Bicycle Tag of bike

It is visible from lots of beauty spots within the Circular.

That's not within the ***th Circular either.

Good spot. A sliproad towards the C'.

this one is for the wrecking ball.

Wow, they are actually planning demolition of the entire site. Apparently, the main building has structural issues, but I'm sure one of the main reasons is the construction of car parking spaces (more than 600). All the usual planning nonsense is present in abundance--e.g., no mention of bus frequencies in discussion of public transport links, only mention that it's three minutes by bus from **** **** **** station--well then, why does it need so many car parking spaces? More than 600 for 450 dwelling units is totally excessive. I suppose this was probably determined by ****** Council under the previous Mayor of London, who I imagine may not have called it in or just waved it through.

Your mum's a ***th Circular.

Slightly* outside the circulars.

*depending on applied scale

I looked this up at the time - it's Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, father of the Bangladeshi nation.

On the lake shore just below the Bürkliplatz.

The number of spaces is determined by the PTAL rating of a site determined by TfL, along with it's urban typology (urban/suburban/rural etc) and other factors as well. It's normally a pretty good estimate and does indeed take into account the frequency of buses.

That's the one.

Sorry, I should have said I was referring to one planning report.

I think the PTAL methodology is nonsense and easily abused. In places with low public transport levels and low PTAL ratings, it permits a further worsening of the situation, instead of doing what planning should do, which is to mandate improvements in public transport or higher levels of cycling and walking everywhere. As we have seen in many cases over the years, it's even possible to get around it in places with quite high PTAL ratings. The cumulative effect of PTAL has been that even if the number of car parking spaces is only increased in low-PTAL settings (and, as above, it's not even limited to that), the additional car parking in the fringe of predominantly public transport environments puts additional pressure on inward travel. It's inconsistent (a typical policy designed by inner-urban planners (I think in Hammersmith and Fulham originally), who didn't adequately take into account the needs of other kinds of environments) and should be replaced by much more robust controls.

Once(if) it gets tagged, I'll try photographing from footpaths on other side, to show where the 600 cars will live.
Burkliplatz is a much better tag though. Should go with it.

@sinthewood.
Boom!
I thought I could get this to fit quickly - but it has taken me an age of armchair BToB to get it.
Floodlights tipped it.
Too far for me to ride out today, I'll leave it for someone else.

I thought the building I passed on my ride today looked familiar. I should have stopped and taken a picture -_-'

Some BToB-style sleuthing asked for on Twitter: https://twitter.com/Richard_001/status/908592226271469568

That bench faces east or north east, but I haven't see it before...

Not much to go on, bench looks fairly unusual so maybe someone will recognise it but @Skülly and I will need a clue.

Everybody needs a clue.

Thanks! Figures.

@Skülly and I will need a clue.

Clue: It's in the millhille of nowhere.

Shhh

I hurt my neck looking this up...

A nice route up is the bridleway between ceme' and golf, then the little lane past second ceme' up to the pond. Dead quiet.

I was actually asking for a clue to the stolen bike post, I fear your clue might have made this too easy to find, although going and getting it is a different matter. I happen to know @cgg was planning to be up early this morning, I do wonder if his extended commute had an ulterior motive of if long rides are just in his genes.

I think the stolen brompton was at Iroko Housing, Coin Street.

The 3rd picture down on the spatialagency site is very similar in style to the bench and paving in pic "7 of 11" on his tweet:
