Where to ride
Barking & Dagenham is a great place to cycle. The borough was awarded Biking Borough status by the Mayor of London in 2010, and cycling journeys within the borough are continuing to increase, with more people choosing to ride their bikes to work, school, and for fun.
There are lots of good routes for cyclists in the borough. You'll find a route map of the area's cycle lanes on the council's website.
