On Nov 22nd we have one ride, to Battersea, organised so far. We hope to have a second ride as well, keep an eye out for information.
Meet 10am in Deal Porter Square next to Canada Water Library and opposite Canada Water Station. Philippa leading a ride to Battersea Power Station and Battersea Park. Outward route will use National Cycle Network route 4 passing through Pimlico and crossing back over the river to Battersea Power Station and Park. Return route southside. Always lots to see on this route especially this time of year with the big ice rink open at the Power Station. Total distance about 13 miles. Including coffee stop should be back by 1pm.
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. These rides are part of a regular programme of Saturday rides organised by Southwark Cyclists, more information at https://southwarkcyclists.org.uk/healthy-rides/

    • Some people don’t like it, some people will love it.  It doesn’t bother me at all. In fact I quite like it. I do not like assumptions you make about ‘elderly people’. 
    • This concerns me as it essentially disregards the significant number of people who do experience a high level of disruption because of the event.  While it's great that you personally are not inconvenienced, this is absolutely not the case for a great many residents many of whom are elderly or who do not have private gardens and rely on the park.   Great that you have a PHD in ecology but might also be worth reading the report into the environmental impact of Gala which paints a rather different story to yours. This comes round every year with a request to extend. This seems to me to be a distraction to steer everyone away from the main event. However, Southwark Council and Councillor Catherine Rose in particular must bear responsibility for what is effectively privatisation of our community space.  I requested data on the results of the last consultations and had to use a subject access request to get it.  In 2024 the council received 111 responses of which 108 were negative. The event went ahead. Last year they received 136 of which 82 were negative and 34 said only with major changes (which did not happen).   The impact of the event on the community and the enviroment is well-documented.  The council has so far refused to supply data on the demographics of the attendees but it doesn't take much to work out that this is largely single under 30s from out of borough judging by the steady stream of people from the station.   Please do take time to protest and also to email Events as we try to hold the council accountable for their disregard of the public consultation results.

    • I'd like to recommend Marius who recently built bespoke alcove cabinets and bookshelves for me at a very reasonable price. All was done quickly, the units are fitted perfectly and he tidied up after himself everyday. Marius: 07459 195 564
