Bicycle Tag of bike

K erni ng is so ann oying

cyclotron, have you read the XKCD today/yesterday about kerning?

http://xkcd.com/1015/

Yeah, I did actually :)

I swear the S in ISLINGTON has been installed upside down.

It has.

NB This is NOT the new tag

Shame - I know that one - would have been three in two days after only ever knowing one previously!

My first.

Old:

7 Kensington Park Gardens, Notting Hill, London W11 3HB
Sir Crooke, scientist lived there until death.

New:

Let's try without a clue because it's incredibly distinctive as buildings go... I hope someone gets it in the daytime. If it's not grabbed by tomorrow afternoon I'll add a clue.

Go David, way to join the tagging throng.

You mean, with a shite cellphone picture late at night, and over exposed.

I thought I recognised the new one straight away. I thought it was a place in Kilburn that I've passed many, many times. So I bunged it into google to verify. It isn't. But the first result when I googled the wrong place gave me the right place even tho the phrase I used has nothing to do with it at all. I'm not going to say what the phrase was or you'll all get it, and without the phrase this story is a bit pointless. Sorry to have wasted your time.

I was so sure it was that place in Kilburn too

You mean, with a shite cellphone picture late at night, and over exposed.

Great new first tag Velocio!
Like the overexposure, adds an air of ghostly mystery,
Congrats

A clue: Mander rebuilt one nearby.

You pulled out all the stops for your first tag, then Velocio.

Ha nice one dropout!
You managed to pipe up with a pun before oliver schick

You don't need to reed between the lines to draw out the puns.

Old

New

This one needs a clue so a president went to school here recently.

The old being 26 Kensington Gore, SW7, which is the West side of the Royal Albert Hall and is where Cole built the building for the Royal College of Organists.

It's pretty incredible as buildings go, you wouldn't normally expect to see a building like this outside of Italy:

That's a pretty cool building - will detour past it one day.

Literally seconds from my college

Thanks for the description David. It really is an impressive building. As soon as I saw your picture I had a gut feeling for the Albert Hall area and a quick look around on street images took me to it.

Scoot. I was half expecting to post that ^ today as it was a 40 mile round trip to bag this one and I expected to get beaten.

The new one is something I pass regularly and have always wondered what the story is behind it. Despite a fair bit of trawling, I've failed to find it's history so hopefully someone here will shed some light. The picture doesn't help much but I suspect many have riden past this. The clue should be a dead giveaway though.

boom! a local one. race ya there kids!

old: Globe Academy School, Harper Road, SE1 visited by Obama

New:

i think the writing is clue enough but will add if it turns out to be tricky

Wow, that was fast!

^^my tribute to Nick's Bikezilla Tag

Wow, that was fast!

yep, i gots the legs ;)

actually after saying i was going i got delayed by my flatmate asking me something that took a while to look uo and explain. from which you can deduce that the old tag, the new tag and my flat are not too spread out

So, was the clue too simple or did you recognise the wall?

haha i didn't recognise the wall, even though it's on the way to SE beers and Newington polo. clue was google-friendly. nothing wrong with that though.

i couldn't make much sense of the inscription. do you know where the stone is from?
