free sociable cycle ride May 25th (and London Freecycle May 26th)


Recommended Posts

Bit of an unusual weekend coming up.  It’s a bank holiday. And it is Freecycle weekend when, on Sunday 26th, a large loop of central London roads will be closed to motor traffic. This is a great event and especially suitable for families with younger children. Southwark Cyclists will be running a feeder ride starting in Peckham Rye Park at 10am. Ride is fully marshalled to ensure safety. Details at https://lcc.org.uk/events/freecycle-southwark-feeder-ride/,  Details of whole Event at https://www.ridelondon.co.uk/our-rides/ridelondon-freecycle.
 
On the 25th May we have just 1 ride planned, details below.  NOTE. Please register on Eventbrite so we can limit numbers, link below.
 
Ride round all the big tourist spots with Jamie leading.  Start/finish Southwark Needle, south side of London Bridge close to London Bridge Station. Start 10am for an estimated 3 hour ride. Route west along south side of river then over Westminster Bridge down Birdcage Walk up Constitution Hill across Wellington Arch into Hyde Park and along to Kensington Palace for coffee break.
Return up Hyde Park West Carriage Drive, along Serpentine and up to Speakers Corner.  Then back down to Wellington Arch and on to Buckingham Palace, down The Mall, through Horse Guards and across Parliament Sq to the Embankment. Left onto the cycle lane (CS3) along The Embankment with finish past Monument and over London Bridge.  Flat ride with lots of path and cycle lane suitable for any level of cyclist. 
 
 Riders of all ages are welcome on Healthy Rides but under 18s must be accompanied by a responsible adult.  Same for “adults at risk”. 
Always give way to pedestrians and to other cyclists so all path users feel safe (note there is a lot of shared path on this ride). 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/
Note. Ride reports, often with photos and route maps, are posted to the Southwark Cyclists web site, yearly index at https://southwarkcyclists.org.uk/healthy-rides/
This ride is part of a regular programme of Saturday rides, more information at https://southwarkcyclists.org.uk/healthy-rides/

    • I am trying to find out about people's experiences of the 4+ and 7+ assessments. I am a teacher and have a wealth of experience tutoring for theses assessments (including my own son), but it's always good to keep on top of things as they always make tweaks to them. TIA! 
    • "You have no idea why"   To be fair Sue, it's blindingly obvious to anyone who has a conversation with anyone who isn't a Corbyn supporter. And even some who liked Corbyn (like me initially) found him somewhat flaky even at his most popular But let's say you are right and I have NO idea why anybody might not vote for him. They still didn't vote for him. He lost two elections. The second one badly (and strongly predicted but the stubborn old goat wouldn't budge so we we were stuck with Johnson and another 3 million PMs in the 5 years that followed) So even with ZERO evidence, we have our eyes and ears and brains But we do have evidence   https://yougov.co.uk/politics/articles/27022-their-own-words-why-voters-abandoned-labour
    • As I said, it was my understanding. I worded it very carefully. I didn't/don't know for sure, so clearly not a fact. And hardly an "opinion", which is something completely different. You have no idea what reason anybody might have had for not voting for him (unless you can point to some opinion poll results which actually asked people?)
