sounds like Benton or fenton to me
Yeah it was definitely Benton, the ironic thing is if he'd left it alone it would have come back sooner
This has made my day.

cool, I'll take the chain, can meet in central or wherever really.
-
Hi, Is the chain still available?
-
There's a cop shop on the other side of the little park adjacent to B'nal Green tube... would make some sense to lock up opposite there and walk round the block maybe?
It makes sense to me but then to some it's little deterrent: http://www.wimbledonguardian.co.uk/news/9052944.Brazen_bike_thieves_arrested_within_metres_of_police_station/
But they got caught so a happy ending more or less : )
-
Chalk lane is a nice steady long climb - it starts behind Epsom Hospital and finishes at the top of Epsom by the Downs.
Tiley lane is also quite nice, though you do get a few cars now and again but most drivers around there are used to cyclists. it's just the other side of the M25 Near Hurst Lane and Hurst Road you mention.
-
I usually ride Ruxley Lane - Horton Lane then into Epsom then the Langley Vale road - then do a left on to headley road - which leads you to Box Hill either along the surrey cycleway which takes you to Mickleham or you carry straight on and go around the backway to Box Hill (if you want to go there that is).
There are a lot of country lanes around epsom too - I will look up and remember the names of some of them but you can find them easily by exploring/taking wrong turns.
Some nice roads around the epsom racecourse/downs too.
-
quite possibly yup
-
Orange wheels sounds like a Mongoose
Ah yeah, that looks just like it, thanks : )
I don't think he had any mongooses under his arm though : )
-
A chap on a charge bike going up bushey road in raynes park (I think, possibly a plug - not entirely sure) but it had the trademark orange wheels/rims.
-
Might have been seen before, but impressive:
-
That stretch of bus lane has been discussed several times before here.
Ah, my mistake, I was looking at the one going south towards Holborn station/junction.
-
I think the street view is out of date.
oh, cheers, my bad.
-
that goes past Central Saint Martins college to cut through towards Covent garden
Just had a look on google street view and there's a blue sign with a bus and a cycle symbol and the word taxi - I'd challenge those fines if I were any of those cyclists. -

yes we have the right to use the queens highway, motorists are under the illusion that they own the road but are merely permitted use through licensing.
Amen, this quote from some woman when they closed Robin Hood Gate permantely in Richmond Park made me laugh so hard:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/london/3051399.stm
**
A motorist has as much right to go through the park as pedestrians," said Ms Tracey.**lmao. it's like some of them want all the rights in the park (and roads in general with little responsiblity).
