On the 16th we have 2 rides planned. Bruce has a new short ride, Amanda leads one of her regular rides to Kings Cross.

Ride 1. Cemeteries and Hills  < https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/cemeteries-and-hills-cycle-ride-tickets-857381891317 >

10 o’clock start from Peckham Rye Park Café. Bruce leading a new adventurous loop through Nunhead Cemetery, up Hilly Fields, then Brockley and Ladywell Cemetery and Camberwelll New Cemetery, up One Tree Hill, through Camberwell Old Cemetery and finally up Dawsons Heights. Only 8 miles, but several uphills where we may need to walk. Allowing 2½ hours, so plenty of time to walk steep bits and still have a short coffee break. Main adventurous bit is One Tree Hill. This is not a huge hill, but very steep. Paths are nice, but all have steps. If paths are slippery may need to park bikes and walk last sections. Worth it to see the “Oak of Honour” and the WWII gun emplacement. Everyone welcome. Come along and enjoy the challenge!  Provisional map at  https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=1tLnUmgp67E91V0Or5n19A5kvUswLINw&usp=sharing

 Ride 2. Peckham to Kings Cross  < https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/peckham-to-kings-cross-cycle-ride-tickets-857372092007 >

9.30am start from Peckham Square (next to Peckham Library and Peckham Pulse Leisure Centre, SE15 5RY). 3 hour ride. To Kings Cross. Granary Square for a coffee break (in market, under cover) and a bit of a look round.  Outward route Cycleways 10 & 6. Over Blackfriars Bridge. Farringdon then quiet streets and safe crossings to Kings Cross. Return leg will take a more easterly route with a bit of canal path.  Southwark Bridge back to Peckham.  Flat route with lots to see, come and join us. Amanda leading.

 

 Always give way to pedestrians and to other cyclists so all path users feel safe. Riders of all ages are welcome on Healthy Rides but under 18s must be accompanied by a responsible adult.  Same for “adults at risk”.  If you cannot make a ride, please cancel so that someone else can take the place.

      Leaves on East Dulwich streets

      By CPR Dave · Posted

      It's not entitlement FFS. We're paying the council more than £2k a year in tax. It's not too much to expect them to clean the streets and drains of leaves and dog shit for all that money, as well empty one bin once a fortnight.  The streets round here are a disgrace. The council are paid to make them not so. If they can't do it they should say so and stop charging money for the non-service.

      Post Office Lordship Lane is Broken

      By Moovart · Posted

      The Post Office no longer runs the Lordship Lane PO either.  That slipped through under the radar!  Below is an extract from a letter from the PO to me in response to my query about long queues.  Shame the PO didn't say who the new owner actually is.  Does anyone know?   Whilst this branch was a 'Crown' office, this has now been franchised. Services at this location are now operated by an independent Postmaster. They're responsible for all aspects of the day-to-day running of the branch, and is the employer of the members of staff who work in the branch.

      Leaves on East Dulwich streets

      Leaves falling throughout autumn and winter is just nature doing its thing. My bugbear is manmade rubbish strewn all over the floor after bin day. I go out and gather up leaves in my own area. Those with a garden put them in a bag and leave. They make lovely compost.

      Charity World Cup Football Song ⚽🎶 by East Dulwich Kids

      By Alex ED · Posted

      Shouting Out For England is an original England football song to be sung by children from East Dulwich primary schools, with all proceeds going to Football Beyond Borders - a UK charity that works with young people from areas of socio-economic disadvantage who are passionate about football but disengaged at school. We’re aiming to get to NUMBER 1 on the week of the start of the World Cup in June! To professionally record and release the song we’re looking to raise  £3,750. Any amount will help, but £50 + sponsors receive: a name or logo credit on the digital release sleeve (Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon, YouTube etc.) mention on the project website and social posts You can donate at https://www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/shoutingout - where you can also hear a short demo clip of the song. We hope you can take part, but if not, it would be great if you could forward to anyone you think might be interested!   Shouting Out For England https://shoutingoutforengland.com
