This weekend I'm going up the Arsenal with my 13 year old son. We will be going from Peckham, watching the matches and then cycling back.

Can anyone suggest a nice route, not too busy, avoiding main roads please? I don;t think I have much choice other than Tower Bridge, what do you think after that? Spitalfields then up through the back of Shoreditch/Old Street to Angel? Or up to Dalston and along the canal toepath?

The more scenic the better, the more green the better!

Thanks
