Well, I just had what could be the most embarrassing spot in history.
Was cruising home with OSR post HoP through Bloomsbury street towards waterloo bridge. The traffic was epic. Spotted young blonde lady with lfgss cap. Shout DAS, so does OSR. The 3 of us roll along for a bit, I introduce myself, she tells me her name (Chris), I tell her mine, all very lovely, all is as it should be.
Then a taxi man pulls out in front of her and stops because he is pulling out into a traffic jam, I proceed to tell him off whilst trackstanding (like a boss). I then cease to become boss and lose balance (evidently cant multitask). "No problem!" I say to myself, "I shall unclip!". But my blasted overshoe is caught on the pedal so I cant. I proceed to stack it.
As I'm tumbling, i stick my arm out to break my fall, but instead I push over the young lfgss cap donning lady I met only 30 seconds ago. Somewhere during this process I also get an epic calf cramp which has now led to a limp
Fail
If you'd spot-pushed me I would have slapped you, no doubt about it.Very funny story though :)

Loooool, it was funny but i was busy getting the Batmobile outta the way pronto. The cabbie simply could not understand what on earth he had done wrong, i mean of course black cabs can retract to the size of a 2 pence piece in order to slip seamlessly into a 2mm gap between two car bumpers. WAC.
Post fail Hovis then rolls off down the road asking if his Carradice is still attached. Made me lol again.
well they do say a black cab can turn

It was ms.chris. She didn't hit the floor thankfully, merely lost her footing.
I think its time I removed the "I am elite" sticker from my helmet.

Eggpie plus possibly another couple of forum people and a whole bunch of cyclists in high-viz heading North on Woodford New Road, just before the A406 roundabout this morning. HELLO.
You saw the start of the Tour De Latitude ride. Great day for it. I was photographing it. They're all having fun at the festival now.

That was the heaviest rain I have ever seen. It was totally freaky. The storm just appeared over the valley (blue sky patches 360 degrees around) and it was like somebody was pouring a giant bucket of water on us. Great fun although my inclination to always camp on slightly raised ground turned out to be worthwhile for once.

Not entirely sure what further action they can take!

"...people who swear in public are prosecuted under section 5 Public order act 1985 which states that a person is guilty of the offence if he engages in disorderly behaviour or displaying any sign or written material or conduct likely to cause harassment, alarm, offense or distress in a public place."
Bet you a quid they don't do anything though!
Having said that, didn't somebody on the forum recently get hassled by a copper for wearing a t-shirt with a swear word on?

I camped at the bottom of Pennards, up against the railway line that year, as I had done for the last 10yrs or so. I had a giant stand up, 6 man type tent that was barely showing through the flood water after the deluge. Needless to say I never camped on Pennards again!

"Hello this is Mr Cunt, I believe you have an issue with my surname?"

^^ Anybody care to fill me on why these cunt stickers are funny? Is it some kind of in joke?

I think Dan is requesting that his bikes be stickered, the better for him to appreciate the joke.

I did consider using the stickers as valve hole covers on my Hed3s...
