    Clearly I spend too much time looking at bikes... I should probably point out that it wasn't me that tampered with it! Nice bike anyway.

    Is it a black single speed with bullhorns by any chance? Always looks pretty secure, although probably not difficult to cut through those railings, I expect.

    That's very true ;)

    Encountered some really shit bike handling on the way home. Special shouts to the guy on the Brompton riding around a corner on the wrong side of the road by battersea high street who almost took me out and also to the bloke on the boris bike who told me to fuck off after I pointed out he was going down a one way street the wrong way. 4/10.

    In hindsight, that's what I should have done... Hopefully should be able to get the bike sorted this evening. If anyone sees a Bianchi Pista with wonky bars going through the streets of Battersea tonight, well... that'll be me.

    Nightmare this morning... CS8 didn't seem too bad, but the pedestrian who was looking at her phone and decided to step out in front of me as I went through a green light was a definite high point. Went into her at 35kmh, there was no way I could avoid her. Not a scratch on her, but my elbow is one massive wound now and the stem on my Bianchi needs straightening. All she cared about was her phone possibly being scratched. Great day.

    Managed to get a few hours in, but nothing too crazy...

    Friday night: 2.5 laps of Richmond Park in the dark plus a climb up through Kingston and a dull ride along the A3. 50km

    Saturday: solo spin down to Claygate and back, via Richmond, Ham and Petersham - around 54km

    Sunday: 4 of us went out to Kent, covered Westerham Hill, Beddlestead and a few other climbs, 73km and back in time for Paris-Roubaix.

    Hi all. Another long time lurker here. Live in South London and just added a Bianchi Pista to my fleet of bikes. Rode fixed for a bit when I got back into riding a couple of years ago and planning on going back to it, although I quite like my Ultegra equipped carbon bike as well!
