No thinking here, even the ineffective kind.

I'm still looking into planning an Oxford outing for the future. Some of the Thames/Isis footpath in the West of Oxford is inaccessible ATM due to building work, and will be for some time. A work in progress. I'm looking forward to the next TBC wherever it may be though. |

I hope something might be possible for June. Perhaps when McG gets back from his travels and the Easter hols are over someone could come up with the route and logistics etc.

Why don't we go back to the original route? It has so many possoble shorter routes. Tower Bridge to Hammersmith crossing all the bridges is about 15 miles Start at Big Ben instead would be about 11 miles and there are plenty of tube stations along the way for shorter routes too. Hammersmith was quite a good spot for lunch and a lovely bridge to end on |

Big Ben to Hammersmith might be enough in summer, that's 10 bridges and would move us away from the busiest most touristy bit straightaway. I quite like the idea of starting on Westminster Bridge.

Looks like you're organising then B Doodle poll? May might be a bit too near, perhaps June/July?
