Feb 19th Ride details


Canada Water-South Bank - Deptford - Canada Water Loop.


10am to 12.30 noon. Bruce leading. Easy ride that uses the relatively new Cycleways across north Southwark. Start/finish in Deal Porter Square, SE16 7AR, next to Canada Water Library and opposite the station. Begin by picking up Cycleway 14 on the Albion Channel close to Canada Water. Follow C14 past the Brunel Museum and the Salter Statues to Jamaica Rd. Small section of C4 and a cycle crossing to Tanner St. Continue on C14 past Guys Hospital and through Flat Iron Square to Blackfriars Rd. Leave C14 here and head north on C6 to Upper Ground and follow this to the South Bank. Possible coffee break here and time for a quick look at the Thames. Continue short distance along Upper Ground and join C10 (Quietway 1) at Cornwall Rd. Route heads back on C10 roughly parallel to C14 past the Old Vic, through Trinity Square, past Crol Caf? on Dunton Rd, over the Connect 2 Sustrans Bridge, past Millwall Stadium, through Folkstone Gardens, eventually to Deptford High St. Probably turn about there and head for the river and pick up National Route 4, the Thameside route, back to Canada Water. This becomes C14 at South Dock and continues through Russia Woodland to the Albion Channel where we first joined it. If you want to become more familiar with the best E-W routes in the north of the borough, this is the ride for you. Route at https://bit.ly/30lzAza.

Start 10am Peckham Square, next to Peckham library and Peckham Pulse Leisure Centre, SE15 5RY. Outward route going over Tower Bridge, through St Katherines Dock to Wapping, then turning onto CS3 for a tiny bit to get to the Yurts Cafe. Coffee break there then return through Limehouse Basin, Ropemakers Park, on to the Thames Path and cut across to Mudchute DLR (bring Travel Pass or equivalent). Alight Greenwich station and go along Greenwich High Rd the short distance to Cycle way 10 (ex Q1), then follow this several miles to Abercorn Way, then left to Glengall Road and the Canal path to Peckham Square. Plan to be back by 1pm. Amanda leading.

    • I’m basing it on the fact that Jeremy Corbyn had repeatedly and on record said he is against mandatory vaccinations in any situation, and he wouldn’t disclose wether he had the Covid vaccine himself    as I said. Not as bad as his brother but very definitely a bit weird about the whole thing. Just say you had the vaccination Jeremy, say that everyone should and stop being weird in the middle of a global pandemic    it’s the same slippery evasive nonsense about Brexit and him. About Putin poisonings and him.     if you are happy with his evasiveness then you do you.  But there is a reason the country wouldn’t get behind him 
    • It was my understanding that Jeremy Corbyn was embarrassed by his brother and had distanced himself from his brother's views. I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong. Why on earth should "the overall view of that family inform Jeremy's response to the pandemic"? What exactly are you basing that assumption on?
    • I guess it's best to do what most Brits do these days, keep your head down and say nothing! although that's probably why this country is in the mess it is today!  😞
    • @Dulwichway Absolutely - I'm in no way trying to say that what happened was life-changing. I've encountered way worse situations and think of myself as pretty tough, which is why I took them on and got pelted. I suppose I'm just taken aback because the park always seemed so safe. But the stats I've just posted contradict that.   I suppose the one of the points of this thread is to point out that they weren't just numpty youths - I'd bet money on some of them being involved in more serious criminality. And to tell others to be vigilant.
