Free, open to all and everyone welcome. The weather forecast says chilly with some sunshine. Perfect cycling weather. The ride starts at 9.30am outside the Park Life Cafe in Chumleigh Gardens (SE5 0RJ) in Burgess Park (cycle map from East Dulwich https://cycle.travel/map/journey/129745). It's a 3.5 hour loop up to the Royal Parks and back again, returning to the cafe at 1pm.


The ride will be the usual easy-paced excursion, using lots of quiet streets and paths, but with some short stretches of busy road. The plan is to go up to town via Waterloo Bridge, Covent Garden and Bloomsbury to Regents Park. There will probably be time for a coffee stop there, before going on via Marylebone to Hyde Park. The group will do a circuit of Hyde Park, (may be extending into Kensington Gardens), then down through Green Park and past Buckingham Palace and St James Park. There is segregation from Parliament Square, up Birdcage Walk, across in front of the Palace and then along Green Park and across into Hyde Park where there is a whole lot more. It's very good and well worth enjoying if you haven't already been up there.


The route back comes over Westminster Bridge, through Kennington back streets to Burgess Park. Jane will be leading and the route is at https://gb.mapometer.com/cycling/route_4989284.html.

    • 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.
