Cycle sprints in Dulwich - College Road Toll Gate


Recommended Posts

Cycle Dudes!


This is a new pilot cycle sprint event for all ages / abilities - and in Dulwich too! I'm looking at College Road and into Fountain Drive up to the roundabout. If you are a cyclist, its though! If you are a fit cyclist, its even tougher as its a timed event!


I've chosen this route as its quite, no intersections (some side roads), there are cycle path markings and its long and steep.


Distances: c.800m

Style: Out of the saddle all the way! (I'm tempted to remove seats - but for H&S I had best not!)


** Pilot **

This is adding to the existing fitness groups from jogging, cycling and etc...


Its also a starting point to build upon and keeping you local. If you are into challenges, please respond on the forum or via PM.


If you don't know me, I'm a team builder through fitness - while I train members of the forces such as the SAS, RAF, Naval and Police, I also work with those in remission, stoke survivors, parts of body removed etc, so I am there to cater all.






Best!

Can you do it?!!!


Its local and fairly tough - it would be great to have a monthly spint up hill locally. You can be on a:


* 3-wheeler,

* Brompton,

* Dutch upright bike (sorry, don't know their name),

* montain bike, or

* full on road bike.



To make sense of this, I need a bunch of crazy people to enter so we can get some tabulated times as a 'starting point'


**Charity**

It would be great to raise money and awareness for a charity, and the opportunity to improve your times too!

    • Another recommendation for Maurice Hinds! He installed a new handbasin in my small bathroom, and did a lovely job.  I would absolutely recommend Maurice for plumbing work.  He is very helpful, friendly and did a tidy and efficient job, and his work is reasonably priced. 
    • Sure. He is ideological driven on many things. He was the person that defended the blanket CPZ policy because he believed that 'if you asked most people in southwark if all parking should be paid for, most would say yes'. A completely unfounded belief not backed by any evidence. In the real world, that policy caused significant local electoral damage for some councillors. I personally see his disillusion with the Labour Party as one of his idealism vs the reality of governance. He will probably be much happier with the Greens.
    • Arguably, as regards local needs for free(er) flowing traffic and some acknowledgement of expressed wishes he hasn't been. The 'active travel' and particularly the cycling lobby seems to have got far more of his attention than others. In that aspect, at least he would seem to be far more likely to be happy amongst the avowedly private-car hating Greens. A perfectly reasonable stance, of course, but one which certainly doesn't qualify as 'arguing for local needs'. He hasn't, equally, been very obviously supportive of those, his direct constituents I believe, who have been less than enthusiastic about Gala.
