This morning's commute and other commuting stories

A long time ago, SE beers (RIP) had a bit of a 'race' starting from the Roebuck, through the 'gate', around the square and back again.

Think it might have been @reeen who stacked it the best at the gate, but I might be wrong.

Either way it was worth it.

Thank you! Great to know there are lots of options. I think you are convincing me (actually mainly my gf) that I need another bike? I think you mean to say yes? haha.

Ofo-geddon at the moment round where I live, they're everywhere! Never seen one in use though

I considered it breiefly last night and this morning. But no.

I'm quite liking the Mobikes, although they do appear to have one very low gear and surprisingly bad brakes for disc brakes (although I did notice that whilst riding one in the snow I guess).

Does no one else approach with an unnecessarily big skid into 'the line' as so...

I like this line.

Another option.

Penny farthing would get through there with ease.

Really you should be following the arrows.

Is it someone on here who commutes down wells park road of a morning with their kids?
One of them on a bike?
The other holding on to their dad for grim life like a baby spider monkey?

Jorts, the most functional of all cycling clothing.

Double tyre rear, tyre belt front, and still the fairies come, 2 in 2 weeks and getting sick of useless flat tyres FFS

Air time!

All these drawings and no poos added to blame for the expected crash. Forum I am disappoint.
