What the WTF is with riding on the pavement? Scared of cars?
Just spotted a light blue bike with no grips riding west along Old St/Clerkenwell Rd, with an orange/pink LFGSS cog dangling from it's saddle (fnarr fnarr). Nice colour! Bit like the light metallic blue Peugeot did the MkI 205 GTi 1.6's back in the early 80's. The MkII came in the more familiar red, black, white and grey, and are far less rare.

I've gotta get rid of my car (classic Mini Cooper) for a more 'suitable' one (i.e. to carry a family around). Head says Ford Focus or VW Golf, but heart says Peugeot 205 GTi or a Fiat Coupe!

Fixed.
I spotted a chap with a Unipak on the A4 near Earl's Court having some major chain-fail issues this morning.

I had a very late model Miami Blue 1.6. LOVED it. Even when the little fucker would overheat and stall on my twice-daily hack between Redditch and Brum. It was running rich, probably got about 9 mpg, but that woofly, hollow roar that reverberated though the whole car when you started it up is embossed on my eardrums.

Ooooh blimey, can't remeber, I was feeling a little worse for wear after a heavy meal at the Ivy :(
Since you ask and I do like any excuse to pimp my bike(s) out, mon velos:
No I didn't see you actually, I'm sure I would have noticed your bike!
I did see Arsen_design this morning on his gusseted lo-pro affair, crossing Blackfriars Bridge. It was busy traffic so I didn't shout.
Also Matt and I (being peds) saw Yorgo going west on Old Street 10pm last night - we did shout but you were in your own little world!
