For next few weeks I need to commute from Northwick Park to Baker Street. Any local commuters care to recommend a decent route? Is the A5 a no-no?
Going to use a CX bike with Gatorskins so could do a bit of gravel if necessary.
Thanks in advance.

    Hi

    Not sure if this is helpful, but I have a nice-ish route that takes me from mid Hertfordshire (north of Watford) that goes via Harrow & Wealdstone train station->Kenton-> Kingsbury (A4006) briefly A5 towards Hendon, then a left onto the A504, and left onto A502 all the way through Golders Green, Belsize Park, Hampstead then a stretch along Regents Park, reckon from there you can get a route to Baker Street easily enough. At 7am it's pretty clear but am yet to do the return journey after work!!

    Let me know if you want a kmz/ gpx file or a link to it on www.ridewithgps

    my wife used to do that mostly along the canal, have you considered that option?
    Rule #5 // Harden The Feck Up.
    Rule #9 // If you are out riding in bad weather, it means you are a badass. Period.
    Rule #12 // The correct number of bikes to own is n+1.
    Rule #42 // A bike race shall never be preceded with a swim and/or followed by a run.
