RIDE Aug 19th. Henry Moore Statues Ride.  

Please register on Eventbrite so we can limit numbers, link: < https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/henry-moore-sculpture-ride-tickets-694577900197  >. 

Note the unusual starting location and the different start & end points. Here is the ride info from Jane who will be leading: 

“Start 10h00, finish 13h30.  Start location: Archbishop's Park, Royal Street/Lambeth Palace Road junction (opposite St Thomas's Hospital Emergency Dept.). End location:  Kennington Park Café.  Distance: 13.78 miles / 22.18 km. This ride follows a route across Vauxhall Bridge and mostly through central London to look at 8 works created by the sculptor Henry Moore. We will return via South Kensington and Chelsea, visiting "Three Standing Figures" in Battersea Park and ending with a surprise (for some) on the Brandon Estate near Kennington Park."

Be prepared for a bit of stop/start riding as we'll be hearing brief facts about each sculpture and there will be a coffee stop at some point. We should finish by 13h30. Anyone who needs it will be given directions back to Southwark destinations from Kennington Park.  Route at
