Dec 23rd. Christmas Lights.  < https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/christmas-lights-southwark-cyclists-ride-tickets-1110153311439 >  After last year, we swore never to repeat this ride. However, by popular demand… 4.00 pm start. London Bridge, south side, next to Southwark Gateway Needle, Bruce leading, Werner assisting. Hope to be back by 6.30 pm. Ride will be in 3 sections. A steady ride along south side of river then crossing Waterloo Bridge. Next the main event, a complex circuit of Covent Garden area and the West End including the obvious suspects – Oxford, Regents and Bond Streets – plus a few less well-known.  The central streets will be VERY CROWDED with pedestrians and motor traffic including large Tour Buses. Maintaining cohesion in the group may at times be difficult.  As well as bike lights, please also decorate your bike. A festive light on the helmet is a great way to remain visible in a crowd. Make sure your phone is charged up and you must give a phone number on registration. Father Christmas suits are allowed. Final part of the ride will be the short homeward run along the Embankment Cycleway.  Join us if you can. 2023 Route: https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=1mTn-a_ineSWxAHn-flMwGsIJsmQT-cc&usp=sharing and ride report at https://southwarkcyclists.org.uk/healthy-rides/healthy-ride-reports-2023/ride-report-23-dec-2023/

    • What worries me is all the talk of these foreign architectural styles.  Art Deco (French) and Art  Noveau (Belgium - can you even name ten famous poeple from Belgium),   Thank heavens for good old British Arts and Crafts, harking back to previous times.   What do you think those who are asset poor and cash poor may think?  Don't you feel there is a case for evening things out? Get real.  There are numerous anti-Labour threads and a few of you who clearly hate everything Labour, no doubt going back decades.  Not everyone of course who have posted on this weird thread has such strong views.   For balance there are a lesser number of threads on other political parties and a former prime minister, but they attract far less traffic, and one person seems to go out of their way to defend Farage
    • There is a possibility that poor air quality leads to adult onset asthma.  The Lancet did not confirm this and stated that more work was required.  10,000s of deaths are linked to poor air quality.  Surely it is good that our Mayor wants to further improve air quality.  That is the important aim, rather than pick holes in what he said.      
    • Anyone know what’s happening to the space where Megan’s was? Tried the qr code not still none the wiser.
    • There's an indicative map here of whi falls foul. Sevreal dozen in SE 22ml. I dont think this is up to date though. And by the time the government have done their "independent" valuations I think we can expect a lot more to fall into this tax trap.   https://taxpolicy.org.uk/2025/11/27/mansion-tax-map-where-the-money-comes-from/
