sociable cycle ride Sat December 10th

Recommended Posts

Dec 10th 10am - 12 noon

The plan is to repeat last year?s December ride to Blackheath and Greenwich Park. The ride starts at Canada Water Library at 10am and goes east via Southwark Park, Quietway 1, The Deptford paths, Brookmill Park.


Regrets and apologies but there is a steep (but short) uphill up Morden Hill. The section on Q1 will pass the 2 new cafes featured in Bruce's blog on this page http://healthyrider.weebly.com/bruces-blog.


You have to scroll down past some stuff about health to get to the post about the cafes. The two new cafes have appeared on the Q1 route, one at Dunton Rd and one 2 miles further east at Folkestone Gardens. The one on Dunton Road is highly recommended.


Probably there won't be time to stop for coffee on the ride but you can come back later once you know where they are. The route back will be along the Thames path (Nat Route 4). A map of the whole thing is at https://goo.gl/NeIuSd


Usual prompt return to Canada Water for 12 noon. For more info contact Bruce on 07729 279 945

    • There are "plans" to build more reservoirs, with physical work yet to be started, with the first hoped to be completed by 2036, and a second by 2040, then time is needed for them to fill so add at least another 12 months on. However, if the 1.5 million homes are built by 2028, each averaging 2 people occupying them.(some will be more, some will be less) then thats 3 million people showering, bathing and using water.  Therefore there is a massive demand that will strain our current inferstructure between 2028 and 2037 (nearly ten years) plus all those homes will need electricity, as the ambition is to phase gas usage out, which will take just as much time to reinforce the network to cover, let alone add in the ability to cope with green production electricity that needs to be moved from wind and solar farms to where it is most needed.  Therefore, is the current plan to build more homes, regardless of where they are,  potentially going to have serious ramifications on already creaking networks ? 
    • SDCAS is doing important work and needs our help - please consider supporting them at this difficult time. 
    • Cheers for that. Surprising to see it's over 25 years since it closed.
    • Definitely this. I'm really quite shocked at my naivety when I look back. As for feeling safe in central London, after many, many years of working there and thriving, I don't feel quite so safe now. I think though that spending a lot more time in the relative peace of East Dulwich since retiring, the noise and speed of everything in central London has become a shock to the system and I'm disoriented. More so north of the river.
