The usual wonderful set of guys fixing bikes and dispensing wise advice — mostly about the need to clean your chain. The effect of nagging is such that after five years of hearing them say this I have started doing it every now and again. They are cheerful, helpful, knowledgeable and have lots of tools. […]
Usual easy-paced ride suitable for any level of cyclist. Harry is leading. Ride to find the oldest house in the City. Flat 10.8 mile route. Start/finish in Deal Porter Square, next to Canada Water Library, opposite CW Station (SE16 7AR). Ride along the river and across Tower Bridge. Bit of E-W superhighway, then up to […]
Our volunteers will be packing their speedguns in Salter Road with the support of PCSO Kevin Phillips (see pic). The speed to beat is 66mph in a 20mph. Miscreants get fierce letters from the Met. If that attracts you mail Kevin on Kevin.J.Phillips@met.police.uk and volunteer.

If it’s been a few weeks since you came, you need to know that the venue has changed. All those who came to the last one already know. It’s now in the cheerful and friendly Camberwell Leisure Centre in wonderfully named Artichoke Place SE5 8TS. The photo makes it look a bit grim but it’s […]

Our guys are will be at the Dunton Road/Lynton Road crossroads. That's the one with advance release lights on a three-way junction. Our guys will be […]
The July butterfly ride was a washout, so we are going to try again. It is "big butterfly count" time. Are there butterflies in the Southwark area? Yes there are! Join a ride where we go in search (and hope for nice weather). Usual easy-paced ride on mostly quiet streets and paths. First stop at […]

A Southwark Cyclists' volunteer and PCSO Kevin Phillips will be at the junction of Half Moon Lane and Village Way with their speed guns. The speed limit is 20 and violators will receive fierce letters from the Met promising close attention to their number plate in case of further misdeeds. Worth a bit of effort […]

Those caught in their sights get fierce letters with fierce threats of personal attention from the Met. The record for the most reckless driver of the year was briefly held by a motor bike caught pulling a […]
