Bike Train via quietway 1 Weds Feb 21st

Recommended Posts

We escort you from Nunhead and Peckham Rye to central London. Safe all the way. We leave Nunhead Station at 7.45am; Peckham Rye Station at 7.55am and arrive at Blackfriars at 8.30am. From there we can take you on to your final destination (please give advance warning if you need this). No charge, no tests of any sort. Turn up and go. The ride leaves Peckham Rye station from the bike stands behind McDonalds.


If this sort of thing doesn't suit you -- you don't work on Wednesdays or you don't have to be in work till 11am the we also do Bike Taxis. Info here: https://southwarkcyclists.org.uk/bike-taxi-underway/


The Bike Train will be using Quietway 1 -- currently London's best Quietway, direct, filtered, traffic-calmed and generally highly recommended. It passes close through central Southwark but finding it can be tricky. Transport for London doesn't feel cyclists should be signposted to it (I don't understand this POV). So you have to be on it before you know it's there. Never mind we can show you how to find it -- the route to QW1 is also very safe, filtered, traffic-calmed etc.


Everyone is welcome. The weather forecast is not bad :). Warmer than recently certainly. We can help you come home in the evening -- getting back again is an important part of bike-travel. There are no rules/stipulations or charges except it helps to tell us you are coming. Text me on 07842 640 207. That's it.

    • 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 😴💤
    • Hi Forumites, This afternoon someone in a dark blue/black saloon car collided with my parked car on Thompson Road, SE22 9JR. I have a neighbour’s doorbell cam footage of the collision at 14:30 19/09/2025 but am unable to identify the registration plate. If anyone has footage of a car travelling down Thompson Road towards Crystal Palace Road at that time please PM me. Of course if the Perp would like to confess they can also PM me. Thankyou.
