There's still a yellow warning of rain tomorrow so laps are off this week. Fingers crossed we get summer back next wed!

Is this happening tonight? I was just thinking if anyone fancied seeing the Elmers chaingang ride I could lead a little group at a cooperative pace tonight...happy to take us from somewhere central.

I would be up for it too depending on what time you'd be leaving central London.

I dont want to hijack this thread which is for the Regents park one, but I will be doing Elmers tomorrow; leaving London Bridge area about 6:10pm...the more the merrier. @manonvanthorenburg I'll check with Jess if RP is on tomorrow.... Kathryn

Kathryn Elizabeth Innes what's the Elmer's ride? Distance / speed etc? Am new to Dulwich so don't know all the logistics just yet! It's about 50km...takes just under 2hrs from Elmers End a loop out up Layhams, along Pilgrims Way, up to Pollhill and back round to Crystal Palace. There are different speed groups...the slowest averages about 26-28kph, depending on who is in the group. It's a good workout and nice to get out of the city. We try to do chaingang rotations whenever safe on the route. Some of us do a pre-meet at Cadence at 7pm and roll down the hill to Elmers End where the groups set off from. www.dulwichparagon.com/index.php/wednesday-chaingang/ Link explains a bit more. I ride from London Bridge, so can happily pick people up on the way if that is helpful. Kathryn

Hi all, This year, due to a variety of reasons this has not really taken off and also in very exciting news Jess Letters who has been taking the lead on this (BIG THANKS JESS!) has developed a bump of the baby variety so will be limiting her commuting/ riding during busy times. So for this year we will be calling time on this - do of course still post up here if you are planning on heading to the park as it maybe that there are others who are able to join you. For those who are still interested in doing chain gang do have a chat with Kathryn Elizabeth Innes who regularly attends the Elmers End chain gang with a few of the other ladies. Do see a few of her posts in this thread re this and also drop her a line with any questions. Hope to see you all on the road soon, Libby
