Rides for 9th October


For Sat 9th Oct we plan to have two Southwark Healthy Rides. When you register on Eventbrite, link details below, please give a phone number as it may be needed for Track and Trace. If you cannot make it, please cancel so that someone else can take the place.


Peckham to South Bank


10am start for 2 hour ride. Start/finish in Peckham Square, next to Peckham Library and Peckham Pulse Leisure Centre, SE15 5RY. Outward and return routes slightly different so riders can experience several of the TfL Cycleway routes including a wide range of infrastructure ? the good, the bad and the ugly! Out down Canal Path to join CW10 (was Q1) at Oxley Close, then follow CW10 to Blackfriars Rd where we join CW6 to Upper Ground which we use to access the South Bank. Return via Westminster Bridge Rd, Webber St (part of CW10 ), CW6 south towards Elephant, then the SW bypass route eventually joining CW17 (was Q7) at Brandon St. Continue to Burgess Park then back along the Canal Path to Peckham Square. Easy, flat ride using lots of cycle lane. Route at http://shorturl.at/eiF38


2nd Healthy Ride for Oct 9th


London Bridge to Kensington Palace.


Ride round all the big tourist spots with Jamie leading. Start/finish Southwark Needle, south side of London Bridge close to London Bridge Station. Start 10am for an estimated 3 hour ride. Route west along south side of river then over Westminster Bridge down Birdcage Walk up Constitution Hill across Wellington Arch into Hyde Park and along to Kensington Palace for coffee break.

Return up Hyde Park West Carriage Drive, along Serpentine and up to Speakers Corner. Then back down to Wellington Arch and on to Buckingham Palace, down The Mall and through Horse Guards and across Parliament Sq to the Embankment. Left onto the cycle lane (CS3) that goes past Waterloo Bridge, Blackfriars Bridge and Southwark Bridge. Finish past Monument and over London Bridge. Flat ride with lots of path and cycle lane suitable for any level of cyclist.


These rides are arranged and led by Bruce Lynn and friends on behalf of Southwark Cyclists. We are the borough branch of the London Cycling Campaign. Our website is here: [southwarkcyclists.org.uk] and the LCC website is here: [www.lcc.org.uk]. Like everything we do the rides are free and open to everyone. For more info text Bruce on 07729 279 945 or DM me. I won't know but I should be able to find out.

    • I am  ill in bed with Covid. It's not that I "can't be bothered" to read things. I am feeling crap and don't have the mental  energy at the moment. I am not "brushing stuff aside and pleading ignorance." I am truthfully saying when I don't presently know enough about something to be able to comment. I have always been very careful to try to  differentiate between fact and opinion in both  my posts and other people's, and I am not clear what your point is. And I am certainly not trying to wind anybody up. This is a forum. If you don't want to respond to my posts, that's up to you. I'm not sure why you feel the need to announce it.   
    • @NewWave I know how you feel. Like you, I've lived and spent prolonged periods of time in some pretty crazy places and always thought I could handle a bunch of kids. But, no - they got to me and I was shaking like a leaf afterwards. That's what age does to us.  But I did engage with them, so bear that in mind.  My advice would be to never let anything like that stop you doing the things you love. I'm certainly not going to stop using the park, there's no way they get to take away our cherished spaces!  If you see them, just change tack and keep out of their way. My dog won't even go that way again, so that's that problem solved. (If I see them again, I'm going to keep taking photos from a safe distance). 
    • Truly horrific. Being passive or fighting back is what many of us think about by violent theft. 
    • What ridiculous waste of money
