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
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
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

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.
