Heads up anyone that rides through Camberwell... riding down Coldharbour Lane, turned on to Denmark Hill approaching Camberwell and sweeeeerve as some nutter is standing between two buses swinging a road bike out like a pendulum across my path at arms length! Stopped to ask him what he was up to and his response was an incoherent torrent of swear words and insults. Assumed he was chemically imbalanced/intoxicated/unstable, rode out of there and though better of it. Thanks to the lady on the grey single speed at the lights that asked if everything was okay! Keep them peeled there are some oddballs out there....
London has the highest concentration of mental illness in the UK.
Lambeth has the highest concentration in London.
Brixton/Camberwell has the highest concentration in Lambeth.
Coldharbour Lane has the highest concentration in Brixton/Camberwell.
Yeah, think that's just because of the nearby mental health units, often go past unstable folk around there. Never seen anyone be dangerous like that though, will keep my eyes out.
