Saw her today riding west along Portland Road Hove, nice bike!
Also saw today a contender for the Darwin Awards. Black fixed wheel bike, brakeless, no foot retention.
He was riding along the bike lane on the seafront, someone went to cross it, he had plenty of time but chose to try and ride in front of her instead of behind, this resulted in him nearly hitting a lamp post and then careering into the road, to be greeted by blaring horns and shrieking brakes!
I wanted to stop and give him some friendly advice about the benefit of brakes and foot retention but I was laughing too hard!!
Muppet!!
