Recommended Posts

NOTE. Please register on Eventbrite so we can limit numbers, link < https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/marathon-starts-and-course-cycle-ride-tickets-618476157837 >. If you cannot make it, please cancel so that someone else can take the place (How to cancel).  

Just one ride, but in 2 versions each able to accommodate 15 riders. 

Marathon Starts and Course.  10am start Deal Porter Square, opposite Canada Water Station, London SE16 7AR. The plan is to ride to the marathon area on Blackheath and observe the impressive scale of the preparations for the 3 starts. Ride leader Simon K. is the veteran of many London marathons and will talk a bit about the event. Route outward will go via Greenwich Park, return route may loop inland.  Total distance approximately 9 miles. Aim to be back at Canada Water for 12.30 (gives time for a coffee stop).  For any riders looking for a slightly longer ride Bruce will lead a group that rides with Simon to the start area, then follow the marathon course to Woolwich and back to Rotherhithe. This is first 6 miles of the marathon and will take an hour to ride, so back at Canada Water around 1.30pm.  Please indicate which version of the ride you want by choosing the appropriate “ticket” on Eventbrite. It is also OK to join the ride at Greenwich Park (Nevada St/King William Walk Gate) at 10.30. Please indicate on the Eventbrite registration form if doing this.   

Note, when registering, 2 choices - start location AND short/long ride.

These rides are organised by Southwark Cyclists and are part of a regular programme of Saturday rides, more information at

    • 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!  😞
