Personal Bike Taxi from Westwood Hill to Champion Hill. All those hills. Your Bike Taxi will take you anywhere (even up and down hills). The rider requested "rusty and slow" cycling so we've provided our rustiest and slowest escort. To order a Bike Taxi for yourself mail southwark@lcc.org.uk and explain your requirements.
This is part of our series of personalised rides which do what it says on the tin and escort riders to where they want to go -- within reason folks, within reason. To arrange one for yourself or your BF contact southwark@lcc.org.uk. This one goes from East Dulwich station to the Tower of London. There […]

At our not-so-new venue at 41 Grosvenor Park SE5 0NH (see picture below). 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 […]
