I'm going to be staying at Lea Valley in a couple of weeks time and fancy bagging Swains Lane while I'm down there. Has anybody got a good route? I'll either be doing it in the morning or late afternoon.

    I did it in 2014, drove up from near Brighton and parked at Gunpowder Park. I also bagged Mott Street en route, another of the 100 Climbs. I was a bit dismissive of Mott St at the time, but it feels like you are on the edge of the city and escaping it as you climb. I got a bit lost trying to dodge the North Circular, but this is a starter -

    Thanks, that helps a lot. I'll avoid the visit to Costco though :D
