Southwark Cyclist volunteers are working with the police to reduce illegal speeding on our roads. Community Speedwatch is a co-operation between the community (represented by us) and the Met. The community volunteer holds the speedgun and shouts out the numbers and PCSO Kevin Phillips writes down the registration numbers and makes. Then he looks up […]
Free and everyone welcome. It’s not a course, it's a drop-in.. What gets taught depends on what problems you bring in. The guys that do it are well known greats from our summer-time Dr Bikes at Peckham Arch and on Quietway 1. These evening bike-fixing sessions are a joint venture between Southwark Cyclists and Lettsom […]

At our not-so-new venue at 41 Grosvenor Park SE5 0NH (see picture above). It’s much more respectable than it looks. Coming from Burgess Park, cross Camberwell New Road and proceed in an westerly direction along Urlwin Street, under the railway bridges, left at the end and straight on into the cul-de-sac in front of you. Very […]
Our guys are back with the sunshine, keen and raring to fix your bike. They will be under or around Peckham Arch (see pic) fixing bikes for all-comers. This service is free and enthusiastic.
