Thank you to Elly and David from Ealing Cycling Campaign for taking a group of us on a tour of west London’s garden suburbs today. The architecture and the trees coming into bloom were 👌👌👌 #LondonLovesCycling

This is what #LondonLovesCycling looked like for me today. First time on a Pedal Me for my niece on our way to the theatre this afternoon. She was a little unsure at first but was joyful and elated by the end of the ride
