This ride starts in Dulwich Park outside the Dulwich Clock Cafe (SE21 7BQ) and it's an easy ride avoiding any big hills. The outward leg goes via Herne Hill Velodrome and Brixton Windmill. There will be a brief coffee and loo break at the cafe near the bandstand on Clapham Common. The return leg will be via Brockwell Park and Bel Air Park.


This ride is organised by Bruce Lynn and friends on behalf of Southwark Cyclists and we are the borough branch of the London Cycling Campaign. Like everything else we do it is free and open to everyone. All our rides are posted on lcc.org.uk/events -- if it is isn't there it isn't run by us and won't be covered by our insurance. Here is this one: https://lcc.org.uk/events/dulwich-to-clapham-common-southwark-healthy-ride-2?esid=14591


Plus a reminder that there will be a free family cycling event on March 9th. This is run by Cycle Confident and paid for by Southwark Council. It's a 4 hour family cycling taster session in Dulwich Park on Saturday March 9th from 12.30 to 4pm. You don't need to stay for it all. You do need to bring your own bike. If you have friends who do not feel ready for a Healthy Ride, going to an event like this might help to build their confidence.

    • Dunstans Road  comes under Dulwich Hill SNT- you can get their details on the Met Police website . I know that the Police are often patrolling Dawson Hights. Please contact them,
    • No one is arguing that people should cycle without lights or reflectors. Obviously they should. It is also a legal requirement. But the colour of someone’s clothing? Is it ok to wear navy? What about green? What shade? At what point should we have ‘no reason for sympathy’ if they’re in a collision? I don’t want people to feel like they need special clothes just to walk or cycle. If you have lights and reflectors and you’re on well lit city streets, there is no reason why drivers shouldn’t be able to see you, assuming of course, that they're driving with due care and attention. But yes, if there are lots of people without lights, that should be addressed. I suspect in part, it's the change over in seasons and the fact that people are getting caught out by how early it's getting dark now (obviously no excuse).

    • What a passionate thread this is. I have worked in cycling for years, am a cyclist, a driver, use public transport etc. Driving last night with my two young kids, who also cycle, we made the same observations. It was the kids who first asked me why are most cyclists wearing full black and no lights. We then played a game who can spot all the cyclists, and count those with lights and those without. This teaches them to look out for them but also not to put themselves in a position where we have to strain to find them.
