free bike maintenance July 19th Quietway 1


Recommended Posts

This is Andy, boss of Southwark Cyclists and the man who earns the money which pays for Dr Bike. Led by pro-mechanic Charlie and staffed by Andy and Mike we will be on Quietway 1 outside Crol coffee shop from 5.30-7.30pm tomorrow (ie July 19th).Pix of Andy and Crol are attached.


The Dr Bike team will be hoping to keep cool under the trees beside Lynton Road at the junction with Dunton Road. This is part of Quietway 1, London's best Quietway, designed by a council engineer with input from Sustrans and us. It's good.


You will need to bring a bike which needs fixing. Other than that there are no rules. Anything we can do on the spot we will and anything we can't do we will give you wise advice about. This is the time of year and the weather (combined with the chaos on the trains) in which people's minds turn to cycling. Let us help you get on the road.


This bike maintenance session is free and open to all. It's organised and paid for by Southwark Cyclists, the borough branch of the London Cycling Campaign which campaigns for safer, more enjoyable cycling in London. To take advantage of it you don't need to live in Southwark or belong to anything at all.

    • Hmmm, millions of animals are killed each year to eat in this country.  10,000 animals (maybe many more) reared to be eaten by exotic pets, dissected by students, experimented on by cosmetic and medical companies.  Why is this any different? Unless you have a vegan lifestyle most of us aren't in a position to judge.  I've not eaten meat for years, try not to buy leather and other animal products as much as possible but don't read every label, and have to live with the fact that for every female chick bred to (unaturally) lay eggs for me to eat, there will be male that is likely top be slaughtered, ditto for the cow/milk machines - again unnatural. I wasn't aware that there was this sort of market, but there must be a demand for it and doubt if it is breaking any sort of law. Happy to be proved wrong on anything and everything.
    • I don't know how spoillable food can be used as evidence in whatever imaginary CSI scenario you are imagining.  And yes, three times. One purchase was me, others were my partner. We don't check in with each other before buying meat. Twice we wrote it off as incidental. But now at three times it seems like a trend.   So the shop will be hearing from me. Though they won't ever see me again that's for sure.  I'd be happy to field any other questions you may have Sue. Your opinion really matters to me. 
    • If you thought they were off, would it not have been a good idea to have kept them rather than throwing them away, as evidence for Environmental Health or whoever? Or indeed the shop? And do you mean this is the third time you have bought chicken from the same shop which has been off? Have you told the shop? Why did you buy it again if you have twice previously had chicken from there which was off? Have I misunderstood?
    • I found this post after we just had to throw away £14 of chicken thighs from Dugard in HH, and probably for the 3rd time. They were roasted thoroughly within an hour of purchase. But they came out of the oven smelling very woofy.  We couldn't take a single bite, they were clearly off. Pizza for dinner it is then. Very disappointing.
