Havering CTC: Countryside rides every Sunday from Upminster, very easy to get to from Barking by c2c train - check they're running though.
Also on the first Sunday of each month they have a short, all-comers ride, more geared towards newer cyclists.

I don't know if this recurring event still happens - please check with the organisers below before travelling.

Waltham Forest Cycling Campaign (http://www.wfcycling.org.uk/): Meet 10am Walthamstow Town Square for a 10:15am start on the 4th Sunday of each month. Walthamstow Town Square is by the Central Station, which is only about half a mile from Walthamstow Queens Road station on the Barking to Gospel Oak line.
The ride is free to attend. We recommend bringing a bottle of water and maybe a snack. A spare inner tube is also recommended. We usually stop at a café or picnic location. Under 16s must be accompanied by a responsible adult
