NOTE. Please register for rides on Eventbrite so we can limit numbers, links below.  Do not turn up for rides if you have not been able to register.
 
On the 31st August we have two rides, very different in character.  One is a new longish ride from Dulwich to Bishops Park. The other is a shorter ride showcasing the off-road Waterlink Way
 
A 17 mile loop, starting from the Dulwich Park café (Dulwich Clock Café, middle of park) at 10am. Outward route via Brockwell Park and Clapham Common to Wandsworth Bridge, then along the Thames Path to Putney Bridge for Bishop’s Park, where we will have our coffee break. Return via New King’s Rd , crossing the river for Battersea Park, and back via Clapham Common to reach Dulwich Park by 2pm.  Ride leader John S.
13 mile easy cycling route. Start/finish Peckham Square (Peckham Pulse Leisure Centre, Peckham Library). Meet 10am, back at 1pm. Ride to Ladywell Fields, then up and down Waterlink Way. This is one of the nicest off-road paths in London, about 1.2 miles.  Then National Route 21 via Brookmill Park to Cutty Sark. Final leg back to Peckham via Folkstone Gardens and Bridgehouse Meadows.  Easy ride. Bit of uphill at start then downhill or flat. Lots of off road or cycle lane. Good ride for less confident cyclists – and a coffee stop at Ladywell Fields (Good Hope Café).  Bruce leading. Report from 2023 ride https://southwarkcyclists.org.uk/healthy-rides/healthy-ride-reports-2023/healthy-ride-reports-sept-2nd-2023/.

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

    • St.Christopher's never says no! Adult shop, anyway
    • It's such an uneven provision, I live just west of E Dulwich towards Herne Hill/Dulwich Village and there are four Post Office counters within 10 mins walk max. They are all in local shops and provide a great service. 
    • Wanted to come on and do a review for DRJ Builders as I know how hard it is to find good quality and reliable builders in the area! David O'Brien and DRJ Builders are more than that - they are an absolutely brilliant building firm who we can highly recommend. We used them to do a side return extension, loft extension and full house renovation in 2016. They did such a great job, we have just used them again to add on a new rear extension to the ground floor in 2025. David is great to work with from start to finish and has a fantastic team of tradespeople who always deliver a very high standard of work. Would highly recommend them. You can get David on 07960 938621.
    • They do have other lockers where you can drop off parcels, as well as some shops who will take them. If you use the Royal Mail app, or website, you can also arrange for collection of parcels from your house. The service is actually pretty good (and a lot easier than going to the post office). There are a lack of Royal Mail lockers though. Would be good to get some more - perhaps one on North Cross road? They don't need to be outside the Post Office necessarilly.
