longer sociable cycle ride Saturday Oct 21st

Recommended Posts

This is a Plus ride starting at 9.30am at Burgess Park Cafe in Chumpleigh Gardens (SE5 0RJ) and finishing there at 1pm. A picture of the cafe is attached. It's properly called Park Life Cafe. It may not bear a close resemblance to the picture in the third week of October.


The early start is to get further west on the south side of the Thames than ever before. The late return is to get back. There will be a cafe stop in Wandsworth Park, but with luck we will get all the way to the Putney riverside where the Boat Race starts.


The outward leg will be across country to Battersea Park, then along the excellent riverside paths through Battersea and Wandsworth. The return will head down the Wandle in King George's Park and then turn east at Earlsfield and head home via Wandsworth Common and Clapham Common. 16 miles and reasonably flat. The route is here:



This ride is organised by Southwark Cyclists. We are the borough branch of the London Cycling Campaign. Everything we do is free and you don't have to be a member or live in Southwark to join in.

    • Generally speaking, some medium size market towns and lesser cities always seem more  prone to random violence and aggro generally than anywhere I’ve been in London 
    • Familiarity is important, I lived near Brixton in the old days and was fairly comfortable, but for many years avoided Peckham.  That has reversed in the last 15 years.   I recall around Dalston and the A10 and burned out cars.  Now super trendy. Pub violence has largely gone but that was groups of men getting drunk on Saturday night and brawling.  Similarly little football violence, East Dulwich/West Peckham was edgy last century.
    • ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️   Rod comes highly recommended. He recently completed a challenging job in my garden, fox-proofing an outhouse using a large amount of hardcore and slate. The work involved a great deal of effort, but Rod handled it with professionalism and care from start to finish.   He specialises in working with stone, and it really shows in the quality of his work. He is also an incredibly hard worker, tackling the project with determination and skill. Throughout, he was responsive and reliable, always keeping me updated and communicating clearly.   I really appreciated the practical advice he offered along the way, which showed both his experience and his commitment to doing the job properly. On top of all that, his pricing was very reasonable, and he was an absolute pleasure to deal with.   If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, hardworking, and knowledgeable, Rod is an excellent choice. His number is 07739180197
