London Dawn

[Kaya75]

Alright all, (TL:DL - Can I ride around London at 4am on a Sunday with no fucks given?)

Not a multi-hemisphere big tour, but I need some advise for riding on our fair capital city..

I've ridden and driven through London a few times - but years ago when I first migrated to the south I went on a few night / early morning drives around London in my car, but then it was no ANPR cams, no congestion charges etc.

What I'd love to do is go for a early morning tour of London - Dawn at Tower Bridge, donutting Parliament square, wheeling past the palace, that kind of thing. I'm riding a 2001 Bandit 600 with my other half pillion, she's experienced at pillion and all that.

What I would like to know is, can I ride a "old" bike (2001) anywhere in London, what time / days do the charges kick in and does anyone have any good routes - I'll be coming in from the A127 / A13 way east to west - Also is London still "empty" around 4am on a Sunday? and is there anywhere else (apart from ACE) to go for breakfast - truck stop is fine, as is some over priced Breakfast Bistro in Camden..

Average speed cameras all the way down a13 aren't time specific so that's going to be crap. Town itself full of roadworks and ANPR and bored coppers.

Not my idea of a fun day out.

Traffic wise you'll be fine ish.

There are no charges or restrictions for riding a bike in London, at the moment. You have to obey any of the usual road laws like bus lanes etc that apply.
