SUMMARY:Greenwich SuperSewer Healthy Ride
DESCRIPTION:Greenwich SuperSewer Ride\nNOTE. Please register for rides on Eventbrite so we can limit numbers\, link:  https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/greenwich-supersewer-cycle-ride-from-canada-water-tickets-2000052810797?aff=oddtdtcreator \nAs well as the main sewer along the Thames a second sewer was needed to carry overflow from the Deptford Storm Relief Sewer. A direct connection to Abbey Mills looks the obvious solution but the geology was unsuitable so instead a tunnel was bored all the way to Rotherhithe. This joined the main pipe at Chambers Wharf adjacent to Cherry Gardens. The ride will follow this project from the start in Greenwich to Chambers Wharf. \nMeet 10am in Deal Porter Square (next to Canada Water Library\, across the road from Canada Water station).  Aim to be back there at 12.00 to 12.30 after a 9 mile ride. Will start by riding to The Halfpenny Bridge (Norman Rd) via Greenland Dock and the Deptford waterfront. Admire the Victorian Greenwich Pumping Statiion through the fence then ride back to Deptford Church St. This was where the tunnelling started and the area used has been made into a small park with some new art work\, Next a long ride\, mostly Cycleway 10 then Southwark Park\, to the Thames at Cherry Gardens. During construction this was a key location where 3 tnnels joined. A large piece of new land was made stretching 50 metes or more out into the river. This has all gone now. Just one lonely barge left with some gear on it. If time we will continue to one more location involved in the Thames Pipeline project. This is the Shad Thames Pumping Station that was upgraded to eliminate outflows. \nEasy-paced ride largely on off road paths or segregated cycle lanes. Bruce leading. Route nap https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=18m0cMYTpKuPVfILXIMbLqs-xtvX316A&usp=sharing \nRiders of all ages are welcome on Healthy Rides but under 18s must be accompanied by a responsible adult.

SUMMARY:The Full Wandle 2026
DESCRIPTION:This ride is a nice challenge. Rde the entire Wandle Trail on a Saturday morning starting from London Bridge (Southwark Needle\, south east side of London Bridge). In fact we are going to cheat a bit by ending the ride at East Croydon Station. So bring your Travel Pass or equivalent to get home by train.  This ride is Amanda’s idea and she will be leading. Total ride distance is 19 miles and we are planning to finish by 2pm following a 9am start. This should allow time for looking around at some of the interesting parts of the Trail and having a coffee break. Parts of the trail are not surfaced and can be quite uneven\, so difficult on narrow wheels. \nRoute outline. From London Bridge take Cycleway 10 to Waterloo.  Over Westminster Bridge and along the cycle lane on the embankment to and over Chelsea Bridge and into Battersea Park. Thames Path to the start of the trail where the River Wandle meets the Thames.  Nice stretches include Abbey Water Mill\, Morden Hall Park and Beddington Park. \nRiders 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.

NOTE EARLY START. Amanda leading and aiming to finish before 1.30pm. We subtitled this ride the first time we did it in 2018 “The New\, The Old and The Derelict”. There is now less of the derelict and more of the new and the route changes to reflect this. Set off to Canary Wharf\, then a loop for Trinity where will have a stop with time for a look round. Then on to Barrier Park North and the Royal Docks and back to London Bridge. About 15 miles.  For those of you who have not visited Trinity Buoy Wharf\, try to get on this ride. Completely unique site with 2 decent cafes and some interesting art.

This ride will go out and back probably getting as far as the recently completed stretch past Charlton. May have time to look at the work going on to complete the route to Woolwich.  Interesting to see the different styles of cycle lane along the way and to consider if this type of cycleway is likely to encourage more cycling\, especially by women and children. This is a flat 10 mile ride with only a short stretch in Greenwich on quiet non-segregated roads.

SUMMARY:. Cunning Cover-ups: London’s Best-hidden Ventilation Shafts - Healthy Ride
DESCRIPTION:Cunning Cover-ups: London’s Best-hidden Ventilation Shafts\nIMPORTANT. Please register for rides on Eventbrite so we can limit numbers\, link: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/cunning-cover-ups-londons-hidden-ventilation-shafts-tickets-2003634123600?aff=oddtdtcreator \nLondon’s network of tunnels (for tubes\, trains and sewerage) needs a huge number of ventilation shafts\, but these are often considered to be a blot on the landscape. Over the years\, an astonishing range of cover-ups have been attempted\, and on this fun ride we’ll see some of the finest examples. We start from London Bridge (the Needle) at 10am\, returning by 1pm. Our wandering route takes us in a leisurely loop as far as Hyde Park. Among the highlights: \n… When the Metropolitan Railway\, the world’s first underground\, opened in 1863\, its cut-and-cover tunnels had periodic gaps to provide ventilation. One such gap lies behind numbers 23 and 24 Leinster Gardens\, necessitating the demolition of these two houses in the middle of a fashionable terrace. To avoid an unsightly gap\, the front wall of both houses was preserved\, leaving an empty void behind…which you can view by going round the back into Porchester Gardens. \n… The most surprising of all hidden ventilation shafts is\, perhaps\, the Wellington Arch at Hyde Park Corner. Its Northern pier once housed a police station\, and its Southern pier a park-keeper’s residence\, but with the building of the present Hyde Park Corner roundabout in 1960-62\, both sides were gutted and one side became a giant ventilation shaft for the underpass below. \n… and you are promised many more cunning cover-ups. \nRiders 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.
