Boris Bike Alleycat

Who is registered for these things?

It could be like a Kierin alleycat. Everyone on identical bikes so it's all about the rider.

think the rapha cc/rapha condor sharp dudes are doing regents park laps in lycra and on boris bikes this thursday.

^ now that would be a good photo op!

I'm not registered, but totally would for something like this!

As a result of loving my new steel steed, I couldn't possibly entertain attempting to ride something that has the turning circle of the Exxon Valdez and weighs as much as the Isle of Wight.

As a result of loving my old steel steed, I would be perfectly suited to ride something that has the turning circle of the Exxon Valdez and weighs as much as the Isle of Wight.

This is clearly my antipodeanness showing but should we just abbrieviate Boris bike to Bozza?

They've already done Bojo, no?

"Boikes"

Bikes. Da.

Bikes and a bottle of vodka. Da.

Bojo, Bozza, Blojo, Bogo whatever. I just don't want to say "Barclays Hire bike" every time I refer to a "Barclays Hire Bike" or "Barclays Cycle Hire when refering to "Barclays Cycle Hire" as the whole thing. Everyone else's (other cities) use one word like the Velib or Bixi. That's cool, that's right, that's better. Than "Barclays Cycle Hire" which is totally shite.

Should we start a poll, vote on the "word" and get our term out to the masses by dropping it into everyday conversation?

Bojo's looking very tanned these days....

I had a T5. Would have another - fucking GREAT car.

As it's Boris a Bonk, collective noun, Bonkers.

Farkleys.

Whoah. This is a thread about "Barclays cycle hire" bikes and their misappropriation for an alley cat. Not Fucking Boxy Swedish thingys.

Rubbish, a Farkley is way better....

No it's not. A tank or a tank with a turbo- work it out.......

Bet I can get across zone 1 a lot quicker on a Bunkley than you can in you Vulvo, whether it's got a hair dryer on it or not.

Fine. Meet you at 3am on Tuesday morning.
