Where in East Dulwich?


I cycle from South Kensington to near the Harvester avoiding big hills and you could definitely use that route in reverse from Battersea Park. In reverse, it would be via Brixton (via Dulwich Park, Burbage Road, Herne Hill, Railton Road but obviously that will change depending on where you are), along Stockwell Road, down South Lambeth Road and turn down Lansdowne Way, along Wandsworth Road and down Thessaly Road, then a busy stretch along Nine Elms to the roundabout near Battersea Park.


Hope that helps...

I personally enjoy cycling along the South Circular which takes you through Clapham Common and over Battersea Bridge into West Brompton. Afraid you do get a hill each way, but it will make you fit. Avoids the hell that is cycling in terrible traffic in Vauxhall. Despite being the South Circular, it's a stretch that is nice to cycle with plenty of road space. It saves cutting across central London.

Emilou - I cycle to Hammersmith regularly and always try new routes and the one you suggest is the quickest. Distance-wise it might not be the shortest but there are few lights along the embankment so you keep moving.


It's busy but there are lots of cycle lanes and I think it's safer than the back routes where cars are nipping in and out of junctions to beat the traffic. Vauxhall is fine - just take the pedestrian/cycle route under the train line rather than go round the ring road.

    • Corbyn was unelectable - he got trashed by Boris who was a buffoon. It was a good job too because I would have hated to see Corbyn and his rag-tag bunch of far-left university politics backbenchers try to lead the country through Covid.  It is completely understandable why Starmer and the Labour Party want to purge Momentum from within their ranks and Cllr McAsh has fallen victim of that.

    • Hello.   Thanks Nigel and Hparker 😀   I've got new slots available for new students looking for a piano teacher or guitar teacher.   You could start in the new term beginning September, or I'm also available adhoc-styles through the summer holidays at times.   I teach all ages, in most styles, in lots of different ways according to how you learn/like to learn.   Give me a call or text on 07730 402336.   I have connections to lots of performance opportunities/networks too.   I run regular events /student concerts, and play in bands/perform.   Natalie. 
    • So do I, but I think they are in trouble as well.  Anyway, that space wouldn't be big enough.
