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 […]

Detour slightly to criss-cross […]

Speeding seems to be as popular as ever and the diminished visibility isn't putting anyone off. You can join in: mail Kevin on Kevin.j.phillips@met.police.uk or read […]
