Recommended Posts

The weather is forecast to be better tomorrow. Hard though that seems today,


This is the Canada Water-Lewisham Loop starting at 10 am from outside Canada Water Library and returning two hours later. The ride continues to explore National Route 21 and follows the northern most section. From Canada Water it heads south through Southwark and then Deptford parks, Folkestone Gardens, Fordham Park and through New Cross.


A bit further south to join Deptford Creek where it turns into the River Ravensbourne. Then back north along the Creek. North up the Creek via the Waterlink Way (N21) to Lewisham Leisure Centre to the Thames and turning back for Canada Water. The route is at https://goo.gl/w4LBUR.

Note: after the ride you will just have time to head to Mile End Park for the Glamour Ride. http://www.towerhamletswheelers.org.uk/glamour-ride/ (and feel free to be all glammed up for the Healthy Ride too!)

    • Dunstans Road  comes under Dulwich Hill SNT- you can get their details on the Met Police website . I know that the Police are often patrolling Dawson Hights. Please contact them,
    • No one is arguing that people should cycle without lights or reflectors. Obviously they should. It is also a legal requirement. But the colour of someone’s clothing? Is it ok to wear navy? What about green? What shade? At what point should we have ‘no reason for sympathy’ if they’re in a collision? I don’t want people to feel like they need special clothes just to walk or cycle. If you have lights and reflectors and you’re on well lit city streets, there is no reason why drivers shouldn’t be able to see you, assuming of course, that they're driving with due care and attention. But yes, if there are lots of people without lights, that should be addressed. I suspect in part, it's the change over in seasons and the fact that people are getting caught out by how early it's getting dark now (obviously no excuse).

    • What a passionate thread this is. I have worked in cycling for years, am a cyclist, a driver, use public transport etc. Driving last night with my two young kids, who also cycle, we made the same observations. It was the kids who first asked me why are most cyclists wearing full black and no lights. We then played a game who can spot all the cyclists, and count those with lights and those without. This teaches them to look out for them but also not to put themselves in a position where we have to strain to find them.
