[Sally Eva]

One ride with registration on Eventbrite as usual. When you register on Eventbrite, (link details below), please give a phone number as it may be needed for Track and Trace. If you cannot make it, please cancel so that someone else can take the place. Even at the last minute it is worth cancelling.

Butterfly Ride

10.00 am to 12.30 pm. Start/finish Peckham Square, next to Peckham Library and Peckham Pulse Leisure Centre, SE15 5RY. 9 mile loop through parks and open spaces where hopefully we will see some butterflies. Ride coincides with the Big Butterfly Count. We will not be counting, but will visit good places to count if you are inspired to return. Main sites to be visited: Peckham Rye Park (wildflower meadows), Ruskin Park (Nature Reserve), Myatts Fields (wild area), Burgess Park (wild flower bank). Easy ride with plenty of time allowed for hunting for butterflies. Fingers crossed this good weather continues. Route at http://goo.gl/v14knG .
