This may just look like the Greenwich Foot Tunnel but to the laden cyclist it is a welcome sight. The National 1 cycle route brings you down through London to the Thames and here, thanks to the thoughtful Victorians, is a gentle way across, or rather under, that river barrier.
The lift works well at both ends to avoid the spiral stairwell and after a peaceful stroll under the river it brings you out to Greenwich to view the Cutty Sark and Maritime College. So I am at the Greenwich Meridian, a suitable place to start any journey. Phileas Fogg would approve.
Now it’s off into the mysterious land that is Sarf London
