On Feb 12th we will have 2 rides, one 3 hours and one 2.5 hours. Registration on Eventbrite as usual. Note if all places are already booked it is worth checking back as there are occasional cancellations during the week and also going on the Wait List. If you cannot make it, please cancel so that someone else can take the place. Even at the last minute it is worth cancelling.

Feb 12th Ride details

Canada Water, Greenwich, London Bridge Loop.

10am to 12.30pm. Start/finish Deal Porter Square, opposite Canada Water Station, SE16 7AR.

      Hello:  Can anyone recommend a football club where girls age 7 years old can play?   Ideally in SE21 / SE22.  Thanks,

      That's not what I said and you know it.

      I disagree, it was pretty filthy back then, plus the issues that Southwark have had were the ones left by EA.

      Cyclist visibility

      I've been cycling in London for decades. The two times a vehicle knocked me off my bicycle, were in conditions that were well lit (one was daylight) and the night time one was just me and the vehicle on the road. Both the driver's fault. The point it that most drivers are perfectly capable of seeing a bicycle in most conditions, just as they are capable of seeing a child or dog run out in front of them. Who knows why a small percentage are incapable of doing that, but gaslighting the victim is not the answer. Are there wreckless cyclists? Sure. Just as there are reckless drivers and pedestrians. But it's worth remembering that millions of roads users navigate their journeys perfectly safely every day. As a driver, you are taught to check your mirrors regularly (not just when considering an manoevre), and the first rule of the Highway Code, is to always avoid an accident if you can. My attitude when using the roads it to always expect someone to do something stupid/ wreckless. I look for it. That is the best way of avoiding any accident, no matter what form of transport you use.
