Rides for May 21st


Peckham to Kings Cross


10am start from Peckham Square (next to Peckham Library and Peckham Pulse Leisure Centre, SE15 5RY). 3 hour ride. Everyone loves the new developments at Kings Cross. Ride will stop in Granary Square with time for a coffee break and a bit of a look round. Outward route down Canal Path to Cycleway 10 (Q1). Ride this to Blackfriars Rd, then switch to Cycleway 6. This goes over Blackfriars Bridge and up Farringdon Rd before branching off through quiet back streets and over safe crossings to Kings Cross. Return leg will take a more easterly route: The Angel, City Rd (passing the Eagle pub of ?Pop goes the Weasel? fame), then Bunhill Cemetery, Guildhall, Southwark Bridge and local routes back to Peckham. Flat route with lots to see, come and join us. Amanda leading.


Four Parks and a Velodrome


10am start from Dulwich Park Caf? (Dulwich Clock Caf?, SE21 7BQ). 2 hour easy-paced ride round Peckham Rye Park, Ruskin Park and Brockwell Park. Nearly all quiet streets or paths. A bit of up and down but nothing prolonged (and you can walk if necessary). At the finish will call in on Herne Hill Velodrome and watch the action. Have not been in there for a while, so looking forward to that. Bruce leading. Anyone welcome, as long as you can point a bike in the right direction. Route at

May 21st, this Saturday's rides. Amanda's ride to Kings Cross is fully booked with several on the Waiting List. In contrast, Bruce is leading a four Parks and a Velodrome ride from Dulwich has just tw riders!


This would be a very good ride for less confident cyclists. Short route and lots of riding in parks. If you know someone who needs a bit of encouraging to come on a ride, maybe persuade them to try this short ride on Saturday.

    • Hello! We are relocating abroad and so will be withdrawing our two children (ages 4 and 6) from St Dunstan’s College (Catford). If any family is considering enrolling children of a similar age, now would be an excellent opportunity—we’re required to pay full‑term fees unless the places are taken. Please get in touch if you’re interested or know someone who might be. Thank you!
    • Hi  I really thought I'd seen a more recent post on the forum about home education meet ups. I can't find it though. Hope some of these might provide leads. https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/137603-home-schooling-advice-anyone-wants-to-do-it-together/#comment-1092093 Very old post but group seems still to exist: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/92044-home-education-local-group/#comment-954837 You could try contacting this forum member: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/325368-classroom-support-for-home-education-community/#comment-1621064 Two of these left for right now: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/events/event/1025-🌟-teens-11-try-painting-sculpture-street-art-at-holiday-workshops/
    • Thanks for your reply. I’ve subscribed to Ancestry a few times in the past but felt I wasn’t using it enough to warrant keeping up the subscription.    
    • Hi, I saw your post and just wanted to say that the incident you’re referring to did happen in the late 1980s at Dawson’s Heights. The person involved was named Carl Salawa, and he had just turned 18 years old at the time. Like you, I haven’t been able to find any news articles or official reports about it, If anyone remembers anything more about that time or incident, I’d really appreciate hearing about it. Thanks for sharing what you were told—it means a lot to know others remember.
