Recommended Posts

The guys will tell you what's wrong with your bike and help you fix it. You learn on the job with experienced oversight. You are welcome to come and just watch how stuff is done. Each session is a one-off not a course. What happens depends on what rolls in. It's all free and everyone is welcome.


All this happens indoors 6.30-8.30pm on the first and third Tuesday of every month. The guys will be working in or around the reception area in Camberwell Leisure Centre, in the delightfully named Artichoke Place SE5 8TS. The mechanics carry some small parts like cables but not bigger ones like brake pads or wheels. There are bike shops in Camberwell where such things are for sale and Sea Bass Cycles in Camberwell Church Street is open till 7pm.


The session is run by Bruno Williams on behalf of Southwark Cyclists who fund it. We are the borough branch of the London Cycling Campaign. Our website is here: https://southwarkcyclists.org.uk and the LCC website is here: https://lcc.org.uk. You can contact us directly on [email protected], tweet us @southwarkcycle or text me on 07842 640 207. Everyone welcome.

    • As I understand it Charlie Smith did put himself forward for selection in GG but Labour members chose someone else to represent them, Liam McGrath https://southwarklabour.com/our-candidates/   It'll be interesting to see if there are other defections - surely the Greens want a drip, drip, drip of news from now to May suggesting the momentum is with them. 
    • Thanks for your feedback - we always appreciate hearing from members about their experience. The pool temperature at JAGS Sports Club is maintained at 29oC, in line with industry guidelines for mixed-use pools.  This temperature has been designed to balance comfort for lane swimmers and families. Air temperature is also monitored regularly to ensure a comfortable environment for swimmers, spectators and staff. The shower Temperature Mixing Valves (TMVs) were changed in December to improve consistency, and we hope this has made a noticeable difference. If you would like to discuss your experience in more detail, please contact us directly at [email protected] or 020 8613 6500 and we'll be really happy to help.  
    • One wonders if he would have defected if he had, ahem, held on to the leadership of Southwark and whether he felt that "Labour are no longer the vehicle for social justice" during his leadership election........my how quickly things change in the thoughts of a politician 😉 I think this sums things up quite nicely: A senior Southwark Labour spokesperson hit back: “Local residents can draw their own conclusions about Cllr McAsh’s swift move from Labour leadership hopeful to the Green Party, after he didn’t get his own way. While he’s thinking about his own career, Southwark Labour are delivering for residents.” One wonders if he will stand as a Green candidate in Goose Green.
    • No doubt if he determines to stand for a ward he will enlighten us - at least his track record is one of using this site to communicate (inter alia). I would suspect that (1) his personal views on traffic will have remained consistent but that (2) his views on local democracy and proper consultation will have as well.
