two free sociable cycle rides Sat July 6th


Recommended Posts

NOTE. Please register for rides on Eventbrite so we can limit numbers, links below.
On the 6th July we have two rides, both quite short. One is a new ride from Jane, the other a familiar outing to London’s tourist hotspots with Simon K.
 
A new Healthy Ride to be led by our very experienced Ride Leader Jane C. Start: 10h00 at Emma Cons Gardens, The Cut, London SE1 8LN (Opposite The Old Vic, near Waterloo Station). Finish: 13h00 at Emma Cons Gardens. Jane says: ”A 13 mile ride passing some established parks & gardens, street planting and new landscaping from the City to Chelsea, Battersea Power Station & Vauxhall. Should be some lovely stuff to see. We can stop or slow down to take a closer look in places if required but generally we'll keep moving! Usual mix of cycle ways and quieter streets with some short sections on busier roads and crossings at junctions”. The attached image is to give a general Idea of the route – probably be a bit different in practice. Coffee stop at Storey's Gate probably.  
 
Ride 2, Canada Water to Buckingham Palace  < https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/canada-water-to-buckingham-palace-cycle-ride-tickets-937802190597 >  10am. Start/finish in Deal Porter Square, next to Canada Water library and over the road from CW Station,  SE16 7AR. You can also join the ride at London Bridge; be at the Southwark Gateway Needle, south east side of bridge, at 10.20. Easy, 10 mile, 2.5 hour, flat ride that starts along Cycleway 4 then goes across London Bridge, along Embankment (Cycleway 3) and passes Houses of Parliament, St James Park and Buckingham Palace.  Return starts across Westminster Bridge then keeps to the south side of the river, along Lower Marsh, then mostly Cycleway14 - Union Street, Leathermarket St, Tanner St, Dockhead, ending with Thames path route/C14 back to CW. Although we are on some busy roads, most have a cycle lane or bus lane. Possible coffee stop at Dockhead. Ride leader Simon K.  Please indicate when registering if you intend to join at London Bridge.
Riders of all ages are welcome on Healthy Rides but under 18s must be accompanied by a responsible adult.  Same for “adults at risk”.  If you cannot make a ride, please cancel so that someone else can take the place.

    • We've got a Victorian coal hole cellar with a mud floor and after a couple of severe water leaks, I've taken more of an interest in the state of the dampness.  I've been running a dehumidifier for the past couple of weeks following a small water pipe leak and whilst most of the floor is now bone dry, there are damp patches along most of the wall adjoining the next house, a large damp patch in the middle of the floor that will not dry even with the dehumidifier right next to it and a patch of wet mud in a small hollow in the middle of the cellar.  An expert that lent us industrial drying equipment following a flood from a burst mains pipe said there will always be damp, but I'm a bit concerned in case there is a fundamental problem - any ideas from anyone with similar?
    • Best you post when you have an idea of dates  - waste  of everyone’s time
    • Hi there,  Looking for 10-12 jars (to start with) of local honey to fill a small section of a deli space in my work canteen. Please get in touch if you know of any community projects/small scale productions Cheers
    • Yeah, it did work out in the end, but it was way more stressful and expensive than it needed to be. He lost money. He had higher offers early on, but those buyers pulled out because of all the delays. On top of that, he spent a fortune on legal fees trying to get the neighbour to sign off on the freehold transfer. It dragged on for ages. In the end, he was lucky the final buyer stuck with it, but the price was lower, and the whole thing left a bad taste. A lesson learned. Share of freehold can be a real nightmare if the other owners aren’t cooperative. You’ve got to be 100 per cent sure everyone’s reasonable, otherwise it’s just not worth the hassle.
