The Other Asylum…. Trains, tardiness and trade. July 7, 2015 · 12:00 pm. I want to ride my bicycle, I want to ride my bike. On June 29th 1878 the Wanderers Bicycle Club, based in Lavender Hill London, came to Caterham Asylum. The club had asked for permission to use the cricket ground for their ‘annual races’. The letter explaining the days event was sent to Dr James Adam three weeks prior, on beautifully designed headed paper.
