social cycle ride 9.30am Saturday March 17th


Recommended Posts

Early start and later finish. All welcome. All free.


This is one of the Plus + rides which starts at 9.30am in Burgess Park and finishes at 1pm in the same place. Being nearly twice as long as usual it gets a lot further. To Bishops Park, Fulham in fact. I read that as Bishops Park Durham first time but it's not as far as that.


The ride starts at Park Life Cafe, Chumleigh Gardens, off Albany Rd, SE5 0RJ. The organisers like cafes and try to include one or two. The outward route from Burgess Park goes via Battersea Park, Albert Bridge and Chelsea Harbour. There's a coffee stop in Bishops Park (I told you).


Then back via Putney Bridge, Wandsworth Park and Thames Path. This is a flat route on the Thames basin -- about 18 miles. Jane leading. The route is at https://gb.mapometer.com/cycling/route_4698722.html


These rides are organised on behalf of Southwark Cyclists who are the borough branch of the London Cycling Campaign. You don't have to be a member of anything. You don't have to pay. There are no ID or address checks. Everyone welcome - whatever level of cyclist and whatever kind of bike. We are here: https://southwarkcyclists.org.uk

    • 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.
