Hello Londonistanis,

I live in Finsbury Park, and am currently working in North Finchley. I've
been getting there by public transport so far, but now that the weather is
going a bit less jungle-like, i would like to start cycling.

Any thoughts on a route?

The one time i've been up there by bike, i took a slightly indirect route
in order to skirt the hills: up to the top of the park, then up Wightman
Road, parallel to Green Lanes, to Turnpike Lane, then up round the back of
Wood Green High Road to Bounds Green Road, up there to New Southgate, then
along Friern Barnet Road to North Finchley. I'm actually working a bit up
the High Road, just past Woodside Park, so i could perhaps avoid Tally Ho
corner by going through the backstreets northeast of it.

The route i took home was to go down the High Road to East Finchley, then
on to Highgate and Archway, and then to head over to Finsbury Park from
there. This also skirts the hills, and was very quick coming back, but i'm
not sure how fast it would be getting there.
