Led bike ride from Dulwich to Bike Picnic in Greenwich


Recommended Posts

PICNIC 2023 

The annual picnic will be in Greenwich Park on Saturday 12th August.  As in previous years, this is being organised in collaboration with Harry Clark's Bexley Let's Go group. We have again invited riders from other groups including Lewisham Cyclists and Greenwich Cyclists. We would welcome any cyclists who are interested in social rides - you do not have to be a regular Healthy Rider.  And family members, children etc are not just allowed but encouraged. 

Arrangements. Get to the Bandstand in Greenwich Park for around 12 noon. Note the Bandstand is fairly central, on the right along the wide path running east from the Pavilion Cafe, Lat-Long 51°28'35.2 N 0°00'11.1 E.  Bring food and drink. There will be some organised (sort of) activities - the slow race is always a crowd pleaser. Harry has also arranged for the Met Police Bike Marking team to be there, so an opportunity to make your bike more secure. 

Getting there. Make your own way. Or join the led ride. Meet at 10.30 at the Dulwich Clock Cafe in Dulwich Park, or 10.50 in Peckham Square (Peckham Library, Peckham Pulse Leisure Centre) or 11.20 in Deal Porter Square (Canada Water Library). No registration. Just turn up. Route for led ride: https://www.google.com/maps/d/u/0/edit?mid=1JQCZhDyDe7MC9ouKvAv_4tRk56SYa5Th&usp=sharing 

These events are organised by Southwark Cyclists and are part of a regular programme of Saturday rides, more information at

    • They plan to close the Mount Pleasant Office, absolute and utter madnesss
    • We are sadly saddled with the three stooges till July 2029 because they have such a far reaching majority, that is the problem when you give a party that level of support.  The ship was being turned around by the last Administration and given all their faults, errors, misdemeanours its not surprising that that got and probably deservedly so out of Office.  But if what has just happened over the past 100+ days since the new Administration took power, we are in for a very bumpy ride and peoples lives will ALL be affected. They say they champion the poor, well all they've done so far by taking away the winter fuel allowance (not eligible for it) and increasing employers national insurance, as sure as eggs is eggs, prices will increase and that hits everyone in the pocket, including the poorest in society. You can only shake the money tree so often, after which time it's Empty. What that means is the cost of providing benefits increases, where does the money then come from.  To then take on the farmers who feed part of the economy is utter madness, because if they blockade food supplies then people will go hungry, not necessarily starve. You don't shoot the hand that feeds you.  Their is enough written about the three stooges, Starmer, Reeves and Rayner, I have no idea if they are supposed "communists", but what I have seen is that free speech is being eroded, that can never be good for a democracy, where people are scared to speak out.  How does all this change, the people will eventually have had enough and rise up against the Govt. It has to happen eventually. Even is Starmer went you are left with Reeves and Rayner. Personally O don't trust either, it will be more of "do as I say, not as I do".  
    • Thanks for the invite, although most people will be at work or at school. It's a Monday morning...
