Free, everyone welcome.

This starts in Dulwich Clock Cafe in the park (SE21 7BQ) It's an undulating route on mostly quiet streets. For the suspicious who notice that undulating must mean ups, I agree that it does but they are not stressful. The route starts with a drop-in to see the Velodrome and then winds through back streets to Streatham Common. There will be a break in Rookery Cafe on the Common and then a backstreets ride back. Different backstreets including a diversion via Norwood Park. It will end at 12 noon back at the Dulwich Park cafe.

The route is here:

These Saturday morning rides are organised by Bruce Lynn and friends on behalf of Southwark Cyclists https://southwarkcyclists.org.uk which is the borough branch of the London Cycling Campaign https://lcc.org.uk. Everything we do is free and everyone is welcome. These rides are designed to build confidence and explore safe ways of getting around Southwark and neighbouring boroughs (while making friends and enjoying the world at the same time)

  But all those examples sell a wide variety of things, and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?

  ED is included in the 17 August closure set (or just possibly 15 August, depending on which part of the page you trust more) listed at https://metro.co.uk/2025/07/25/full-list-25-poundland-stores-confirmed-close-august-23753048/. Here incidentally are some snippets from their annual reports, at https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/02495645/filing-history. 2022: " during the period we opened 41 stores and closed 43 loss-making/under-performing stores. At the period-end we were trading from 821 stores in the UK, IoM and ROI. ... "We renogotiated 82 leases in the year, saving on average 45% versus the prior lease agreement..." 2023: "We also continued to improve our market footprint through sourcing better store locations, opening 53 and closing 51 stores during the year." 2024: "The ex-Wilco stores acquired in the prior year have formed a core part of this strategy to expand our store network. We favour quality over quantity and during the period we opened 84 stores and closed 71 loss-making/under-performing ones."
