The bike buddies organiser is Bruce Lynn, reachable on [email protected] or 07729 279 945. He will know how BB handle under 18s (probably with the parent close at hand, I would guess).


Cycle confident are advertising family cycling courses again here: https://www.cycleconfident.com/sponsors/southwark/#events. You can book a family session (need to register first).


Cycle confident are also giving the impression that they are doing basic cycle maintenance courses though there aren't any listed. A few weeks ago they said they didn't have money for them, now maybe they do.


I've replied to jimmah and lordshipmonkey privately, hoping to get a suitable response to their goodwill

I signed up for the bike buddy scheme recently but the person I was paired with doesn't seem available for cycling anytime soon so if anyone wants to go out cycling locally, please feel free to message. I am a female cyclist in my 40s.

Were you looking to be the buddy (ie experienced rider) or were you wanting to be paired with a more experienced rider?

    • Missing Cat! 11 months old/ Our friend, Coco, has gone missing. Last seen evening of 31st October near top of Henslowe rd where it meets Underhill Rd in SE22. We know she has started wandering up Friern Rd and further we guess but we imagine she has been spooked by Halloween / Fireworks goings on. She is a grey Siberian mix with some brown stripes down her, very friendly and likes to eat. Please let us know
    • That said, organised displays could be on Saturday before and after and the actual day, and private ones could just not have the loud ones.  It’s all down to accessibility and people caring/not caring
    • The problem this year is that 5th November falls on a Wednesday. So some places will be bringing their "bonfire night" forward to Saturday 1st and some will be knocking it back to Saturday 8th and there'll probably be a few that just go with Wednesday 5th anyway. If you're doing a public display, having it on a weekend gets more crowds. Which basically means a solid week of fireworks.
    • Fireworks in this area do feel totally incessant at this time of year, almost every evening there is terrible noise. I feel great concern for wildlife, pets (I have a senior cat who hates them), as well as people who struggle with PTSD etc. Last year I even had people setting them off in front of my home. Tonight and yesterday evening have been particularly bad. Is there anything we can do as a community to prevent this? What action can we take? Surely we shouldn’t be expected to just put up with it every year for weeks on end!
