Todays Metro

I pointed the ad out to my wife at the weekend.

Fair enough.

My wife's agency, AMV/BBDO, does Guinness print ads in the UK so I've had her on the case.

The cyclist is named Rob and he's on his own bike.

Don't have any info on the girl riding his bars, or whether he's a fellow forumenger.

@dmczone - can you ask them why they felt the need to reverse the image?

I love Roupell Street and Whittlesey Street, two of my favourite streets in London... We get pissed there all the time tho', innit Andy?

fucking A. i did some work down at ITV and IBM (only work in companies with TLAs beginning in I sadly) hard to get your noodle box round the fact you are bang in the city there.
I always hum the hovis tune when i walk along em, seems to fit

that chic on the bars has bigger forearms than leyton hewitt. she'd rip your knob off giving you a milkshake!

Looks like Rob is a member of LGFSS and he'll be checking the thread out soon.

Yeah, that really twisted my melon when I first saw it... Thought about it for a good five minutes then had to go for a lie down...

ANOTHER apostrophe fail...

The cyclist, who also works there, is named Roy and he's on his own bike.

And his own leotard/camo short/pop sock outfit?
Or was that left over from Strictly Cunts Dancing (which I don't watch...ahem!)

Just checked the thread - it is indeed me, on my own bike, selling out to those big advertising types! I had a great view though.....

right...were they actually walking? or were they all pretending to walk? its been bugging me!

thought I'd recognised the bike.
hows the holdsworth doing?

Perhaps he doesn't check the mirror to see what he looks like before he leaves the house

surely the tights / camo / white socks combo is a winner, no?!
It's not the Holdsworth, 'Eyebrows' - my house mate Liam bought that. The bike on show is an old Carlton track frame. Anyway, I have a new ride now as seen here: http://www.projectmanageme.blogspot.com/
Oh, and it was all fake - no one was walking / running / cycling anywhere....sorry to blow anyone's cover!

as i thought!!!

so how did you manage to look like you were riding! with that lovely lady on the bars!? tres bien to you sir.

I know that, but i can't remember his forum name.
how is it treating him?

If this image has been reversed I would guess it is so all the people are moving in the same direction as you read English, left to right. For flow. Why wasn't the shot set up like that in the first place?

Liam has the Holdsworth. He likes it a little too much, but as a result it is more of a wall hanger than street user at the moment.
My bike was locked on to a roller in the ad - i got to cycle on the spot and stare at her back for 4 hours. Genius.....

that's question for the photographer and i've no idea who he is. It was probably something to with lighting and background

Still a bad paper!

Where?

Hairdresser's. Probably photoshopped.They love a bit of irony those ad creatives. Not about themselves mind.

He's using dildo bars.

You could argue that it's grammatically correct. It's a salon, which belongs to the hairdresser, therefore the salon is the hairdresser's.

wasn't that shot in waterloo ?
surely...
i recognise my favourite cake shop
