Sunday 25 March 2012 – Save that date!

Meet at 10 AM at New Southgate rail station.

Barnet’s Great Divide Ride is a “Giro d’Juntions”, if you will. The North Circular Road (A406) is a challenging barrier to cycling to and from north London. Join us as we zig-zag our way over all of the crossing points on the A406 from New Southgate to Staples Corner. The ride will finish around lunchtime with a picnic at the secret park in the center of Staples Corner.

This a fun ride, the pace will be slow and it will be suitable for all ages. It will be orderly and professionally marshaled, so that all the family can safely make their way over some of the worst junctions for cyclists in north London.

We will take in some of the facilities provided for cyclists as part of the old LCN+ network as well. Things like this sheep gate… New developments should be better than that, shouldn’t they? It seems however that TfL and Barnet Council have entirely failed to account for the growing numbers of cyclists who want to move across the A406.
