Cedges Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 I really want to do this but fear I may die of unfitness! Do you know roughly how long in miles this ride would be? I'm better at judging the distance that way!

damzel Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 Really enjoyed today - thanks! Nice easy pace, the only sweat I built up was after I left you, on the last stretch up hill to my house so definitely keen to start cycling to work now. Looking forward to the next run.

Proj London Health Posted April 15, 2013 Author Share Posted April 15, 2013 Such a great ride yesterday and in the Sun too.* 28th April - Spitlefields: Towerbridge, Bricklane and more.... This is a 'MUST' ride, heading via Peckham library, up the old Surrey Canal to the doorstep and then over Tower Bridge. East bound along the Highway for 1/2 mile and then north bound through the back streets of towards Whitechapel and Spitlefiels.PM me if you would like to be added to the email list!McCabe Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/20129-totally-free-e-dul-cycle-rides-sundays-9-30am-london-pks-blue-plaques-short-rides-dates-tbc/page/5/#findComment-635157 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ideally, wear hi vis and a crash hat :-)We meet for 9-30am and leave 5-mins later heading down Bellenden Road.

Proj London Health Posted April 29, 2013 Author Share Posted April 29, 2013 What a super ride!Gosh! Anyone working in the city and paying 'silly billy' fares to work each day need a 'retrospective checking'. Jump on bike, head back streets to Peckham library, follow the old 'Surrey Canal' for a mile or so, take a few back and quite roads - you are now 500m from Tower or London Bridge!Next ride is to Hyde Park, around the main perimeter, then settle at the caf? opp the Iranian Embassy for coffee and cake.McCabe Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/20129-totally-free-e-dul-cycle-rides-sundays-9-30am-london-pks-blue-plaques-short-rides-dates-tbc/page/5/#findComment-640171 Share on other sites More sharing options...
damzel Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 Thanks for the cycle yesterday. I cycled to work today and got there without a problem but got very lost on the way home and completely over shot the canal path! Obviously didn't concentrate very well on our way back yesterday! Be great if Dan could upload the route we did because I can't work it out. Can anyone recommend good cycle route app? Google map app doesn't have the cycle option like it does on the internet.Thanks McCabe, looking forward to the next one Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/20129-totally-free-e-dul-cycle-rides-sundays-9-30am-london-pks-blue-plaques-short-rides-dates-tbc/page/5/#findComment-640174 Share on other sites More sharing options...

LadyDeliah Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 I'm not so inundated with work and stress now, so I might try and get out on Sunday. I liked the bike rides I went on last year and feel like I should really pull my finger out now the weather has improved.

Proj London Health Posted May 10, 2013 Author Share Posted May 10, 2013 You bet Hyde Park is on!The Weather suggests that its going to be warm and sunny in the morning and clouding over in the afternoon.Will meet for the usual 9-25am at the Texaco Garage by Goose Green and head off on the dot for 9-35am. Bellenden Road, take a left up to Camberwell, Oval, Vauxhal (dismount and cycle path to Vauxhall Bri), then back on the road and up to Victoria, Hyde Park. We will then take an anti clockwise ride in the park to Speakers Corner, and then along to and over the Serpentine. Our finally destination is the caf? opp the Iranian Embassy.**New Ones**This is totally FREE and at an easy going pace. No jumping redlights, cycling on pavements and advisable to wear a high vis top and helmet. Bring some change for tea and cake!Best!McCabe.

Proj London Health Posted May 12, 2013 Author Share Posted May 12, 2013 Just updated the next ride to search out the London 'Blue Plaques'.Rather than trying to do zillions at one time, we can sector it to parts of London as the rides continue into Autumn. The following ride will be to Southwark Park and the next to the Cutty Sark in Greenwich.Today was a great ride with the weather and sun just about on our side. As always, I took the team past my favourite restuarant in Chelsea enroute back called 'Buona Sera at the Jam', 289 Kings Road.And, we were back indoors for noon!McCabe Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/20129-totally-free-e-dul-cycle-rides-sundays-9-30am-london-pks-blue-plaques-short-rides-dates-tbc/page/5/#findComment-644273 Share on other sites More sharing options...
