Hi! Been living in London 5 years, 4.5 of which i spent walking everywhere wishing I had a bike. Then I decided to get my act together, got a load of second hand parts including a perfectly good pug frame rescued from a tip and a raleigh frame I got in a blind auction for university furniture for £10.05. Decided to go with the raleigh frame, went SS (because I couldn't be bothered fitting deraileurs back on) and haven't looked back since! I love cycling london, even my commute from whitechapel to Kings X is now a pleasure! (mostly).
