Hi Alfie

Check out http://www.southwarkcyclists.org.uk - if you use the egroup tab and join up you can ask there

Also see the trian assisted rides at http://www.centrallondonctc.org.uk/

It is turning into a meadow for wild flowers etc - not sure about the paths etc

Friends of Peckham Rye Park should keep you up to date if you ask?

So right - All OK until it started to rain at about 3pm just as the big motors were coming out for the motor paced and that was that - except for the beer tent of course :-)

And assume all know about the Good Friday international event?

If not see ....

Something for the environment .......... :-)

Can I suggest a mob handed approach? Not suggesting violence of course!

What i mean by that is wait, as I do sometimes for one or two cyclists to catch me up and then I follow as best I can.

Or perhaps Southwark Cyclists could help with this for a while with members waiting wearing yellow tabards or summat for 3/4/5 cyclists to arrive and then riding through?

Says Andy as a Southwark Cyclists member

Jonsuissy, v sorry to hear this - I came along there, turning right into Mawbwey Street @ about 20:45 and it was deserted, and ditto all the way up to the Pulse

And do agree Mawbey Street is a boneshaker!

Stevie - guys doing the burst in Elland Road on Sunday said that it was not so much water freezing in the pipes as water freezing in the soil around the pipes and splitting the old cast iron pipes laid down here in 1890 or so

They went on to say lots of burst and leaking pipes could come from lots of soil / ground movement for other reasons than freezing - e.g. heavy traffic on roads not designed for them

Have to say Thames water deserve thanks from around here - a major burst in Elland Road SE15 at about 2pm was fixed by 9pm or so

Hmmm - re suggesting a route, the first choice for me would be "which bridge" ? In other words where exactly are you going? PM me if you wish?

Would going over Lambeth Bridge and through the Victoria back streets work?

Or do you want to cross the river further west?

Best

Andy

A little off topic perhaps, but I always collect visitors from East Dulwich station - just one up the line and parking possible in the road by the garden centre, at least on weekday day times - few plnat buyers there @ weekends!

I'll add a vote for Zen - although you get what you pay for - and we use their business offering not the domestic one

Also recommend appriver.com for a spam / virus filtering solution providing you have you own domain - e.g. in [email protected] "someone.com" is the domain

Hmmmm - thanks - we use a fixed IP address as we run a mail server locally and Virgin do not do fixed IP at reasonable prices :-)

Now have BT doing and "E" and "D" side cable change change and a "lift and shift" (move from one line card to another). If that does nor work we will try a "reprovision" and then using another 'phone line

Hi Klaus

Interesting - thanks - so many things that can affect your line - the new version of PC Pro makes interesting reading - that is the July 2008 issue of course!

No idea what is afffecting yours?

And yea re routers - we have three "in use" since our connection started to wobble on 28/2/2008 - a Vigor 2800, a Speedtouch ST546 and a Netgear DG834 flashed up from version 3 to version 4 - plus four filters which we cycle through when we have an outage in case one or t'other has gone down at our end - about as exciting as watching paint dry :(

Hope it improves

Andy

People here should be helpful ......

http://www.southwarkcyclists.org.uk/

Actually more of you on this Exchange that I thought if you put your post code into the relevant page on www.samknows.com - look like everyone east of Lordship Lane at least

So all / any feedback welcome

And see the call for tester on the samknows site - major outing of poor ISP's practice in prospect B)

Hi

Is anyone else here getting their ADSL from the New Cross Exchange? I know most will be on the Dulwich Exchange

See http://www.samknows.com

Reason for asking is that our service from there through Zen (www.zen.co.uk) has been up and down since 28/2/2008 with 8 major outages ( aLL > 1 hr, one of three days ) and with one day in April showing 93 line drops. And my tech support colleagues and I are tearing our hair out - what is left of it :) - as BT Wholesale are providing very little information to Zen despite their best efforts - and their best is usually excellent

We do have a back up connection of course but ......

TIA all for any info

Well as a Nunhead residents as well as East Dulwich users we would be interested
