A Bike Train is a bike ride led by experienced cyclists. We are free, cheerful and reliable.

We leave Nunhead at 8am, Denmark Hill and Peckham Rye stations at 8.10am. At Denmark Hill we leave from the cafe in Windsor Walk led by Liz Eden (07814 515 715). The two rides meet and arrive at Blackfriars at 8.45am. The starting point at Peckham Rye is the bike stands behind McDonalds. From Blackfriars riders are taken on individually (if they want) and destinations so far include Faringdon, Kings Cross, Westminster, Mayfair and Tower Hill.

Our route takes in two parks, a traffic-calmed backstreet, the cycling-on-the-pavement lanes on the New Kent Road, the Elephant and Castle by-pass and then the new TfL segregation. It's very quiet and enjoyable, mostly off-road (through parks) and then a backstreet. After that we are on segregation which is where there is a part of the road for bikes only, protected by about 2m of pavement.

The map is here:

Entirely free and all welcome. To join in Denmark Hill text Bruce Lynn on 07729 279 945 or for Nunhead and Peckham text me on 07842 640 207 or don't do any of that and just turn up.

- Gardener/Landscape Design Recommendation: Exterior Design Gardens

  Chiming in to recommend @Gardenman / Oli Hawkins who runs Exterior Design Gardens. Oli and his team completely revamped our small back garden last Spring (February 2024) by sourcing laying new tiling to replace a concrete base. Besides doing a GREAT job, it was very reasonably priced (completed on budget) and his team was really friendly, respectful and approachable. I also was super appreciative of how responsive Oli was, it's refreshing to work with such a diligent communicator. Exterior Design Gardens T: 07549418219 T: 07759862191 Email: [email protected]

  In a city where successive governments have allowed property prices to spiral out of control, this just seems like a really cynical move. Given that every other mid-terrace already has a full size dormer, I can't see what benefit there is to anyone to prevent further such development from happening. For many it will be the only way to increase space without moving out of the area. As families grow up and kids get bigger, more space is needed. What is the reason for doing this? It can't be aesthetics because then presumably they'd go to all the other properties and force them to reverse their developments. OK it seems like permitted development stands for houses. What on earth benefit is there to restrict the top floor in a house (i.e. a flat) from doing the same thing? Also what'll it do to property prices? Surely it could put a big value divide between neighbours houses? Really bizarre thinking
