Was closed yesterday evening... So I leave Canary wharf on my usual jaunt home. Cycling along and random cyclists start shouting at me as I pass them... I couldn't quite make out what they said.. then it dawned on me TUNNEL CLOSED... so I did a U Turn and chased after the last person to pass me. He set a fairly decent pace so it took a while to catch him, but when I did I asked which way he was headed. As I suspect to the Woolwich Ferry... I then stated I would be riding his tail and that was that.

What an utterly pants cycle route it is to the Woolwich Ferry or Tunnel. You need front suspension! My chain was rattling all over the place. Id say this route for me is an additional *CENSORED* no drama there but with 10kg of shopping in my back pack plus usual commuting items.. Well it was a decent work out and a bit of excitement on the commute but id not enjoy cycling that every day.

Cheers to guide guy whoever you are.
