social cycle ride Saturday Jan 12th


Recommended Posts

This ride starts at 10am from Canada Water library (Deal Porter Square, opposite the station, SE16 7AR) and heads immediately for the station. The plan is to catch the Overground to Sydenham -- the 10.08 to be precise though how precise they will actually be who knows.


Riders can join the ride at Sydenham Overground Station at 10.25am which might be easier if you are coming from East Dulwich or Peckham Rye. All these trains are said to be running. Bitter experience has taught me to check before planning to use the Overground. Though these things can change.


The group will ride down to Bells Green and join the Waterlink Way (Nat Route 21). They will follow this via Ladywell Fields and Brookmill Park until it meets Quietway 1. Then along Q1 through Deptford to Folkestone Gardens. From there go through Deptford Park, along Surrey Canal Linear Path and past Greenland Dock for 12 noon arrival at Canada Water.


It's an easy, flat, 1.5 hour ride with lots of excellent off road paths. Everyone is welcome. These rides are organised by Bruce Lynn and friends on behalf of Southwark Cyclists. We are the borough branch of the London Cycling Campaign which campaigns for safer cycling in London. Everything we do is free and open to all. You don't need to join anything or live anywhere in particular. The route map is at https://goo.gl/4DQ9Tb. You will need an Oyster or contactless card (fare ?1.50).

    • Plenty for sale online from various ticket vendors but you'll need to part with £250 and upwards by the looks of it. Out of interest i kept an eye on the prices for the England and Italy Euro final. At one point they were on offer for a couple of grand each. On the day sellers were obviously getting itchy feet and prices dropped somewhat but never went any lower than £400. That was a few hours before kick off. There was plenty still available half an hour before kick off.   Having been to Wembley a couple of times for play off finals i found it to be not a great place to watch football. Sat three rows back from the pitch side advertising hoardings for one game and way way up in the gods for the other. We felt to far away from the pitch on both occasions. Up in the goods was just stupid because we felt cut off as well.  I don't think it was rebuilt with acoustics in mind either. Even with most of our 25k fans singing it never sounded loud because it's pretty much uncovered and too open.   Happy hunting!
    • It doesn't work as a commercial venture.  Bit churlish to say I told you so.  I told you so.  I'll send less greetings cards.  What pees me off is international postage where you can no longer send light letters at 10 grammes, normal ones up to 20g, now all at the much more expensive 100 g  Didn't we vote to take back control and price everything according to irrational units like ounces? That's some obscure humour btw   
    • Available from Monday April 8th 2024, 2on2Walkies take pride in doggie care and only walk 2 furry friends at a time. I make sure that they get plenty of doggie interaction and socialisation in the park as well as making friends. Back home happy and tired I always check that the water bowl has fresh water and always make sure the doggie is left comfortable before I leave. I'm fully insured and have a couple of slots available for local walks to either Peckham Rye Park or Dulwich Park.  Thank you!  
    • Why would they only send them recorded delivery? I used the signed for option yesterday.
