Hackney calling

http://www.cafeoto.co.uk/programme/IainSinclair.shtm

Ian sinclair's new book is excellent, I'm just getting stuck into it at the moment. I can't go to this event tonight off Dalston Lane but I reckon it's going to ace. And free! And cafe Oto sells great booze. Check it all you culture vultures.

Ahh, I really wanted to go to this (and pick up a copy of the book), but in Gloucester.

Shame I'm not around. I definitely would have gone to this.

I read about this in a Bishopsgate publication yesterday.

Its repreated, if its the same thing, in a couple of days. Unfortunately it looks sold out:

I'm off to the Bishopsgate event on Thursday, it looks more serious and less fun than the event tonight at Cafe Otto.
Sinclair is much more a walker than cyclist, but in the first section he tells of injuring his leg and having to dig out his bike to get around. A fine counterpoint to the experience of Ken Worpole, another Hackney writer of the Centerprise generation, who cycled so much the physio told him to walk more or risk losing the power of his walking muscles.

Like many of us Sinclair first got to understand London through cycling to work. Few people understand London better.

I never knew cycling could be bad for you. I just supposed that, being a low impact exerise, it does not give you the gripe of walking/running.

Great place.

Since you were participating, we had to get that many kids on the ride to get the age average down to something acceptable, though.

^Oldist!

Lots of people cycle in Hackney
