The website says that Victoria park is off the list because, "based on information from Tower Hamlets Council that there was a possibility of violence in the park."
It's stated under their "news and views" section on the website.
Is this because it's slap in the middle of a Muslim community.
Very sad to see these outdated views been pandered to. It will be a great day when women in Tower Hamlets can feel empowered enough to throw off their burkas and jump on naked and joyfully onto a bike.
I think they should cycle through Victoria Park, not give in to this outdated prudish thinking.
Off with the Burka and On to a Bike. Empower Women Everywhere!
