Explore London: Richmond Park

Last weekend we bought me a bike! It's part of my 'explore London over the Summer', to possibly help me commute, and also to help me get fitter. So this weekend, we went off for the day to explore Richmond Park.


As an extremely unfit person, it was a hard ride, about an hour all up. We did make a short stop in the way for a snack though. However, as we were arriving, it started to rain. It wasn't heavy rain by any means, but it was persistent. Once we arrived at the park, we rode to a field where some deer were hanging out and sat under a tree to watch them a while. Only annoying thing was, these Chinese tourists were there and they kept going closer and closer and making the deer run away!


After that, the rain had still not stopped, so we decided to slowly make our way home. We rode to a cafe for a quick stop, where we stumbled on a herd of boy deer with their excellent antlers! It was very cool and el Husbando took many photos.


Then we rode down the hill to the Robin Hood gate, wound our way through Wimbledon Common, and made our way to Wimbledon train station. I was much too sore and tired to cycle all the way home again, and thankfully, you can take your bicycle on the overground trains!
