Meet at 10.00h in Peckham Square (next to Peckham Library and Peckham Pulse Leisure Centre). The ride will trace the route of the Grand Surrey Canal from Peckham to the canal entrance on the Thames at Salt Quay. On familiar paths we will seek out features of the canal along the way and the docks at Surrey Quays, and dig into their history. Coffee will be in Folkestone Garden and the ride will end at Southwark Park at approximately 2pm. There will be an additional short led ride back to Peckham Square for any riders wishing to get back to the start.
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/.
Note. Ride reports, often with photos and route maps, are posted to the Southwark Cyclists web site, yearly index at https://southwarkcyclists.org.uk/healthy-rides/. Future/provisional ride ideas can be viewed on our planning spreadsheet.
