Results of TfL’s consultation on Cycle Superhighway 5

  • by

Out today is TfL’s response to the consultation on CS5, to which Lewisham Cyclists submitted a response back when the consultation was put out. Read it here I haven’t had time to do more than skim it yet. However, I did notice that they have commented on Lewisham Cyclists group submission, but neglected to record our disappointment at the fact they decided to leave most of Lewisham out! They do… Read More »Results of TfL’s consultation on Cycle Superhighway 5

A lovely ride in Kent

  • by

Ten of us met at London Bridge on a dull but dry morning. After a 40 minute journey, we arrived in Paddock Wood and headed out almost immediately on the first of the tiny, practically traffic free country lanes that criss cross this quiet part of Kent. This ride covers the wide flat flood plain of the Beult River and is mainly farmland, orchards and old oast houses, a reminder… Read More »A lovely ride in Kent

Another Quirky Afterworker May 2013

Four of us left the hustle of London Bridge on a dull, grey evening that threatened rain, but never carried out that threat. Pleasantly warm, too. Ideal evening for an extended commute. We hopped over Tower Bridge easily, down to St Katharine’s Dock where a fifth rider was waiting on the other side of the bridge. The bridge was up, to allow a fine old Thames barge through, quite a… Read More »Another Quirky Afterworker May 2013

Over the Hills and Not So Far Away Ride

  Great ride last Sunday with a lovely bunch of people.  If you were not out on your bike at some point over this past Bank Holiday weekend, you don’t know what you missed.  Sun, views, bluebells, wind in your hair, wonderful descents.  Oh, how I love my bicycle! Here’s a few of us  with the view from Tilburstow Hill behind.  Check out the Ride Reports page for more.

  • by

I had decided on a meet point in Ladywell Fields and then to lead folks to Crystal Palace to pick up a train to Coulsdon where we would begin this ride.  It is possible to ride out from Lewisham,  through Croydon, down the A23 to farthing Down, and make this ride a true out and back London to country lanes ride.  However, the train journey is short and cheap (1.65… Read More »Over the Hills and Not So far Away (Sunday 26th May 2013)
