Me, this evening (9.15), cycling along the canal beside Hackney Marshes, underneath the Mandeville st bridge here - http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=lea+bridge+road&hl=en&ll=51.557876,-0.038248&spn=0.003962,0.00927&num=100&safe=off&client=safari&t=h&z=17
I could see a couple of black youths, 14-16 years old, on the path ahead as I was cycling along. As I passed the big one, about 6'2" and 14-15 stone, (pretty distinctive to be that size, at that age, so hopefully the police will be aware of him) he stood in front of me and pulled me onto the floor, swearing, and trying to take my bike off me. I pulled the bike back, got up, and went into attack mode, shouting and fucking swearing at the fucking cunting fuck. At this point he seemed to realise that this was going to be more effort than he thought, backed off, then went away over the bridge into the Kingsmead.
Reported it to the police.
Cunts.
