    Why not? It's not as though that's far, so swing down to the Embankment, then back up to MC.

    Alternatively, can we have a game of Mornington Crescent to decide you route?

    I'll start: Earl's Court Road

    Bzzzt! There is no Earl's Court Road station.

    For my go, how about Earl's Court! Cheeky, I know.

    I'll leave the game for others.

    few options, could link though Hyde Park to Regents Park.

    when I've been though I've tended to go Hammersmith - Shepherds Bush - Lancaster Gate up to A40 and then though Regents park.

    So... considering pembridge villa, then westborne grove past paddington then join onto the fly over past it's flyover bit and then head up from there... Not the safest I grant you but likely fast for a cyclist or just too dodgy? Basically kensington olympia station to mornington crescent station.

    What bike? If it is a reasonably robust/hack or MTB, then St Anne's road then join canal towpath at Sainsbury's
