Oh thanks for that!

No wozzers. I'll probably be there singlespeed. Just need to rearrange some plans

Will there be spokecards?

Going to do all your rides on different bikes!

Nope.
My rides never had spokecards.
Events did, but I don't have time either way.
Probably using different bikes, three at least.

Weather is looking good, low chance of rain and looking to be around 12c

I'll bring down some shirts in case anybody wants one.

Looks ok tonight.

There was an incident by Edgware Road station this evening with multiple riders jumping a red light and an altercation occurring with somebody trying to cross the road whilst green for pedestrians. It was also evident that threats were made. Thankfully I was able to film what happened and have given this video to the guy concerned, being a cyclist myself I would appreciate a response to this, to possibly resolve before this gets escalated .

I look forward to your response.

Doesn't sound like the circle ride to me

Unfortunately I didn't see any incident so I am not in the position to comment. Had I seen anything I would have stepped in and resolved it on the spot.

The ride today was made up of new and old forum members plus a large number of people who learned of the ride via social media and have no connection whatsoever with this forum.

At the top of this thread there is a clear DBAD request but ultimately how people choose to ride and respond to interactions with pedestrians, drivers and other cyclists is on them.

Anyway, was a great ride tonight.

Weather was suprisingly mild (that wind can GTFO though) and it didn't rain.

Glad I was able to catch up with a bunch of people and give away shirts to OG forumengers.
Also stoked I was able to sell a lot more.

Looking forward to the rest of the events I have planned for my last month here.

Great Ride.

Didn't see anything constituting an incident, heard of an altercation behind the main group.
Possibly due to a pedestrian getting inpatient and unsafely attempting to cross the road.

Great ride and fun pace, thanks all. Made my last train at baker street!

top ride! Looking forward to bridges

Great ride, I failed to complete and peeled off at Euston as I am really unfit.

.

Does anyone know the guys that were wearing gopros? Would be cool to see some footage

Think it was a rider from Fixed Beers, maybe IG or website?

Will have a look ta!
