PICNIC 2022

The Healthy Rides annual picnic will be in Greenwich Park on Saturday 13th August. As in 2018 and 2019, this is being organised in collaboration with Harry Clark's Bexley group, now the Let's Go group. This year we have invited riders from other groups including Lewisham Cyclists and Greenwich Cyclists. We would welcome any cyclists who are interested in social rides - you do not have to be a regular Healthy Rider. And family members, children etc are not just allowed but encouraged.

Arrangements. Get to the Bandstand in Greenwich Park for around 12 noon. Note the Bandstand is fairly central, on the right along the wide path running east from the Pavilion Cafe, Lat-Long 51°28'35.2 N 0°00'11.1 E. Bring food and drink. There will be some organised (sort of) activities - the slow race is always a crowd pleaser. Harry has also arranged for the Met Police Bike Marking team to be there, so an opportunity to make your bike more secure.

Getting there. Make your own way. Or join the led ride. Meet at 10.30 at the Dulwich Clock Cafe in Dulwich Park, or 10.50 in Peckham Square (Peckham Library, Peckham Pulse Leisure Centre) or 11.20 in Deal Porter Square (Canada Water Library). No registration. Just turn up.

Note there will be no Healthy Ride on the 13th.

Healthy Rides Picnic tomorrow, Aug 13th. Greenwich Park, by the bandstand, 12 noon. This is open to any cyclists who are interested in social rides. And family members are welcome.


It is going to be HOT, maybe 35 degrees. There will be plenty of shade in Greenwich Park. Nevertheless please bring lots to drink and dress appropriately.


Led ride available starting Dulwich Park Café at 10.30 and calling at Peckham Square at 10.50 and Deal Porter Square (Canada Water) at 11.20. For anyone needing a led ride back, this will be available and is likely to leave Greenwich Park around 2pm.


See you tomorrow!

    • I didn't say wedge it "slightly" open. I meant to wedge it fully open. 
    • I have a rescue Spanish greyhound (galgo) from the charity mentioned above. You can contact Greyhounds in Need or one of the more local Kent greyhound rescue charities. They are fantastic family dogs. They do love walkies 2 or 3 times a day but they actually don't need to be walked too far and then they will happily loaf around on the sofa being very chill. They are brilliant with kids but not recommended if you own a cat as they have a strong prey drive. They also should be kept on the lead in local parks. They prefer to be around other sight-hounds (well my one does) and there are loads of local sighthound owners in Peckham, Crystal Palace etc and a very lively WhatsApp group that is brilliant if you need dog sitting as you can usually find someone to do that for free in return for you looking after the dog at a later date etc.
    • @Jenijenjen I assure you we are always polite and friendly too! Which is why the behaviour we have been receiving is so frustrating. The kids always leave her with a “Thank you have a lovely day”  Our concern is leaving the gate slightly wedged doesn’t stop the action of slamming it open and closed…still leading to damage  
    • If you're talking about who I think you are, I find them more exuberant than rude and usually smiling and polite. But then, I'm usually smiling and polite to them. Can you not wedge open your gate when you're expecting them?
