Essex Circular from Shenfield
I’d already wimped out of a wet solo ride earlier in the week. So couldn’t really back out this time, as I was leading a group ride now, and despite receiving a fair number of early morning DNS texts, there were still a few who wanted to get out and explore Essex. So, wrapped up in my waterproofs, I pumped up my tyres, checked for grit bits, and rolled out… Read More »Essex Circular from Shenfield
Over The Hills and Not So Far Away
New resolution re Ride Reports. They’ll be short and sweet and if possible, done on the day. Here goes: What a beautiful day. Freezing mist hanging over Ladywell Fields as I headed out about 7.30am. Pedalled fast as I could to Norwood Junction for the train and hopefully a hot coffee. Norwood Junction doesn’t seem to function before 8am on a Sunday however. But when others arrived a bit later,… Read More »Over The Hills and Not So Far Away
Tuesday Totter
Tonights Tuesday Totter didn’t go quite to plan. Started by heading out to Greenwich via the Coldbath Egerton Drive route which entails crossing the railway over the Elverson Rd bridge, which I like to include now and again. Gives everyone a chance to practice their bike handling skills. Through the tunnel and out the other side, along the river, me trying to push it a little bit as I suspected… Read More »Tuesday Totter

Change to Wednesday evening Mend and Ride
The second Wednesday of the month workshop that we have been running for over a year will have to change to the second Thursday from this month (September). Although for this month only, changing from the second Wednesday to the nearest Thursday will mean we are not running a workshop on the 14th September, but on Thursday 15th September. Time and place still unchanged: Young Lewisham Project, 124, Kilmorie Rd,… Read More »Change to Wednesday evening Mend and Ride
Changes to August Mend and Ride
Its the holiday month so lots of folk are away. At the same time we’re very busy with school holiday stuff. So we’ve been a bit stretched and have to cancel our August third Friday Mend and Ride. We are also attending Chinbrook Meadows Dog Show, with a Dr Bike, cycle jumble and information stall on the 21st August 11am to 4pm. Therefore our usual last Sunday of the month… Read More »Changes to August Mend and Ride
Dunwich Dynamo 2016: Back once more
The forecast looked about as good as it could possibly be for a ride from London by night to the Suffolk coast. Warm, but not too warm, dry and a touch of a tail wind. So, my final decision, always made on the day, was to ride. However, had I not promised to lead a ride from Ladywell up to the start point I think I’d probably have crashed out… Read More »Dunwich Dynamo 2016: Back once more
