NB Please register on Eventbrite so we can limit numbers, links below. 

 We have 2 rides for the 18th Nov. Both are rides we did about this time last year. Amanda’s longish Camden Market ride and my short Streatham Common ride. One from London Bridge, the other from Dulwich. Two quite different rides, so you can choose whichever suits you best. 

NOTE. These are the rides for next week. On this Saturday, Nov 11th, we have the Lord Mayors Show  ride starting at London Bridge < https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/lord-mayors-show-cycle-ride-tickets-750929258627 > and Parks, Cemeteries and a Museum ride from Peckham. < https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/parks-cemeteries-and-a-museum-peckham-to-horniman-museum-cycle-ride-tickets-750916219627 >  

Ride 1.  London Bridge to Camden Lock < https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/london-bridge-to-camden-lock-cycle-ride-tickets-754926614827 >  

Camden Lock - shops, markets, cafes, busy.  On a ride, normally avoid it.  However, it is a great destination – and lots of options for a coffee stop. Start 9.30am at Southwark Needle (south end of London Bridge, close to the station, SE1 2PF) with Amanda leading for an estimated 3.5 hour ride. Outward route along south side to Westminster Bridge, then Buckingham Palace, Hyde Park, Marble Arch, Oxford St, Baker St, Regents Park Outer Circle, Camden High St. Coffee stop. Return Canal Tow Path to Kings Cross Granary Square, Cycleway 6 to Farringdon, up Ludgate Hill and past St Pauls.  Down to Cycleway 3 and if time loop over Tower Bridge and Tooley St back to London Bridge. Some roads with lots of traffic. But pretty much non-stop sight-seeing and photo-ops! Report from last year at https://southwarkcyclists.org.uk/healthy-rides/healthy-ride-reports-2022/ride-reports-nov-19th-2022/ 

 

Ride 2.  Dulwich to Streatham Common  < https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/dulwich-to-streatham-common-cycle-ride-tickets-754945009847>  

 Ride Leader Bruce. Start 10am for a 2 hour ride. Start/finish location the Café in Dulwich Park. Short ride (8 miles), undulating, should be time for a coffee at the Rookery Café on the Common and for a peep at the striking Rookery gardens. Mostly street cycling, some sections a bit busy. Will look in at the velodrome. On the return route excellent views from Norwood Park then finish with a long downhill back to Dulwich. Route at https://www.google.com/maps/d/u/0/edit?mid=1kBbbdTgFkDK21x3M60BAGCWP5FyFhirl&usp=sharing.  Report from last year at https://southwarkcyclists.org.uk/healthy-rides/healthy-ride-reports-2022/ride-reports-15th-oct-2022/. 

If you cannot make a ride, please cancel so that someone else can take the place. How to cancel link: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/help/en-gb/articles/575010/how-to-cancel-your-free-registration/ 

These rides are part of a regular programme of Saturday rides, more information at https://southwarkcyclists.org.uk/healthy-rides/.

Healthy Ride, Peckham to Streatham, has been cancelled. Sorry about this, but family issues mean I cannot lead on Saturday.  No-one had signed up yet on Eventbrite and we have space on the London Bridge to Camden ride, link for registration https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/london-bridge-to-camden-lock-cycle-ride-tickets-754926614827?aff=oddtdtcreator

    • Remember, you never know what someone else is going through behind closed doors....
    • Is anyone else having difficulty booking Silver Swim sessions (Tuesday and Thursday between 3pm-4pm?) Almost all the spaces are taken before the online booking system opens at 10pm several days before. Last night there appeared to be one space available for next Tuesday. I tried to book at one second past 10pm but was unsuccessful. This seems to have been a recent phenomenon. I made a telephone call this morning but just received a recorded message saying that the voicemail box was full. Am I right in assuming that in person bookings are now taking precedence over online ones?
    • I completely agree with you, Angelina. But it's worth noting that no one else has a problem with her, or finds her rude /  has mentioned her aggressively banging gates / ringing doorbells etc. 
    • But I don't think that was what you meant, was it? But he can hardly be held responsible for what somebody else did! Just discovered I forgot to post the above  last night, and now it's overtaken by long posts.  I don't have sufficient knowledge  to counter some of what has been said above, some of which appears to be opinion rather than facts, so it would be pointless for me to say anything else.
