Our monthly meeting has been moved to the 21st due to too many meetings on the same day. The AGM will be on our normal second Wednesday in the month -- October 12th. All welcome to either or both. The meeting starts at 6.30pm and ends promptly at 8.30pm if not before. We don't waffle […]
Usual easy-paced, 2 hour, ride. Current idea is to include the Lambeth Car Free Day on Cornwall Rd near the South Bank. Out using Quietway 1; back partly using NS Cycle Superhighway. Route at http://goo.gl/Hp8JQ4
Peddlemywheels are bringing their bike market to the Lambeth Car Free Day in Cornwall Road http://www.peddlemywheels.com/home Lambeth Car Free Day, SE1 Celebrating the better use of public space than merely for cars, the council will be filling Cornwall Road with "fun and music". Cornwall Road will be closed to cars for the day on Saturday […]
A Bike Train is an escorted ride. This one takes cheerful people like this to work. I am the bald one second from the right. We take riders from Peckham, Denmark Hill and Nunhead to work, arriving at the north end of Blackfriars Bridge at 8.45am. Return rides arranged personally. We leave Nunhead at 8am, […]
The challenge was to design a non-hilly ride starting from Dulwich. Ended up following the “lost” river Effra to the Thames. Starting at 131ft and ending at 16 ft. With all the small bumps there is a total of 245ft of ascent, mostly on the return leg, of course. But it is pretty low slope […]
This is a picture of the segregated cycle lanes on Blackfriars Road as they looked on the plans. They don't look like this now. They are full of cyclists. Safe, wide, protected cycle lanes like this one make up about 40% of the Bike Train route. About half of it is through parks. A Bike […]
Usual easy-paced ride on mostly quiet roads and paths. David cannot lead his customary Thames loop due to the closure of Tower Bridge. Instead will go east to Greenwich, then back using mostly Quietway 1. Will give people a chance to judge the Lewisham and Greenwich stretches of the Quietway.
You don't need to be a student to bring your bike to this Dr Bike but it's timed to be useful for those who get creative, learn or otherwise feed their minds during the day. Dr Bike is free bike maintenance event. The good doctor will sort out brakes, untangle weird gears, pump up your […]
Final Opportunity to experience this "brilliant service" before we go monthly for the winter. Next one after today will be November 16th. However, that's then and this is now. As always, we will be taking people who want to enjoy their commute to work up the Bike Train route to work -- 50% parks, 40% […]
Our AGM and monthly meeting are at the new Nunhead Green Community Centre at the usual time — upstairs in Holly. There’s a lift for those who can’t manage stairs. There’s parking for 6 bikes outside the centre and more parking around the Green. The approach from Nunhead Lane involves a not very nice, not […]
