NOTE 1. Please register for rides on Eventbrite so we can limit numbers, links below.
 
 
On the 16th Nov we have 2 rides, both popular in the past. Amanda leading her annual ride to Camden Market (9.30 start) and Bruce with usual 10am start heading to Battersea to the Power Station and Park.
 
Camden Market.  < https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/london-bridge-to-camden-market-cycle-ride-tickets-1075712066749 >  Camden Lock – shops, markets, cafes, busy.  On a ride, normally avoid it.  However, it is a great destination – and lots of options for a coffee stop. Start 9.30am (note early time) at Southwark Needle (south end of London Bridge, close to the station, SE1 2PF) with Amanda leading for an estimated 3.5 hour ride. Outward route along south side to Westminster Bridge, then Buckingham Palace, Hyde Park, Marble Arch, Baker St, Regents Park Outer Circle, Camden High St. Return via Canal Tow Path to Kings Cross Granary Square, Cycleway 6 to Farringdon, up Ludgate Hill and past St Pauls.  Down to Cycleway 3 and if time loop over Tower Bridge and Tooley St back to London Bridge. Some roads with lots of traffic. But pretty much non-stop sight-seeing and photo-ops!

Battersea Power Staton and Park.  < https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/peckham-to-battersea-power-station-and-park-cycle-ride-tickets-1075738014359 >  Everyone welcome on this easy , flat ride. Battersea Power Station wil be dressed up for Christmas and Battersea Park is always worth a circuit. Start 10am Peckham Square, next to Peckham Library and Peckham Pulse Leisure Centre. Bruce leading. Route out via Burgess Park and mostly quiet streets to Nine Elms (American Embassy, Sky Pool). Short stop at Power Station (Christmas decorations; Ice Rink) then circuit of Battersea Park with probable coffee stop there, Return via Larkhall Park, Myatts Fields and Burgess Park. Back at 12.30. Riders can also join at Burgess Park Café, Chumleigh St, SE5 0RJ at 10.20. Please indicate at registration if you plan to do this.  Route map at https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=1focj7gj7Pa4NiRUgKKeKc4M7X0qWvJM&usp=sharing
 
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. If you cannot make a ride, please cancel so that someone else can take the place. This ride is part of a regular programme of Saturday rides, more information at https://southwarkcyclists.org.uk/healthy-rides/

    • Big recommendation for Stephen Viccary who has created a magnificent bathroom for us. Quality of work is absolutely top notch. We couldn't be happier - see pics.  Stephen is considerate and tidy meaning working from home during the work was fine (some noise - obviously, it is a demo and installation after all. He does not work on multiple jobs, does a full days work and does ALL the work himself - Tiling, plumbing, lighting (including lighting on a motion sensor under the vanity and in the shower niche - for night time visits 😉), he even changed the door architraves, sorted the badly cracked ceiling and did all the paint work. A full end to end service. Stephen's number - 07941 266 145
    • Highly recommend Dulwich Eco Gardening.  When he came to quote Saied said he’d give our garden back so we could decide what we do next.  Under two weeks of hard work from Saied and Mo and we have the garden back and can see paving I’d forgotten about. Not only did Saied remove our very overgrown greenery. Nature had taken over. He also took back to our fence line overgrown ivy, apple and pear trees and and dealt with a neighbours bamboo that had invaded our garden.  We are now going to get quotes for what we do next so those quoting will be able to see the space.  Saied has suggested someone to quote and will be coming back when he does in case he has any questions or they can work together.  I thought Saied would be a good choice and he was. Quotes from others didn’t leave me with confidence for the end result. That was never a concern with Saied.
    • Having a BBQ (fingers crossed) in 2 weeks and need a small BBQ for veggie bits and any spare benches or garden tables and chairs to borrow to add to mine. Any going? Thanks in advance...
