Cyclism
This well-established group organizes varied and varying rides through the week for anyone interested in cycling locally. See their website.
Local maps
Transport for London has good quality printed cycling maps available at no cost. They also have a cycle journey planner and other useful information.
Although its map is not particularly helpful to plan safer or quieter routes, Sutton Council has produced a Sutton Cycling Guide for download. It also lists local cycling shops.
There are many route planning apps/ websites. Here are a few which may be of interest:
| CycleStreets | CycleMap iOS/Android app | OpenCycleMaps |
| Citymapper | GPsies iOS/Android app | CycleMaps iOS app |
| Bike Hub iOS/Android app | Strava iOS/Android app | Sustrans |
