Keep us informed on how this panned out. Glad you're ok and can't believe he didn't pull over to discuss things further. Driving without due care and leaving the scene. A ban at least I'd hope!

Grab a key and bleed it. It's relatively easy. Open it gently and wad the 'keyhole' with an old rag as hot, black water may spurt forth. Check that you know where your stopcock is before you embark just incase you panic and open it too far or is pops out.

Wow! Cudos my friend. Where are you based and how many miles do you rack up in an average delivery run? How many muffins per Sunday batch? Is it just you or are there many of you? So many questions...

So who was the brave soul on a deep red Bob Jackson in a black top and hat with just knee length shorts heading into town on Whitechapel at about noon today? He must be on here?

Yeah Skully, go along and check out the main piece. No booking necessary although you may have to queue. If you can do it while most are tucked up in offices then the queue will be shorter. I won't ruin it but it's a massive immersive environment built into the main gallery space. They drip 5 people at a time into it through a Willy Wonka style Mike TV waiting room. Just as you're getting narked with the wait and considering leaving remind yourself that it's ten times better once in than it looks from the outside. You won't regret the trip I guarantee it.

Let me know what you think.

Sorry to jump in there MF - I suppose I'm quite enthusiastic about this particular show. You have to kiss a lot of commercial exhibition frogs to get an experience akin to that one!

Which raises the question; when will the tate hand the keys to the Turbine Hall over to Turrell? I have to say I really enjoyed Nauman's sound piece in there too. Shame I missed your sarcasm Bagheera, I have to say that all things considered I did a good job not ranting at the comparison!

We're on a genre tip now though folks, so who's taken a visit to DIA Centre's new and astonishing outpost in Beacon, Upstate New York? No Turrell's, but so many who could be considered his contemporaries such as Flavin, Sandbach, Serra, Heitzer.... It's a brilliant purist environment. I loved it!

Oh come on people! $57 for key chain !!!

So is it your size too? Bit of a find if you fit it!

The nuts thing about the big space is that whilst looking forwards into infinity is awesome, turning around and gazing back into the white waiting room gives a vivid complimentary colour the likes of which I've only ever read about in colour theory books! Science in action. Beautiful. Sometimes an artist spends their waking life honing something and making it work so well that the usual critical responses are rendered redundant. Cracking show! Can't agree that it's Viola honed back to basics though. Usually I find BV to be overtly narrative and gimmicky. He's really cheesy and emotive at the best of times but pretty MTV in the context of Turrell...

Bloody hell! You lot rattling on about Pierre's bike made me think the original poster's frame was still available.

+++++++

Did anyone see his show at the Louise T Blouin institute a couple of years back. He also has a really low key but quite beautiful permanent space at Yorkshire Sculpture Park. One day I'm going to make a pilgrimage from Marfa Texas up towards California and take in Lightning Field by De Maria, Sun Tunnels by Holt, Spiral Jetty by Smithson, City Complex by Heitzer and Roden Crater. What a couple of weeks that will be!

^^ What's the guy actually trying to do in the first place? Is he smacking the cyclists as the pass / trying to door them or what? Either way, that looks nasty! Muppet though he is I hope it wasn't as mortal as it appeared!

Smuggest company ever? Me not want pinty with that mob!

Frame size?

skully is on bbc 6music right now?

Good day bad day?

"Drop the bomb. Exterminate them all."

Rubber gloves and long sleeves at the least BRM otherwise you'll be Calomining her up for days mark my words! (and that's not as fun as it sounds).

Right, I know I'm probably teaching Granny to suck eggs here but we all know that it's a particularly bad call to get any juice from that Knotweed on your skin right? I blundered into a strimming session with no shirt and no clue about botanics once... blisters were a bitch!!!

No way that's right! If he nicked it and didn't fit it he'd just have bailed and left it where it lay. He wouldn't take the risk of returning it surely?

I think the general quality of riding has to be seen to be improvable. To be honest I'm someone who's been riding a fair bit in my yoof but spent a fair time on the old public transport before re-discovering my love of two wheels again. I suppose you could say I'm a weekender and low miler. But I'm aware how treacherous it can be out there and I'm increasingly aware of etiquette as regards other cyclists. The reason I frequent this forum is to pick up insight into this stuff from those more experienced. I'm becoming a better cyclist as a result. It's all about education... Just acknowledging that I'm not a 2 wheeled super hero and that I should spend as much effort staying alive as improving my cadence helps a bunch. Pissing down with rain today so I took a couple of MPH off and made survival my priority. I'm learning, why can't others?

The job I have is the one i want (I make art - and when I'm not making it I get paid to talk about it). It's the one I always wanted. Still gripe about it at least once a week but I'm a lucky boy for sure.

I've said it once and I'll say it again... Curse my stumpy legs and T Rex arms!

Lefty

Great news mate, fingers crossed for the Brompton too. On your travels did you get a phone number for the cycle task force? Were the switch board aware who you were talking about when you asked to be connected with them? Are there any useful numbers which we could all stick in our contacts in case (touch wood) we ever need them?

This I really like!

MASSIVE CUNT!!!1!

Yes, i filtered in front of your shitty Ford Focus into the asl, but please don't try and run me off the fucking road like a psychotic microdick.

If i wasn't in desperate need of cheap Tesco wine, i would have caught up with you, and, and, maybe said something

Black focus, OKR ? Had simlar grief from a woman the other day. I'm a prick for safely signalling and filtering around a slowing bus apparently. She actually sped up to shorten the gap I had. Meanie!
