Our guys will be in the cheerful and friendly Camberwell Leisure Centre in wonderfully named Artichoke Place SE5 8TS. It’s a delightful building with cafe, good staff and, now, great bike fixing. 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 […]
Speedwatch volunteer and Southwark Cyclist Bob Eva will be holding the speedgun and PCSO Kevin Phillips will be writing down the numbers at or near the Croxted Road junction with the South Circular.

Dr Bike on Quietway 1 at the junction of Lynton Road and Dunton Road and across the road from Cafe Crol (see pic) to be exact. The guys are kept in order by a professional mechanic who brings the tools and helps with the tricky stuff. They are pretty good independently though, indexing gears, tightening […]

Ride start/finish Peckham Square (Peckham Library, Peckham Pulse Leisure Centre, SE15 5JR) or meet us at St Mary's Gate to Greenwich Park, at end of King William Walk, at around 10.35am. Usual easy-paced ride on mostly quiet streets and paths. Simon will […]

Werner, who leads some of our Healthy Rides and Bank Holiday specials, doesn't appreciate frights. He likes to get even. The result is a lot of speed measurement on Salter […]
Southwark Cyclist Bob Eva will be holding the speedgun and PCSO Kevin Phillips will be writing down the registration numbers on Dog Kennel Hill near the junction with Quorn Road.
