longer social cycle ride Saturday March 18th


Recommended Posts

A longer ride to Design Museum in its new location in Kensington. Starts at 9.30am instead of the usual 10am and ends at 1pm rather than 12noon.


Starting place is the Park Life Cafe in Burgess Park, which is part of Chumleigh Gardens, off Albany Rd (SE5 0RJ). Return to the same place. This has changed from the original plans so if you knew what the plan was before, it's not now.


Usual easy-paced ride using a route with plenty of paths and quiet streets - although there are a few busy stretches. Out via Kennington Park, Westminster Bridge and Hyde Park, including the new cycle lane along South Carriage Drive from Hyde Park Corner to Albert Memorial - marvellous!


Back via Brompton Cemetery, Albert Bridge and Battersea Park. The leader will be Jane and the route is here: http://gb.mapometer.com/cycling/route_4497331.html. That's 16.46 miles or 694 kilocalories.


Bruce's phone no is still 07729 279 945 and the ride is run by Southwark Cyclists https://southwarkcyclists.org.uk

    • I agree on this point. I live in a one bedroom ground floor flat with a 2/3 bed flat above, should they build into the loft the negative impact below would be huge. Plus there is already only space (within the garden which is covered by the ground floor lease) for one wheelie bin per flat so unless Southwark decide to allow bins out on the pavements I am not sure where the additional waste produced by more residents will go! There are many things to consider when it comes to deciding on whether to grant planning permission that Southwark have never taken into account, hence the situation I guess they are in now.  From my point of view when part of the property is shared or owned by the freeholder in the case of flats I think the impact of extending, impact on any communal areas, space for bins etc should be taken into account. Every property is different so each case should be looked at differently. Look at some of the house being converted into 3 flats, they look very smart but now the tiny front gardens are full of bins, rubbish and bike sheds that must impact on the ground floor. Personally the appeal of living in a converted Victorian terrace dwindles when they become so small and crammed into a tiny house, might as well live in a purpose built block!
    • Hi all, We've just moved and I'm looking for a chest of drawers for the bedroom if anyone is getting rid of theirs?  Thanks,  Anya 
    • Hello, After finding Lukas at L and L Building and Maintenance on this website I wanted to pay it forward and confirm him and his team definitely lived up to the positive reviews. Lukas and his team were extremely diligent with great attention to detail, and nothing that came up during the process was too much trouble for them. The team were very polite and great to have in the house as we were there alongside work being done. Any changes that came up were dealt with easily without any drama. We had a new bathroom and refurbished front of house including new steps etc, and a new loft hatch / boarding. Everything looks great and we are very happy - will 100% go to Lukas in the future for any other work will need and have been recommending to all of our friends.

    • I mean as someone who loves ina  purpose built flat I have no dog in this fight, but those dormer extensions are, by and large,  really ugly.  The back of streets in East Dulwich look like a well built shanty town
