SUMMARY:Upminster to Southend Healthy Ride
DESCRIPTION:Upminster to Southend Healthy Ride\nNOTE. Please register for the ride on Eventbrite so we can limit numbers\, link: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/upminster-to-southend-cycle-ride-tickets-1526787856579?aff=oddtdtcreator \nThe ride starts at Upminster library at 9.30am. We head East into the Essex countryside. Our first stop at 11 miles is Langdon Discovery Centre (Essex Wildlife Trust).  Our second stop at 20 miles is at Hadley Park café.  At 25.5 miles is Southend seafront our destination and our lunch break.  Aim to be at Southend by 12.30. Give ourselves an hour for lunch and set off back at 1.30. Those that want to leave the ride at this point can catch the c2c train from Southend Central back to London. Trains run every 20 minutes.  The journey back traces much of the route outbound but we will have only one stop roughly half way at the Langdon Discovery Centre. We’ll then return to Upminster library after a short break aiming to arrive there about 4.30. \nUpminster station is step free. In Zone 6\, longish journey on District line (e.g. Monument\, 42min\, £3.70). Bit quicker on c2c from Fenchurch St\, 22min\, £3.80). Upminster Library is 400m south of the station\, mostly along busy Station Road.  GPX route map:.Upminster_to_Southend_3 \nPersonal memories of Southend from Ride Leader Owen \nI remember as a 9 year old boy\, a recent immigrant from Hong Kong with virtually no English\, being woken up in the middle of a cold winter’s night to go fishing. After wiping the sleep from my eyes I joined my father and our compassionate elderly neighbour\, a keen fisherman\, to drive down to Southend to fish off the end of the pier.  Still in pitch darkness we dropped lines with about half a dozen hooks on each line into the water. When the tide came in we pulled in our lines and there were two\, three\, four flat fish on each line. \nFish were plentiful in those days and the town was a major holiday destination. Southend today may not glisten the way it used to but on sunny summer weekends thousands of day trippers still pack the promenades. You hear Chubby Chequer being belted out from arcades along with the ping\, ping\, ping sound of pinball machines and the occasional crashing of coins as a lucky punter registers a winning line on the fruit machine. You hear choruses of screaming from those on fairground rides. Every kid seems to be holding a candy floss or an ice cream cone and every adult has a big grin on their face.  Best of all is the ubiquitous seductive aroma of fish and chips with lashings of malt vinegar and pickled onions wafting along the seafront.\nSouthend seafront is still an amazing place to visit. Southend still touches my heart.\nWhat are your memories of Southend? Better still join me on my bike ride from Upminster to Southend and back. \nGeneral Information.   \nRiders of all ages are welcome on Southwark 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.   Remember finish times are approximate and it is best not to schedule something immediately after the ride; give yourself an allowance for mechanical or other problems on the ride. \nThese rides are part of a regular programme of Saturday rides\, more information at https://southwarkcyclists.org.uk/healthy-rides/. \nNote. Reports of previous rides\, 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 plans can be viewed on our planning spreadsheet. \n  \n

Bruce will lead a last WW ride before the closure. Meet 10am at Deal Porter Square (next to Canada Water Library\, opposite CW Station) and take the Windrush Line ( ex-Overground) to Sydenham. Taking bikes on these trains is surprisingly easy especially at step free stations like Canada Water and Sydenham. We will then ride back to Canada Water arriving about 12.30. Can also join at Sydenham Station at 10.25am; please indicate on Eventbrite if you intend to do this.  NOTE this is Sydenham Station\, not Lower Sydenham or Sydenham Hill. \nRoute back at https://goo.gl/4DQ9Tb.  Down to Bells Green and join the Waterlink Way (Nat Route 21). Follow this excellent off-road path to Ladywell Fields\, then continue to Brookmill Park. Use the new segregated lane on Deptford Church St and get back to Canada Water on either Cycleway 10 or 4. Easy 1.5 – 2 hour ride back with lots of off road path. Remember to bring card or equivalent (fare £2:10). \nRiders of all ages are welcome on Healthy Rides but under 18s must be accompanied by a responsible adult. Same for “adults at risk”.

Jacqui is leading\, starting from The Southwark Needle\, London Bridge\, south side. Route will pick up Cycleway 14 and cross river at Southwark bridge. Through the City and follow C11\, then C1. Return via Clissold Park then C1 back to the starting point on London Bridge. Time for a comfort stop at the Coal House café in the Wetlands. To access the café we will have to walk our bikes along the boardwalk.  Queue for coffee etc may be long\, so perhaps bring snacks and drink. Mostly quiet streets but possibly a bit busy in the City on our return. Traffic free in the Wetlands where the path is narrow and shared with pedestrians and runners\, so please give way when necessary. The surface there is compacted gravel. Numbers will be restricted to 10 (including Ride Leader) as a big group would be difficult (and unpopular) in the Nature reserve. So please only register when you are sure you will be able to attend. \nGeneral Info. 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.
