Get this top class mechanic working on your bike. See the Arch in the background. Two mechanics -- one professional and one amateur -- will tighten your brakes, index your gears and adjust your bike to fit you. Their hangers-on will offer you literature about cycling in Southwark and TfL maps but sadly, no coffee. […]

We use off-road and segregated routes to central London via […]
I couldn't truthfully tell you that this is a good likeness of our bike doctor. In fact I could truthfully tell you that it isn't. However I could also truthfully tell you that he's very good at his job and works very hard. He's coming to Quietway 1 for the first time with supporting bike […]
Ever wanted to ride past all the sights of Central London? Now is your chance. Our next “+” ride will take you through “Entertainment” London (Covent Garden, Soho), “Learned” London (Univ of London Senate House, British Museum) and “Legal” London (Lincolns Inn, Inner Temple). Route has been crafted by Werner and will be led by […]
We are short-staffed today just like the real railways but unlike them we are not cancelled. There is a shortage of station staff at the Peckham Rye Halt so there will be no one waiting for passengers at the bike stands behind McDonalds (see above) but fear not, Andy is on his way and at […]

Their bike health care assistants have maps, info, and lots of local cycling-related gossip. All this for your bike. It’s […]

The Bike Train leaves Denmark Hill Station from Windsor Walk, just outside the cafe (good coffee) and beside this big raised flower bed which is attempting to lower the stress of using Denmark Hill Station. Come with us and learn off-road and segregated routes to central London via Blackfriars. We bike-buddy riders to their final […]

From Cator Park follow NR21 north to Bells Green. Back […]
The Bike Train is named after the Brighton Bike Train which took students along the A23 from their halls of residence far away to their places of learning in the town. It’s a commuter ride leaving out the crush, the waiting, the heat and the congestion. We take about 35 minutes to get from Peckham […]
