Gloomy but mild: that's the weather forecast for Saturday's social cycle ride. It starts from Peckham Square at 10am -- meeting on arc-shaped bench at the foot of the steps. The route is circular going south,uphill for a while over Telegraph Hill. Then down to the Waterlink Way at Brookmill Park.The only positive thing about going uphill (apart from the view) is coming down again.


Then along National Route 21, over Halfpenny Bridge (LCN 2)(what a delightful name) and on to the Cutty Sark. There will be a brief break there before returning along the river. We will cross the new swing bridge, and then follow Quietway 1 to Surrey Canal Rd.


By now we are ready to turn south towards Peckham again. We follow the lovely path across Bridgehouse Meadows followed by the dreadful non-crossing of Old Kent Rd to Brimmington Park. Then quietish roads and path to Peckham Square.


For route see http://goo.gl/maps/GkEuB. Everyone is welcome. Bruce will be leading and he is on 07729 279 945

    • I read somewhere that it was to be an Orleans Smokehouse, opening in December, which seems unlikely
    • 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.
