Yes! It is weird, as from there you can get out of London quite well for some good riding...
Mind, I am reduced to RP for a few laps each morning when working there and shall be foudn there again next week... And like you, I find every time I am there, traffic is worse... and I go early in the morning!

Gonna check out the DP evening chaingang soon - reckon it'll be quite lively. Eek.
Just 30 mins on rollers, turning the legs over at a cadence 102.
Having a rest day today :)
Extended commute today. 20km and a decent amount of.climbing as usual on the way in, then rode to the in-laws after work. 33km, mostly flat (downhill on average) in 1hour6 min. Pretty happy with that as I had to check the map a few times.
Beautiful day for riding, cool, clear and all round perfect
Perfect day for riding today here too, mild, sunny, not too windy... Pity I have to work during the day :(
Tonight I have to decide... do I go out on the road with lights for a couple of hours, or do I go and sit on the rollers for an hour?
Road every time out of those two! Never understood the whole rollers/turbo thing myself (but that could be because I've never properly used them)
Got home too late to dare go out on the road, and bailed out on the trubo/rollers option, doing my tax return in stead and a double trac session tomorrow!
20 miles pootling about the Solway and over the new Carlisle by-pass bridge over the Eden!!....not today tho, it was Sunday!! Got back in the dark!
Two hours' spin last night, steady aerobic work.
Another hour coming tonight: 'Anaerobic intervals' - erk.
