Recommended Posts

NOTE 2. Please register for rides on Eventbrite so we can limit numbers, links below.

 

On the 11th May we have 2 rides planned. Both scheduled for 3 hours with 10 am starts. Eva is heading SE to Eltham while Jane is going west to Wandsworth Park.

Ride 1.  Eltham Surprises.  < https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/eltham-surprises-cycle-ride-tickets-895593653727 >

Ride will visit the 4 Ps of Eltham - a Pleasance, a Palace, a Pavillion and Parks, plus a Winter Garden. Late coffee stop at the cafe in Oxleas Wood. This ride has 2 fairly steep hills, where the ride leader might step down from the bike and push it up, it’s ca 24 km long and including a visit to the Pavillion and the coffee break stop will take us ca 3 hours. Eva leading. Start at Cutty Sark Gardens, 10 am. 

 Ride 2. Burgess Park to Wandsworth Park  < https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/burgess-park-to-wandsworth-park-cycle-ride-tickets-895588588577 >

Easy paced ride taking an outward route via Battersea Park and Thames Path - will probably return the same way after coffee in Wandsworth Park. The 3 km of path from Battersea Park to the Wandle is always a joy – right next to the river, traffic free and wide enough to relax. About 27 km, Jane leading. Start 10am from the Café in the middle to the park, off Chumleigh St/Albany Rd

 

 Riders of all ages are welcome on Healthy Rides but under 18s must be accompanied by a responsible adult.  Same for “adults at risk”.

Please do not turn up for this ride unless you are registered as we wish to strictly limit numbers.

    • I haven't had a rude EVRI delivery but last week I had an unexpected delivery at 10.42 pm. He didn't ring the bell or knock on the door (or rattle the letter flap) but just took a photo and put the box down.  If it hadnt been for the door camera giving us a beep we would never have known there was a parcel ready to sit there all night.  
    • Sorry if I’m being slow but there’s no point in having a gate then is there?  Would have thought it was basic manners to respect someone’s property 
    • 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.
