Does anyone have a decent quiet route from ED to around Petersfield? I want to go to a family gathering tomorrow afternoon in a village called Rogate on the A272. I'm looking at the traffic and Clapham Junction trains and thinking meh.


I think I'd prefer to cycle if I can find a quiet route. Not bothered about speed, I can take my time and if there are trains I could get on with the bike, I'll do that. This isn't a Lycra fest racer journey, just a trusty hybrid potter.


Any ideas of routes appreciated.

The National Cycle Route network is generally pretty good - never ridden quite that way myself but looks as though 21>20>22 would take you pretty much there (there seems to be a strange hiatus just before Petersfield but only a few miles out). http://www.sustrans.org.uk/ncn/map?lat=56.54737192673878&lng=-3.142090281250036&zoom=5&route-type=all-routes&filters=


Have a good ride, would love to hear if it's a pleasant route to ride if you follow that one, always on the lookout for new ways to go.

      There’s a couple of Gov petitions going on in relation to fireworks at the moment but this one is for banning them entirely except organised displays if anyone wants to sign. This is the only sensible way forward in my view. No one should be able to let them off in gardens or anywhere like that, it’s crazy. I am surprised some of you have said it hasn’t been as bad this year. I live near DKH Saino and it’s been absolutely terrible my way for days. This petition gained about 20,000 just in the last day or so so clearly the appetite is there! https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/732559

      I'd have thought they could use some of  their income from hiring out a large part of Brockwell Park in the summer (therefore, as I understand it, preventing local residents from using much of it) to put on a firework display there  in the autumn which might somewhat make up to those residents for the previous loss of use of the park. And also generate goodwill.

      Dulwich library closing for refurbishment

      By Sue · Posted

      Clicking on your name, I see you've made seven posts on here since you joined  around four years ago, and they've all been about local libraries. And none of the posts are  very pleasant. Care to share with the rest of us where  your particular interest in libraries comes from? Do you work in one of them?
