RIP

The price hike isn't enough. If it was I could justify a Brompton...

Do you ever X-ray yourself for fun?

If I had access to an X-ray machine I don't think I'd take pictures of myself but random household objects.

It's a different angle but otherwise I think this is a re-tag? Not that I can find the previous one at the moment.

A cylist died today following a collision on Wilmslow Road.

Police and other emergency services were called to a serious road traffic collision on Wilmslow Road, near to a car dealership, at 10.26am this morning, Saturday 24th November.

The collision involved a cyclist and a Porsche Boxter, driven by a 50 year old local woman.

The cyclist, a local woman aged 77 years, was taken to Wythenshawe Hospital where she sadly later died of her injuries.

You could use a hire bike. It is well outside the zone but I've seen them even further out.

It seems to have happened yesterday (20th).

The building hasn't been used for religion for more than 35 years

Is 'Jewel Box House' its official name?

Old - Jewel Box house, east finchley. Can't find much on this now - strikes me as a bit of a mess. Wonder if it's derelict?

There were people working outside it on Saturday so it isn't completely abandoned.

Does this need more clues? I thought whatok was going to bag it but that post seems to have disappeared.

Daytime shot:

Apparently a Jewel Box, I assume the sparkly things are hidden away inside.

Damn wheelie-bins.

The old nursing home down the road from me is being converted into flats. The plans used to have a hut thing in the front for wheelie-bins but the neighbours complained about not enough parking (which is rubbish) so the hut has gone and the wheelie-bins will now be in what was going to be the cycle-store.

So instead of building 6 flats with a secure cycle store for 6 bikes (not nearly enough but a start) there will be 6 flats with no bike parking but more room for cars. Hooray.

A few years ago this was built as a grand house but it has weathered very badly. Must have been a terrible design.

I'm not sure about this one but my other ideas had either been removed by the authorities (was going to be http://farm5.staticflickr.com/4115/4789866500_334d501032_z.jpg because I love the graffiti) or it was just too damn dark.

Greetings folks,
Perhaps it is just me, but for fear of sounding like a complete Luddite, do you really need a GPS sat nav type thing anyway?

I was pleased to have my GPS last year, without it I'd have followed some others up a wrong turn. The route sheet is good but it's easier to follow a directions when the thing beeps a few hundred feet before a turn.

Any tips for keeping the Garmin sweet for a 1-way ride?

My Edge 205 can only manage 6 hours now so I've rigged up an external USB battery pack which should keep it going for days.

(but I'm not riding back because that is for crazies!)

Cyclist and van according to the the Hackney Gazette.

"Mary is still not conscious and remains in a trauma unit"

This one perhaps We treated a 38yo male cyclist for pelvic & lower limb injuries following a collision with a lorry in EC3 this pm & tk him to Royal Ldn Hosp ?

I think she is the 16th :(

If she was heading for Thomas More Square where News International have a lot of offices she might not have been turning left.

I daily cross the same junction and the temptation to try and pass vehicles is high as the wait at the lights is fairly long and for me it comes just after what often feels like a long wait at Cable Street.
