• there's a 20m stretch at the end of Wandsworth Park through a private drive with signs asking people to dismount. 95% of the time I'm the only one pushing my bike through....

  • I've always wondered what the history of that place (Blade Mews) is.

    My guess is that the land was sold off for development with the requirement that access to the park is maintained (rather than blocking off that gate). But the "no cycling" signs that have been put up aren't just advisory. (Behind Blade Mews there's an odd section of path that's part of the park but gated off.)

    There are even no cycling signs that look like they apply to the public road next to the private bit: https://goo.gl/maps/58wrhSjJtvR2

    It's one of the few signs that I ignore most of the time. (The other one is the no cycling sign on the little bridge over the tube tracks between Keswick Rd and Clockhouse Pl.)
