 Two rides for Sat 25th November. Both start at 10am at the Café in Burgess Park.  Simon’s ride is a circular route to Greenwich and Rotherhithe taking 2.5 hours. Jane’s is a 3 hour ride, and only she knows where you are going. I am sure this element of mystery will appeal to some of you! 

Ride 1.  Burgess Park, Cutty Sark, Stave Hill Loop < https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/se-london-sights-cycle-ride-tickets-761880062777 >  

Start/finish Fuorvito Café (ex Park Life Café), Burgess Park, Chumleigh Gardens, SE5 0RJ. Meet 10am. Simon S. leading. An easy-paced, pretty flat ride taking in some iconic sights of SE London: the Cutty Sark, the Thames Path, Greenland Dock and Stave Hill - not to mention Millwall FC's stadium (twice!). Stave Hill is a man-made small conical mound close to Russia Woodland in Rotherhithe. You walk up it to get the view – not a hill you cycle up. Nearly all this route is on quiet cycleways. Coffee stop at the Cutty Sark. Fantastic views from Stave Hill. 12 miles. Route map: https://www.google.com/maps/d/u/0/edit?mid=1HhD8WldGdPFxAVTsiInWeS3QU1wpJZu8&usp=sharing

Ride 2.  Mystery Ride from Burgess Park  < https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/cycle-ride-from-burgess-park-tickets-761884385707>  

As for ride 1, start/finish Fuorvito Café (ex Park Life Café), Burgess Park, Chumleigh Gardens, SE5 0RJ, meet up 10am. Ride leader Jane has given me just the following information for you: “3 hour ride with coffee stop - not sure where to but I'll know on the day.”  Good luck. 

If you cannot make a ride, please cancel so that someone else can take the place. How to cancel link: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/help/en-gb/articles/575010/how-to-cancel-your-free-registration/

    • I’m in exactly the same position.  They badgered me for ages to have a water meter fitted.  I’d prevaricated simply because it’s so tedious dealing with these people but eventually gave in when the communications became increasingly frequent and aggressive and it was done in March 2023. I just assumed I’d then be charged on actual consumption but I received an email this morning with details of the latest price increase and it said, “Since your property doesn’t have a water meter, your bill is calculated in advance based on fixed rates rather than water usage”.  I’m sure they’ve realised I’d be paying much less if they billed me on actual consumption but have not gone out of their way to inform me.  Trawling through their website, for me anyway, is an unutterably tedious chore, but I think I’ll now have to work up the energy over the weekend to pick up the phone on Monday morning and have a word with them.  
    • Great Service again from Andy.  Contacted him with a couple of issues with toilet cistern and shower.  He came over and sorted it all out quickly. Good advice given, reasonable charge for the jobs.  Highly recommend Andy!   
    • Just seen this.  Your post was a bit unnecessary.  I was simply responding to the previous post that children should be cycling on the pavement. But as you say I know shed loads about transport.  Not to the depths that some go down to the minutia.  Some call me the space cowboy.  Some call me the gangster of love.  I think of myself as the people's poet.  You have to laugh at yourself. Echoing what DKH said, we weren't there, you don't know the parent was making a snide remark, My favourite Dulwich parent story was a few years ago were friends when we were in the Herne garden a few years ago, who let their children run riot.  Bless.  One decided to turn the hose on spraying some poor drinkers.  Now most of us would be mortified, but the friends welcomed their child's creativity.
