Did anyone else encounter the big oil slick at the east end of Surrey Canal Road (at the quietway crossing) last night? I was hammering it to get to Goldsmiths for a lecture and there was another cyclist shouting 'get off your bike, you have to get off your bike', and at first I thought he was telling me I couldn't cycle across the (mixed use) pedestrian crossing... then I saw a moped driver holding up his bike and looking very sheepish as the oil flowed downhill in three directions. Slippy/10.
In other news does anyone know how to get oil off of a Rapha rain jacket? Some flicked up from the guy in front of me.
@Batt did you get a better deal from your clients when you turned up looking like a bruiser hard man with battered knuckles?
