social cycle ride starts 9.30am Sat July 21st


Recommended Posts

This one is called By Air and Under Sea. I'm not sure if the Thames really counts as the sea at Greenwich. but it's a very good title for a very good ride. The Air bit is definitely right -- the ride starts at 9.30am at the Cutty Sark next to the foot tunnel (SE10 9HT) and follows the Thames Path to the O2 and the Emirates Airline.


The Airline is very bike friendly and photogenic. It costs ?3.50 so bring your Oyster or contactless card. The arrival point is a bit arid but the group won't hang around. On disembarking they will head up towards the Olympic Park, crossing a couple of parks and taking the Greenway.


A coffee stop is planned at one of the cafes in the Olympic Park followed by a quick tour of park going past the Velodrome, Copper Box and up round the London Stadium, exiting by the View Tube.


Return route takes them along the River Lee down to Three Mills, over Twelvetrees Crescent Bridge and along the south Lee path to Cody Dock. The group then cuts down to Dock Road and picks up the Thames pathway back to the Greenwich foot tunnel. Flat ride, lots of traffic-free bits, everyone welcome. Ends at 1pm by the foot tunnel.


This series of Saturday rides (some longer than others) is free and open to everyone. They are organised and mostly led by Bruce Lynn on behalf of Southwark Cyclists who are the borough branch of the London Cycling Campaign. Contact Bruce on 07729 279 945 for more information.

    • In fact most times things are none of our business but when you see something in your vicinity, you are interested! let’s hope we don’t see any vulgar nosey parker’s on the forum again!
    • I'm trying to get my head around why people think it's exceptable to completely waste you time on here. I give people my personal details ie home address/ mob nunber and you just never hear back from them. You waste your evenings or afternoons waiting for people to collect your items for sell for them to completely ignore your texts and calls. Or another great one is someone will ask if they can collect now then turn there computer off for a few days then ask if it's still available days later!! I'm just so confused with people's mentality on here how people go about themselves on this forum and not one person gets back to me just to say.... Sorry not interested now but thank you. Arghhhhh!!!
