Our guys will be in Camberwell Leisure Centre in Artichoke Place (SE5 6TS) from 6.30-8.30pm fixing bikes and teaching their owners how to do stuff themselves. This is a drop-in not a course and so what gets taught depends on what problems come in. You can bring a problem or just come and watch and learn. Due to the less-than-clement weather, they will be indoors in the reception area. There's also a cafe and )of course) a pool and gym.


All this is funded by Southwark Cyclists https://southwarkcyclists.org.uk/. We are the borough branch of the London Cycling Campaign https://lcc.org.uk. We are a charity dedicated to the promotion of cycling and making sure that people are cycling on tip-top condition bikes is part of our remit. Everything we do is free and everyone is welcome. You can contact us on [email protected], tweet us @southwarkcycle or text me on 07842 640 207. Enjoy.

    • Dunstans Road  comes under Dulwich Hill SNT- you can get their details on the Met Police website . I know that the Police are often patrolling Dawson Hights. Please contact them,
    • No one is arguing that people should cycle without lights or reflectors. Obviously they should. It is also a legal requirement. But the colour of someone’s clothing? Is it ok to wear navy? What about green? What shade? At what point should we have ‘no reason for sympathy’ if they’re in a collision? I don’t want people to feel like they need special clothes just to walk or cycle. If you have lights and reflectors and you’re on well lit city streets, there is no reason why drivers shouldn’t be able to see you, assuming of course, that they're driving with due care and attention. But yes, if there are lots of people without lights, that should be addressed. I suspect in part, it's the change over in seasons and the fact that people are getting caught out by how early it's getting dark now (obviously no excuse).
    • Found it but cannot contact owner as no email or message on it. e*****@icloud.com   please let me know if you’ve recently lost an Apple Watch SE
    • What a passionate thread this is. I have worked in cycling for years, am a cyclist, a driver, use public transport etc. Driving last night with my two young kids, who also cycle, we made the same observations. It was the kids who first asked me why are most cyclists wearing full black and no lights. We then played a game who can spot all the cyclists, and count those with lights and those without. This teaches them to look out for them but also not to put themselves in a position where we have to strain to find them.
