sociable cycle ride Sat Nov 18th (earlier start)

By Air and Under Sea - Healthy Ride from Greenwich to the Olympic Park which starts and finishes beside the Greenwich foot tunnel entrance (SE10 9HT). It starts at 9.30 and returns at 1pm.


Taking a bike on the Emirates Airline cable car at North Greenwich is surprisingly easy -- you do have to pay though -- ?3.50 with Oyster Card. The route goes along the Thames to the Airline and then on to the Olympic Park. The return is probably back via the foot tunnel -- not strictly under sea, but the Thames here is tidal and salty.


Route track attached. Be assured the missing bit will be alright on the night! Philippa leading. Part of our regular Healthy Rides series using as far as possible paths and quiet roads. This is a 3rd Saturday "+" ride taking 3.5 hours, so everyone should be back at 1pm.

    • There was a previous thread about them about 6 months ago. Since then, they have been found guilty and fined for illegal street trading and collections in June in the City of London. https://news.cityoflondon.gov.uk/we-r-blighty-pleads-guilty-of-illegal-street-trading-and-collections-in-the-city/  
    • The Government has set an ambitios target to build 1.5 million new homes bu the end of this 4 year term. Possibly unachievable due to various issues in the building industry but ambitious none the less.  What they seem to have failed to plan for, which was brought home by this year's drought, is adding more inferstructure including Reservoirs, power lines and sewerage treatment centres.  Ate they setting us up for more problems in the future? 
    • If you know the layout of the Chequers estate, it is clearly unfeasible and logistically complex to project images onto the facade of the main building. Unless you are the military or something.
