A Southwark Cyclist volunteer will be on the road this morning helping the police nick drivers still hung over from New Year's Eve. The public are very supportive, drivers less so, but they soon calm down when they see the uniform. To join in, mail PCSO Kevin Phillips on kevin.j.phillips@met.police.uk
First ride in 2020! Usual easy-paced ride on, as far as possible, quiet streets and paths. Do you really know Dulwich? Come and work off some calories while exploring this part of Southwark. Easy ride, suitable for all types of cyclist. Starting from Dulwich Park we will head up to Dawsons Heights. Great views from […]
Run by Bruno (see pic) on behalf of Southwark Cyclists in Camberwell Leisure Centre which has south-east London’s most memorable address, Artichoke Place SE5 8TS. The leisure centre is friendly, cheerful, accessible and welcoming. Bruno and the boys are the same. Everyone is welcome and no one pays. This is a drop-in not a course. […]
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 […]
New Year but the speed limit hasn't changed. A lot of speeding goes on along this road. Our local volunteers are doing their bit to persuade drivers into more law-abiding ways. The general idea is here: https://southwarkcyclists.org.uk/66-in-a-20mph-zone/ and the man to contact if you want to join in is PCSO Kevin Phillips on kevin.j.phillips@met.police.uk

Usual easy-paced ride using lots of quiet streets and paths, but with some short stretches of busy road. Plan is to do a circular ride from Burgess Park to the Royal Parks. Out via Waterloo Bridge, Covent Garden and Bloomsbury to Regents Park. Probably coffee stop there, then via Marylebone to Hyde Park. Circuit of […]
This is a drop-in not a course so what gets taught is pretty random. You bring the problems and the guys teach you how to fix them. This is the place to bring the bike covered in spiders which you found in your Mam’s shed. They also do less long term stuff like “How do […]
The team are concentrating on this bit of fast road which is used as a cut through by every van driver in south London. It's also used by young people from Dulwich College and Kingswood School. And is made still more fun by a blind left turn. To show your support email PCSO Kevin Phillips […]
