The Thames and it's great barrier

Living in West London means most of the off-road biking is done within a 10 mile radius. But a short train ride from Brentford to Waterloo gets you to the other side of London and a great ride past the Thames Barrier is within reach. Using the Woolwich ferry to cross the river you can then come back along the north bank via Canary Wharf, back over Tower Bridge and sneak through back streets to Waterloo.
