Spotted...

overdrive had already suggested these, and plurabelle commented that she thought it's a 'shit road'. I actually quite like that drag. :)

I lost my virginity on cardington street. It's a shit road.

so, your anal virginity?

This morning, about 8:40am. I was cycling down Harleyford rd. towards the main Vauxhall junction (on the south side of the train bridge). The begginning of Harleyford Rd. is 1 lane, but it is then joined by another road and turns into 3 lanes.

It gets quite dangerous for cyclists because, they are pretty much required to cross the 3 lanes of fast moving traffic in order to get to the cycle paths that go under the train bridge.

So i'm indicating, slowing down. There is fairly large gap so i start edging out, but the white van driver who is a good 20 metres behind, decides to speed up and misses clipping me by a fraction.
I shout what the are you doing whilst giving him a clear indictaion of what i think of him.

He slams on his brakes, making me swerve round him - he catches me up (i'm now on the far right side of the road up aginst the pavement), and pulls right up against me - squeezing me against the pavement and shouting abuse at me before accelerating quickly to get through the lights.

I'm really rubbish at explaining this sort of thing, but hopefully that made sense.

His number plate was: BN58 VBT (I'm sure of the first 5 letters/digits, and almost sure of the last 2).

He was driving a white van with red logos splattered across it.

Unlikely that anyone will see him, or recognise his plates, but take care if you do - he is a complete cnut!

Find out who his company is from the number plate (if there is a company) and tell his boss and the old bill... I saw the whole thing BTW...

Red Dolan, blue tyres, red rapha l/s jerseyed rider. All the way from New Cross to the end of Waterloo Bridge where you took the tunnel just as I was going to ask you DAS. Had to sprint after every set of lights to keep up with you running them, and may even have got wrapped up in the jumping by the time waterloo came up... (But I beat you to the end of the bridge yesterday!)

Clefty at Clapham North last night. I was right next to you for a bit, shouted Claire as loud as I dared, but drowned out by a thousand revving mopeds.

who is the currier with the white affinity?

Was this a reddy orange SS ? If so i've seen her a few times

Think it was, yeah, i work round there, never seen her before

I mean, what's a 'shit road' anyway? I don't think it's the sort if thing we can expect there to be any sort of objective truth about. I don't like it because it has a really harsh bend that you have to brake on, and cabs are constantly turning across your way to get into the train station, and you have to pass by a really depressing hotel, and because it means I'm nearly at work...

Oliver: you may have some sort of official list where it lists the ShitRoads of London, and it's not one of them; in which case I am deeply sorry, Cardington Road. if that is indeed your real name.

Dude riding fixed with huuuuge chopper bars at The Oval... Most cumbersome beast of a bike I've ever seen... Interesting trackstand technique too... ;]

shit road

euph?

Around 7:30 this morning I cycled pretty much all the way from deptford / surrey queys to stamford street behind a chap on a pink stickered up bike with pink deep Vs and very good skiddding skills. We exchanged a nod at the lights that leads up to druid street, it was to early for a conversation I would have usually said hi. Hi any way!

That sounds like West End Dave, an ex-currier.
If you see him again tell him I love him!

dunno if this is the right place to post, but watch out if you are heading (southbound) down the kings rd, just past the slummerfields.

it looks like a couple of boxes of wine have fallen out of a van or summat, and there is broken glass out to about a metre from the kerb.

yes i have been back with some teatowels.

anyway - take a wide berth through there.

Red or white?

both

I'm on my way!!!!
