Who was at the British Library today? Nice lilac Giro locked up with the front wheel gone - rear white deep V, and a LFGSS Tarck day 3 spoke card. I locked up by you.

No way!

No way!

I not you kid. I didn't even know they were allowed to ride bikes.

Looks like you've got your work cut out at the LCC then.

They've always been terribly vague and evasive when I've asked about their bikes.

cracking spot around 6.30 this evening - the magnificent aroogah, shouting "Phil!", George Street off Edgware Road, helmet and googles throwing me.. half a second later : "Yo, Chris!".. I turned around and raced to catch up with him - fortunately the lights were red and the traffic was thick.. ages since I've seen you dude, really good to have a brief chat, hopefully see you next week for a drink...

Sounds to me like you may be drinking at the wrong Blue Posts... Rupert Street or Broadwick Street/Berwick Street (my preference)... There are NO alternatives... ;P

Mr S you have gone quite mad.

So, Tuesday night I'm cycling home after a long day on the road, the emergency Mars bar I'd eaten fifteen minutes before is beginning to take effect, I'm on to Camden Rd, going up hill and feeling ok. Then a car comes past and almost brushes my elbow. That was a bit close, I think. Then I take another look at the car and, fuck me, there's a bike on the back seat, a bike with a white Arrospok on it. So I think, hold on, I've just nearly been taken out by a *hipster *in a car. The traffic stops at the light so I skoot round to the driver's side. His window is half down so I nod at the back seat and ask "You're a cyclist?" "Yes" he says and I explain that he'd left me very little room back there. He says sorry, the lights change and we go on our way. I'm still trying to figure out what conclusions to draw.

You have abandoned politics.

blokey riding barefoot in the rain just outside brixton cycles.. i shouted 'where are your shoooooooooooooooooes?'... no reply..
bet he was australian, they never have their shoes on
:)

Black guy with crazy hair?

He came into the shop and asked to borrow the pump, I said, in a friendly, smiley way, "I'm sorry young man, someone is already using outside and you'll have to wait for them to finnish. Life is hard."
Guy smiled back and said "Life isn't hard. Life is just Life. It's people that make it hard." and did this sorta crazy walk out the door.

MA3K coming out of a side road on his Bridgestone and accelerating down the middle of the road toward Oval this morning.

Bloke this morning, maybe on a grey Condor, his bag was Black with Pink edging, having an argument by the arches near Tooley Street/Tower Bridge diversion. Argument was over RLJing. Condor man got of bike, took of helmet, offered the bloke to 'sort it out like men' and then stood arguing with him, and then telling the cabbie he had 'man tits' as he joined in with the argument.

I dont think ive ever used the phrase "sort it out like men" in my life. I was more than happy to continue our badinage, but wanted to do so on the pavement.

Oh and its a gray and pink bowery mashup. Like my bagaboo?

Have a lovely day

Good to see you too Jimjams. Hope you got your wheel and you "got your social on" (as the kids say). I shall be at Souths on Monday if you're around.

This morning - Mini Flu-perCooper on the HSK - good chatting with you and glad you're feeling better.

Also - A motorcyclist riding through the cyclist only lane under Admiralty Arch - right past a van full of 8 cops. They saw nothing and ignored the gesticulations of several cyclists. FFS.

I was sitting at a red light at Hyde park corner and a motorcyclist nails it past me and a cop car off constitution Hill.
Police did fuck all.

straight through a red light.
I shouted a lot at a closed window.

I was sitting on the side of the road, pulled over because a couple of traffic cops wanted to look over my car, they didn't explain why, but two motorcyclists nailed it past, and 2 cabs jumped a red light further up the road. When I suggested there might be bigger fish to fry like speeding motorcycles and RLJing Cabbies they threatened me with arrest for Public Order offense because according to them I was shouting, arguing, and not answering their questions. It would appear they really don't care anymore. Pulling me over and wasting 30 minutes examining a fully road legal car is a lot less effort than chasing real criminals.

Emilia this at about 11:30 in Covent Garden. I would have stopped for a chat but I was running a little bit late. :s

dont know why i allways scan this thread in the vain hope that i might have been spotted

quite pathetic really
