This life-enhancing 140 acre park is part of the Bike Train route and every week someone says "I didn't know this was here". Come and find out for yourself. The Bike Train is running through the holidays. We start at 8am from Nunhead Station and pick up riders from Peckham Rye station (from the bike […]

The good doctor is back again with his enormous bag of tools and his failthful assistants (who use his and bring their own). They will index your gears, tighten your brakes and give you wise advice on your chain, tyres and everything else bike-related. Maps, fighting talk and gossip about cycling in Southwark and beyond also available. […]
Usual 3.5 hour easy ride. Start/Finish Cutty Sark, by the tunnel entrance. The last ride to Trinity Buoy wharf was so popular we have decided to repeat it, but using a different route. This time will go outward along the south bank and cross at Woolwich using the foot tunnel. Then back along the north […]

Another rider said it's "very stress-free".Our route follows the route of the old Surrey Canal of which this mega-park is just a part. This is a canal bridge over the former canal about half […]
This is a picture of my back because the Bike Train route is much better looking than I am. We run from central Southwark to Blackfriars and Westminster every Wednesday rush hour morning. Our route is 50% parks and 40% segregation. The remaining 10% is a backstreet. We do not cycle up any part of […]
The doctor is back. He will be under Peckham Arch, mending bikes, handing out bike wisdom and dispensing good ideas. He will fix brakes, gears and tyres but he doesn't carry spare parts so if you know or suspect you need them bring them with you. The Doctor sets up on the ramp from the […]

Comments on the Bike Train have been so complimentary that modesty (and credibility) stops me from publishing them. I'll immediately contradict myself. One rider said "I can't believe you do this for nothing". Well we do and we enjoy it, as you will too. We start at 8am from Nunhead Station and pick up riders […]
