Reduce, re-use, re-cycle. How about Repair? This is a skill-sharing event and we will be sending our pro-mechanic to share his skills and teach other people to fettle their bikes.

A Southwark Cyclist volunteer will be standing beside the road with a speed gun and a PCSO in full uniform beside him. Both of them have to wear hi-vis (because rules). Still drivers don't spot them. Just bear that in mind when you are wondering if a driver has seen you or not. To join […]

Round the west part of the Streatham Common then up to the Rookery Cafe where if time a coffee break. Return up through the common to Leigham Court Rd then quiet streets to Norwood Park. Detour slightly to criss-cross […]
