three free social cycle rides Sat Sept 17th

Recommended Posts

Three rides this Saturday, one from Dulwich and 2 from Peckham. With 2 rides starting at once need to ask riders not to form a group bigger than 6. Note the Covid regulations say ?avoid social interaction with anyone outside the group you are with, even if you see other people you know? . So please at the start and finish of rides:

Keep in your groups of 6

Only talk to those outside your group away from the group and socially distanced.

Consider wearing a face mask.


Please give a phone number as it may be needed for Track and Trace


You must register on Eventbrite, see links after each ride's details below


If you cannot make it, please cancel so that someone else can take the place. Even at the last minute it is worth cancelling.


We will keep everyone as safe as possible by observing all the Covid Regulations. Most importantly we will be maintaining routinely a 2m social distance, never less than 1m. Particularly important to maintain social distancing from other users on shared paths. Always give way to pedestrians and to other cyclists so all path users can maintain 1-2 m and feel safe. Just in case we need them, good idea to bring a face mask.


Please do not turn up to this event if you are displaying symptoms of Covid-19. The safety of our volunteers and participants is key to us.


We may contact you after the ride to ask you about your experiences and will let you know more ways to sign up to information from the London Cycling Campaign

    • 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).
    • Found it but cannot contact owner as no email or message on it. e*****@icloud.com   please let me know if you’ve recently lost an Apple Watch SE
    • 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.
