Whip A Skid?

Correct

What? Oliver, really! Dearie dearie me?

Well, I didn't invent SCOOT (and I think it's shit). And I didn't force Scoot to pick her username. :)

As an aside, I don't even know if Brixton Water Lane is on SCOOT, but I'd be very surprised if Brixton Town Centre wasn't. Tibbs can probably tell.

It would explain why I seem to have excellent luck with green lights.

I managed to get green lights the entire length of Blackfriars Road once....I thought that was a physical impossibility!

PS Railton Road a is way faster route through Brixton for you guys...
#justsayin

I tried that route for a while but always seemed to get stuck behind a bus or other slow moving traffic, and the traffic lights by the market always seem to take an age. The Effra road way may be longer but at least you feel like you're getting there faster!

Railton fo sho. If buses really a problem (can't say I'd noticed) can take Shakespeare and Loughborough road. Shakespeare is virtually traffic free - it's eery

Screw Railton (such traffic, many bus, much parked car..) Shakespeare is better and you get to ride past the Hadid-designed school/battleship.

Loughborough > Milkwood with a cheeky left turn at the end is the best route to Herne Hill velodrome (means you get off Brixton Rd sooner and also brings you out the right side of the train tracks in HH - misses all the lights and mess on the park side).

Railton Road is piss easy... They'll get lost trying to come that way...

I like to go past le reej after track to see if I can spot any OG forumengers. Kind of like a vintage hipster safari park.

They're really trusting, too, you can feed them.

Proceed with caution, we have lost the occasional finger at Le Reej...

Just you wait for pedestrian SCOOT Oliver, just you wait. If you think SCOOT is pointless now you've seen nothing yet.

I know about that, and it's an obvious case of

I was talking about beer, feeding them BEER.

Yeah, me too...

Don't have your finger in the beer, then.

Spotted a lone Grupetto rider up on The Ridge this afternoon. And had a nice chat with a Pretorious rider on the way back in, whose musical carbon wheels brightened my day. #nofixies

I thought it was Grupetto. Anyway...

Hmmm, I don't think he had a beard, and he was more stocky than 'fat'...

I think he was riding a titanium bike. Obviously I didn't get a good look as I was going so fast and I am fabulous.

Grueptto is the new Finnish chapter.

Out in Kent this morning, I saw team Kinoko lead by Jammy heading towards the top of Starhill to descend as we had just ascended.

Also, a couple of blokes (one in Rapha hi-viz gilet) passed us (small group of three) near Knockholt and then stopped at the Cafe in Downe which we didn't have cash monies for. I was sure I recognised both or one of you from 'on here' but couldn't place a name.

small phone, big fingers

Well, then, all due respect.

skydancer earlier today on Essex Rd / Balls Pond Rd junction.

Clive and Andrew yesterday at HHV, doing the training accreditation, think you're both on here. Also some others but I forgot everyones name! Didn't get to speak after but I'm sure you all passed :) I had the tiny Condor.
