stunning area. Richmond Park is the largest Royal Park of London (10 km2/6m2) and was the hunting ground set up by King Charles I in the 17th Century. He walled the area and had 2000 deer put in for his favourite pass time. Thankfully after 150 years of hunting, King George III stopped the hunting and now we can see 600 deer in this unique protected area. You will enjoy a circular leisurely park cycle, with added River Thames ride and walk through the Isabella Plantation (famous for azaleas and rhododendrons in April/May time). We have a great local pub for lunch or bring a sandwich to enjoy in the park whichever you wish, returning to Richmond train station for your trains to Central London. Full day rides with summer tea picnic available just ask if interested.
