You can normally do cycle training via goldsmiths. But if not via the uni, you can do it either in the borough you live or study. Or both even. Ask your instructor to help you plan you route from home-school. It takes some time to get used to London and get to know the ways from a to b. Took me about two years. Good luck.

@Ziggy.
I'm sure I'm not the only one to have been/to be in this position and I'm sure there's already a thread for this, but...
I've recently moved down to South East London to attend university and back home I'm a very keen cyclist and I ride both road and fixed. Moving to London and maintaining that 'keen-ness' in cycling has been difficult so far, in part because of how unfamiliar I am with how to get from A to B in this city and secondly because there just seems to be absolutely no one else about at the university I attend (Goldsmiths) who can show me the way and has that same passion.
So my question to all of you who are obviously very experienced in riding around London is:
What is the best way to learn how to get around London?
What clubs/groups are there around East/South East London which I can join that will 'show me the way' when it comes to smashing out the miles and/or generally having a good time on the bike?
Thank you in advance for your help!
