overdrive made a moving short speech before the ride, and police gave us an escort and closed the roads and junction for us. A ghost bike has been placed, flowers were laid, and I placed a wreath on behalf of LFGSS.
It was cold, but necessary. While spirits were high (probably the cold), it's clear that everyone knew why we were there and you could sense the real loss that will continue to be felt. overdrive summed it up, London lost someone special, someone who was part of the fabric of the city.
It was good to see so many people there, and good to see that it didn't pass without recognition and respects being paid.
