social cycle ride

Recommended Posts

Hi

Myself and a friend are thinking of arranging a bike ride one day over the Easter weekend (Fri-Sun). We are looking for a route in the countryside, starting the ride short train journey away. The plan would be to have a pub lunch and maybe a tea stop on route. Thinking of about 30 miles at a fairly leisurely pace. If it goes well we might make it a regular thing. Let me know if you are interested. Any suggestions for a route welcome (I have a terrible sense of direction) (my wingman is looking for a route).

Helena,


A splended idea! I have taken rides from Goose Green for many years everyother Sunday.


I had 3 variations:


1. A ride into the country such as Down House, tea & cake then a ride back.

2. Ride to a further destination such as Brighton, a pint + food and take a train back, and finally...

3. Enjoy the London Parks - Hyde Park, Regents Park or even Southwark Park. Tea & cake, with lots of blue plaques to view enroute such as the:


a) Mayflower launch (1620) by Rotherhide tunnel

b) Just around the corner, a blue plaque for Micheal Caine

c) Brunell Museum


On yer bike! And have a great time :-)

    • Elliot built alcove cupboards and shelves in our lounge room earlier this week. SO happy with them, the quality of joinery is superb and elliot was very communicative with me about checking things and confirming details. Clean and tidy aswell (even brought his own kettle!).    Would definitely recommend for any carpentry or joinery. 
    • Hi .. I’ve still got the  bike lock 😀
    • I think the only way to sort this is to ban loud fireworks for private sale (and preferably ban fireworks altogether except for public displays). I don't know whether that has implications I'm not aware of eg I have no idea how many people are involved in firework manufacture.
    • Very happy to recommend Tommy Rooney's excellent work again. He's been servicing my boiler for years now, but this time he swiftly fixed a leaky radiator valve. I put out a call on Friday and it was repaired - and improved - by Monday evening. I asked him if he had an opinion about my other radiators, and he reassured me as he pointed out the leaky bathroom rad was a non-standard length, which was why it caused problems. There followed a brief but detailed history of improvements in regulations for valves and fittings over the years, so that I could understand precisely what the issue was. How many plumbers will do that for you? "I've just got a memory for weird things," says Tommy modestly.
