A new Healthy Ride to be led by our experienced Ride Leader Eva B. Eva will be leading a fairly flat ride on a Mosaic theme including the mosaics at Queenhithe, Shepherdess Walk, Hackney Hounds and a few inspired by William Blake themes. The route (and coffee stop) is not yet finalised. Start at 10 am at the Needle near London Bridge, ca 20km, ca 2½ hours. 
Ride 2, Peckham to Shooters Hill  < https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/peckham-to-shooters-hill-ride-tickets-941350363277 >  Aim is to get to Severndroog Castle on top of Shooters Hill. Start time 10am, Bruce leading. Start/finish Peckham Square (Peckham library, Peckham Pulse Leisure Centre, SE15 5RY). Duration 3.5 hours including refreshment break. Outward route uses bus lanes on busy A202 and A2 to Deptford Bridge. Then off road and quiet roads to Eltham Well Hall via Lewisham and Kidbrooke Village. Brief stop in Well Hall Pleasaunce to prepare for the summit ascent. Ride through the foothills to the southwest corner of Jack Wood, then the steep (but short) path up to Severndroog Castle. Plenty of time to just walk up - really steep section only 300m long. Fast return route using initially busy Shooters Hill Road, then the underpass at the Sun in the Sands roundabout and quiet streets to Greenwich Park. Whiz down the hill in the park and more quiet streets to Cycleway at the Halfpenny Bridge. Cycleway 10 to Surrey Canal Rd, then Bridgehouse Meadows and quiet streets back to Peckham Square. Bruce leading, route at https://bit.ly/2Fv5z5Z. Last rode this route April last year, report here.

    • Most women are killed by someone they know, not a stranger. However I think all women moderate their behaviour when on their own, walking at night especially as they fear danger.Two interesting articles https://www.statista.com/statistics/288298/female-victims-of-homicide-england-and-wales-by-relationship-to-offender/?srsltid=AfmBOoqZ9-CIEJWe9kesKy2G_KWxjXPh-tXMRsLvKim0M6mS00dksiKH https://www.theguardian.com/education/2025/sep/23/majority-of-girls-and-young-women-in-uk-alter-behaviour-to-feel-safe-study-finds?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other   Other crimes https://crimerate.co.uk/london personally I always go for the most crowded train carriage late evening and I carry my keys in my hand when walking from the train station…. It’s that fear of violence that is scary …
    • What ever they decide I would have thought that the skate park would not be staying but really hope I am wrong as in my minds eye, I see the skate park as potential parking spaces after all if it is going to be community, flats, retail units, cafe, etc folks are going to want to have the parking availability - Amir like the parade of shops opposite. if the skate park goes then I think it is Dulwich Estate obligation to find another suitable area… a lot of community spirit and hard work went into developing the skate park and the youngsters should be very proud of what they have done  and achieved. 
    • Hi all My car was stolen between 1.30pm-1.50pm today in SE22 East Dulwich in South East London. I have of course reported this to the police but not much is being done, so I thought I'd give this a shot. The registration is GM66YOV, though its possible the licence plate may have been changed by now. If you see it anywhere please contact me or the police. Thankyou!
