bike train to central London May 16th 7.45am

[Sally Eva]

We are using QW1 (map attached). London's best and in some ways only (decent) quietway. It's Greenwich to Waterloo and passes within half a mile of Peckham with a quiet linking route. TfL don?t approve of signposting how to get to Quietways (don?t ask) so we can?t have any signs pointing the way. But you can come with us and we?ll show you.

The Bike Train leaves Nunhead station at 7.45am , and leaves the Peckham Rye station at 7.55am. Departures are from the bike stands behind McDonalds on the north side of the station. We all know where McDonalds is even if we don?t go there.

Then full steam to Quietway 1 and full steam to Blackfriars Bridge by 8.30am. From there protected lanes lead north towards Kings Cross, west towards Westminster and east towards Tower Bridge. The most dangerous bit of your ride will be Rye Lane.

Return rides arranged on request. The train is led by me and I?m 65. My pace is sedate. I haven?t outpaced anyone for a long time. It?s all free. There is no catch. It?s helpful if you text me to say you are coming: 07842 640 207 or email [email protected] for more info.
