Thanks. Anyone looking to shift a brompton?

I think that came across. I really like the serious ones. Especially in contrast to FA Dave.

Ouch. Right in the feels.

Folding bikes: Is Brompton the way to go? Or are there other options worth considering?

No hi-vis.

^^Is anyone on here bidding on this? I'm sorely tempted.

I just stumbled across this thread. What a collection!!! Where do you find them?

Is this the same as leaving the scene of an accident? It's fucking awful form. I hope you get somewhere with it.

That'll buff out.

Double whammy!! I've not worked the last two Fridays and missed these. Lovely stuff as per usual. And the prospect of Luci Live is something to look forward to!

I'm thinking of getting early morning climbs at the Arch in before work. I'll post if I ever manage to put this into action.
I was at the Biscuit Factory yesterday morning.

Love that.

Yeah!! Fifteen!!!

Rode in with a gent on a full carbon Planet X with white forks. Had a good sprint over London Bridge. Seemed like he could be "on here".

I love this thread! Amazing work all. Were I any kind of photographer I'd enter something. For now, I'm very happy lurking.

So true. A few smiles and waves of thanks and my mood is always improved.

Edit: Well, that didn't work. As you were.

Had a good chat about the state of Bishopsgate with a chap on an Enigma Etape on the way home last night.

And rolled with @chrisbmx116 this morning.

Does the sun make folks more friendly?

I'm not going to report it. There was no damage and nothing would come of it anyway. I gave the driver a hard time about it so I hope they'll think a little more next time.

@Sparky @chris0 It's a fucking horrible feeling. There's no escaping the fact that a big metal vehicle has carelessly toppled you into the middle of the road. I'm 6'4" and 14.5 stone so I'm not invisible. Although, if your face is in your phone, it's hard to see what's going on around you, so fair enough.

I had a driver roll into my back wheel while I was track standing at a red light on Bishopsgate. I have no idea how one manages that sort of thing if any attention is being paid.

I'd then like to call myself out for riding like a bit of a weapon the rest of the way to work. The red mist descended.

^^Yesterday evening, this. This morning, not this.

That settles it then. Now we just have to actually get the house.

Just don't mention Fleetwood Mac. Not post Peter Green, anyway.

Thanks for this. I missed your input somehow.

I think I'd thought of most of these issues. The area we're looking at is sky-rocketing at the moment and every offer we (EDIT: the two of us rather than the four) make is being out bid by a colossal margin. I think when we eventually part ways we should be doing ok, not least because the repayments are tiny between the four of us so we'll be putting down the maximum overpayment and saving as much as we can.

Also, the cost of improvements will be split four ways (and both one half of the other couple and the father of the other half are architects).
