This series of Saturday morning rides won the Rides award at the London Cycling Campaign AGM and organiser Bruce Lynn got the prize for best Ride Leader of 2019. Try them out for yourself. The next opportunity is Saturday October 26th with a parks-ride to celebrate National Park City. More about the awards (and a pic of Bruce) here: https://southwarkcyclists.org.uk/many-awards-for-southwark-cyclists-at-the-lcc-agm/


This ride starts and finishes in Peckham Square (Peckham Library, Peckham Pulse Leisure Centre, SE15 5JR. The weather forecast gets a bit grim on Saturday afternoon but the morning is looking good. London?s green spaces have always been valuable for cycling and this ride celebrates five local parks ? Burgess, Ruskin, Brockwell, Dulwich and Peckham Rye. Indeed London is now the world?s first National Park City, a recognition of just how green it is and a challenge to keep it so.


The route is here:

and riders will go ride anti-clockwise, starting down the Canal Path to Burgess Park. Across the length of Burgess, exiting on Cycleway 17 (Quietway 7 as was).


Then a ride up Camberwell Grove and through past Denmark Hill station to Ruskin Park, a dog-leg around Ruskin Parl to exit at the south west corner and ride via Herne Hill station to Brockwell Park, a shortcut through Brockwell to Rosendale Road and then round to Dulwich park, stopping briefly at Herne Hill Velodrome.


The group will cross Dulwich Park, where the ride on November 2nd will start at the cafe and continuing via the Court Lane exit to Peckham Rye park, up Rye Lane and back to Peckham Square. It's an easy ride, with lots of off-road paths and no serious hills unless you count Camberwell Grove. Come and enjoy a Healthy Ride!

    • Do also remember that, whilst this is the original there is an unrelated FB presence with a (very) similar name, which might also be prayed in aid. 
    • Yet another increase, its absolutely disgusting. I was charged £7.95 to send documents recorded delivery last week. I asked for the Signed for option that only costs £2.50 but the Post Office refused & said they would only send them recorded delivery. 
    • Thanks Admin for clarifying - I’ve now found the post they used to scrape my telephone number from. So it wasn’t a data breach from EDF, rather my foolishness posting it online 15 years ago…    Still leaving this thread here if that’s ok so that people are aware of this scam and don’t fall foul of it (also to think twice before posting phone numbers here as it can be used by any one as I’ve found out!)
    • There is deliberately nowhere to enter your phone number, name, address etc anywhere when registering an account on this forum. There never has been. There is no way to attach this sort of personal information to your account.  If someone says that EDF has given your phone number, then this is a lie. No personal information is sold to any third party and it is not collected in the first place.
