THIS!
You would not believe the amount of bastards I see using their fucking phones when commuting to work, makes me fucking sick. Why the do we bring in these laws if we cannot fucking police them. Sorry I just get really frustrated, almost had one drive into me the other day on the phone and I was in the middle of the road!
The police could catch hundreds if not thousands of drivers every morning/evening using their phones would make more money and make figures look better. Don't fine us for cycling on the path just because we want to feel safer, fine the bastard who almost hit us off on the phone.
Seriously,
why doesn't the "law" say the phones will be confiscated and wiped, sim card destroyed.
Such such sad news.
I got aggressively swerved at this morning by a maniac in an orange and blue skip lorry, suffering from a woeful lacking in the nether regions I'm guessing.
Came out of the blue really, as I'd popped my head up to make eye contact... Nothing provocative. Gave me quite a shock, specially given the last couple of days.
Just isn't fair.
rip.

Wow, poor guy. My thought go out to the family and friends. It's sickening.
I often ride down that way, and it seems a really strange place for something like that to happen, of course not that it ever should. The road is pretty small, and as said before very quiet.
Seeing the pic of the Keltbray lorry makes me shudder, as I've been buzzed by them many a time, far to close for comfort on journeys east/south.

Good Luck, I just posted up for a mixte frame for Jayloo. ZERO replies! :(
eBay can be a good place, I got my girfriends mixte for about £25. It's not Nervex or 531 but they do pop up. Try to resist searching for "mixte" or "nervex" though as they tend to end up being higher priced. I found trawling through "ladies bike" or "frame" more successful.

Thanks man, I did have a look up and down Bethnal Green road and didn't see any, but didn't fancy leaving the bike alone much longer. Having a bike quite obviously missing a saddle with me probably made finding stolen saddles a bit harder...
I'd locked the bike outside my studio, so I'll keep checking the area.
Half thinking about setting up a weatherproof webcam or something up here to keep an eye on it...

Just had my Brooks B67 and black no name seatpost nicked from the top of brick lane. Not a biggie really as I still have the bike. But not really looking forward to having to buy another and breaking it in all over again!
Had a look round Sclater St. A couple of crack heads commenting "need a saddle for that mate?" laughing, in a slightly annoyingly knowing kind of way.
Couple of pics in case anyone see's it about...

This is my Electra (First Post!)
It's currently getting a powder coat from Armourtex, kind of urbanised it, and it's very heavy...
But it's seriously one of the comfiest bikes I've ever ridden. Did the London to Brighton on it twice now.
For inspiration!
People will forget about bars soon. They're overated. It's all about steering with an empty stem. Brake lever between the teeth for those less daring.
