Mountain biking

Shortly before you get to Erith on the Thames Path is a surprise- a very steep, footbridge. Part of a dredging complex, there’s no cycling signs at the foot but it’s fun to ride. There are a number of uneven, stepped concrete slabs just before the climb so getting a good run up isn’t easy - you either need to shift to a low gear or stand on the pedals and push hard.

Legend has it that there’s a troll living underneath.
