Deal’s Gateway: We respond to the consultation

  • by

This was pretty simple…this is the draft of what I will send as a group response…please folks, send your own individual one too.  The more people respond, the better.     “We are extremely pleased to see the reinstatement of the green light phase dedicated solely to traffic emerging from Deal’s Gateway.  This is something we have been campaigning for ever since it was removed some years ago now.  We… Read More »Deal’s Gateway: We respond to the consultation

Lewisham Cyclists Mend and Ride Project

  • by

Lewisham Cyclists have recently set up a cycle maintenance project.  It is a workshop space with a good selection of tools, and advice and help available from our volunteers plus a qualified bike mechanic.

You… Read More »Lewisham Cyclists Mend and Ride Project

Hackney, with Victoria and Olympic Park Ride

  • by

There were already people waiting in Le Delice cafe, our friendly meetpoint in Ladywell, when I arrived for my breakfast at 10am. By the time we rode off on the Waterlink Way towards Lewisham half an hour later there were 16 of us. Three more at Greenwich, including one who had just missed the Southwark Healthy ride and decided to join us instead. We managed to cram about 16 bikes… Read More »Hackney, with Victoria and Olympic Park Ride

Severndroog Castle Ride Report

  • by

I arrived at Le Delice for my breakfast at 9.30 am on a bitterly cold Sunday morning, and already 3 other riders had arrived. While I consumed my porridge and coffee, riders continued to gather inside and outside the cafe and by the time we left, there were 17 of us! Impressive in the deep mid winter. With the two that joined us en route, that made 19 riders. We… Read More »Severndroog Castle Ride Report

Deals Gateway: The Latest Instalment

  • by

Some of you might remember this, over 2 years ago now, We made a couple of videos at this junction to prove to TfL just how dangerous their decision to make Deal’s Gateway share a green light with oncoming traffic from Greenwich High Rd was.

18th January Ride Cancelled

  • by

I am really sorry but I have reluctantly made the decision to cancel our ride to Heybridge. Lewisham Cyclists rarely cancel a ride but our riders’ safety is paramount. So I was in the area this morning and rode most of the route. Parts were absolutely fine, but there were several significant stretches of ice which made riding very stressful and necessitated several occasions where I had to dismount and… Read More »18th January Ride Cancelled

The Annual Pudding Buster 2015

  • by

We usually run this ride in the last week of the old year, but this year it slipped a bit and became our first countryside ride of the New Year.  Although, for some if us it was already our third ride of 2015 as we had done the New Year’s Eve ride which straddles the old and new, and, then, as we were still wide awake on New Year’s Day… Read More »The Annual Pudding Buster 2015
