		+	'''Deptford''' at 10⅓ miles (16⅔ Km) is another fairly long ride. It will meet other groups at Tower Hill and continue as part of a merged group. The start is hosted by the Piehouse Co-op, who are the new tenants. You can arrive early and socialise. It is a private location so there should be no onlookers. You might also get yourself bodypainted.

	'''Clapham Junction''' is very convenient for the train connections, after all, it is the biggest junction and has the most trains passing through – over 2,000 on weekdays. It is optionally a circular route, with riders returning to the start point after completing the ride. Our start point is alongside the station (Platform 1 side) in a fairly small public square, so riders should not arrive early. The route is 9 miles (14½ Km) without the optional return leg.

-'''Croydon''' is a new start this year. It will be the longest of the routes at 20⅓ miles (32½ Km). Riders will need to keep up a good speed before joining the other groups in Central London. The venue is in a gated, private property so will be convenient for bodypainting and some pre-ride socialising.
+'''Croydon''' is the longest of the routes at 20⅓ miles (32½ Km). It has a gentle pace of about 9mph (when moving, overall average will be closer to 6mph). Following a tour of a few town centres it will be joining the other groups in Central London. The venue is in a gated, private property with no onlookers. Riders are welcome to arrive early, relax, eat sandwiches, socialise and get painted.
-'''Kew Bridge''' slips to second longest at 17¾ miles (28½ Km). It tends to attract a small group of enthusiastic cyclists.  The ride crosses the meandering Thames five times before joining in with the Clapham Junction start. Altogether you should get to cross the Thames eight times! The ride starts from the southbound roadside at the north end of the bridge. This means there is nowhere to socialise or do body painting – and no point in arriving early. It is a relatively small group of riders.

The start is at Matchstick Piehouse, a theatre, café and bar. It is a private location which means you can arrive early from noon to socialise, do bodypainting, eat pies and drink.
+'''Hackney Wick''' is a new start location for 2024. It's at the Thingy Cafe, 1 Trowbridge Rd, London E9 5LD and is close to Hackney Wick Overground Station. The start is hosted at a café so riders can arrive early, buy food, buy drinks, use the toilet and socialise. It should also be a good place for body painting.

 '''Regents Park''' is an easy ride down through the centre of town, and particularly good if you are bringing your bike in via Euston or Kings Cross stations.  The Royal Parks do not give us permission to start from the Park, so we start roadside instead. There has not been a problem with people visiting the park before the start, but do not get naked, do bodypainting or look like you are lining up for the start! This is the shortest route at just under 7½ miles (12 Km).
+'''Wellington Arch''' is again being used as an alternative to Hyde Park.  It is the most popular start with several hundred riders, which can be overwhelming for nervous beginners.  It is an easy route of around 8 miles.
 All the routes merge for the core part of the route, from Westminster Bridge onwards, to form the 1,000+ rider peloton (which always moves at a safe, comfortable pace and gets stuck a bit). The main route ends near '''Hyde Park Corner'''.
