Pinner (London) #409 Pro
An 8.2-mile route heading north to Northwood via Northwood Way and looping west through Duck's Hill Road. Reaches 40 mph on semi-rural sections. 2 roundabouts but only 1 traffic light. 11 left turns make this a left-turn heavy route. About 32 minutes.
Watch Out For
- Duck's Hill Road (40 mph). Winding semi-rural road with hedgerows. Stay at the limit when clear but slow for bends and blind crests.
- Frithwood Avenue. Leafy residential road with overhanging trees limiting visibility. Parked cars on both sides.
- 11 left turns, only 6 right turns. Unusual left-turn bias. Check your left mirror before every turn for cyclists.
- Eastbury Road. Narrow with expensive parked cars close to the road edge. Maintain a good gap when passing.
Route Features
- 11 left turns, 6 right turns, 2 roundabouts, 1 set of traffic lights.
- 30 mph residential, 40 mph on Duck's Hill Road, Rickmansworth Road, and Green Lane.
- Returns south via Park Avenue, Kings College Road, and Catlin's Lane.
Test Manoeuvres
- Kerbside stop near the test centre.
Key Tips
- On Watford Road, watch for lorries and vans that may be wider than expected on the narrow road.
- The 40 mph sections through Northwood feel different from the residential areas. Adjust speed confidently.
