sociable cycle ride Sat Nov 18th (earlier start)

By Air and Under Sea - Healthy Ride from Greenwich to the Olympic Park which starts and finishes beside the Greenwich foot tunnel entrance (SE10 9HT). It starts at 9.30 and returns at 1pm.


Taking a bike on the Emirates Airline cable car at North Greenwich is surprisingly easy -- you do have to pay though -- ?3.50 with Oyster Card. The route goes along the Thames to the Airline and then on to the Olympic Park. The return is probably back via the foot tunnel -- not strictly under sea, but the Thames here is tidal and salty.


Route track attached. Be assured the missing bit will be alright on the night! Philippa leading. Part of our regular Healthy Rides series using as far as possible paths and quiet roads. This is a 3rd Saturday "+" ride taking 3.5 hours, so everyone should be back at 1pm.

    • That is clearly not true. I see car drivers breaking the law on an hourly basis - jumping red lights, speeding, not obeying the general rules. Plus they are operating considerably more dangerous machinery and should have a greater responsibility of care to other road uses. You can see who causes the most harm by the stats. 
    • Looking for a suit for an 11 year old. Quite specific, white with black thin stripes.  Trying to replicate Michael Jacksons smooth criminal costume.  A blue linen shirt and white tie.    Thank you !!!!!!!
    • A quick Google found this, amongst other things: "Social impact models are frameworks or approaches that guide how organizations or initiatives address social or environmental problems."
    • "If it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck then it must be a duck" comes to mind Unfortunately, a large number of cyclists do exhibit selfish amd anti social behaviour which, regardless of how many good cyclists there are, is seen as the norm.  It's a bit like one car driver jumping a red light and all car drivers getting tarred by the same brush. Perception is the issue and if cyclists all obeyed the rules, everyone would be less anti them but unfortunately that isn't the case 🤔
