social cycle ride 9.30am Saturday Jan 20th

This is one of the Plus rides which starts earlier than usual (9.30am instead of 10am) and lasts until 1pm not 12 noon. It starts at the Cutty Sark in Greenwich and goes under the river to Cody Dock and back.


As always this will be an easy paced ride, keeping mainly to quiet streets and paths. The plan is to ride to Cody Dock which is a small dock off the Lower River Lea, about half a mile northwest from Canning Town. It was nearly derelict but is now being developed by a charity and is the location for several social enterprise projects.


Importantly it has a cafe which has proved hard to drag riders away from in the past. There's a new improved route for this year's ride although the previous one was pretty good. Meet beside the Tunnel entrance. Amanda will be leading.


This ride is run by Southwark cyclists, the borough branch of the London Cycling Campaign, it is free and open to all. Our website is here: https://southwarkcyclists.org.uk. Any questions just PM me before Saturday

    • Anywhere near the Overground/Windrush due to its excellent transport links.  You will get larger place in SE23 for example that will give you enough spare cash for private school if that's what you really want but states schools generally good, reflecting the demographic  Easy to get to the bustling streets of East Dulwich but in ten years see what happens to Forest Hill centre.  The whole of the area is full of green spaces. Access to East Croydon for days out in the South Coast   
    • Could East Dulwich or Forest Hill work? Some properties on Underhill Road and Wood Vale have large gardens e.g.  https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/161079866#/?channel=RES_BUY  You'd be close to the Horniman, Dulwich Park and Peckham Rye. Transport might not be what you're looking for though e.g. a 15 minute walk to Forest Hill station for the East London line or mainline into London Bridge.
    • I would leave London, or at a push move back to north London. In SE London if you want to get away in a car you are trapped, always an hour to go the first 10 miles, chugging up to the M4 or round the south circular, which is really just a line someone drew connecting a load of roads. and I know there are trains but first you have to get to those mainline stations, unless you only want to leave London to go to Kent. which I don't. 
    • It was you who  made it personal in the first place,  Jazzer. You said you didn't feel safe in the streets,  and you said you didn't go to Central London because you didn't feel safe there. So are you now saying that wasn't "personal"? "Fire from the hip." Another interesting choice of words 🙄 I'm not "demanding" anything! I asked you some perfectly reasonable questions in  response to your own statements. None of which you have answered. Never mind. It seems to be pointless having a discussion with you. It's long past my bedtime. I'm going to turn on my sleep app  and go to sleep 😴💤
