well there's no cars ( or traffic lights ) apart from the buggy they occasionally ride to get lost peds off the track.

Particularly annoying attempting to get to the Boris bike stands that all seem to be on one way streets in the opposite direction to what you want.

You can either walk or bank the Strava distance you put in! ; )

Seems to be this place: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ffestiniog_Power_Station

Thanks, Must give that a go, after all I've used the Ffestiniog narrow gauge railway & the Slate mine where you have to make yourself small to get through the very narrow tunnels.

great to hear you've got your bike back. I imagine the lowlife who nicked your bike will be punished accordingly.
Had a bike accident 4/5 years ago, lots of blood and a broken jaw / fractured knee cap. I begged that bike came with me in to A & E ( I don't carry a lock ) and happily they agreed. Later I rode it 9 miles home. Slowly!

where exactly?!

Dulwich Paragon ride. Only 8 in our group to start with but we picked up a few more @ about the half way point. Sunshine most of the way but it was as cloudy/misty as Tourmalet when we hit the hills south of Biggin Hill.

Looked great, thnx

Lidl Clapham Junction have about 30 in stock. Just bought one @ £29.99. Seems pretty solid and folds down neatly.

Tasteeee

I used to ride the Mersey Tunnel before it banned bikes. Not great fun due to air quality but a great asset.
The Limehouse Link Road is a great example of how a cycle lane below ground could work. It's got speed cameras which reduce speed and therefore allow space for other road users.

It's possible in a civil action in a case like this that the police would be jointly liable for the collision. In Criminal Law there is no precedent for police liability in this type of incident. May be that should be up for review. if the roads narrow etc, then may be any chase should be by 'copter etc.
That's no comfort for the relatives.
This case is so sad.

Ice was bad, saw lots of riders on the floor. I fell off and my mate bent his rear derailleur. Going down the first hill the rider in fronts back wheel kept wriggling like a snake, not sure how he managed to keep it upright.

Terrible, so sad.

Letter said "commiserations". Not sure if this was reference to being cancelled or to the over sized branded fluro jacket they sent me.

North Kent. Dry with sunshine. Roads morphed into rivers. Gravel silt and crap on the dry bits. Oh and lots of huge new holes.
It was actually quite ace.

I saw the cordon @ 18:50 last night.FWIW rumour is that there's going to be an announcement soon about the relocation of the coach station to 2 hubs outside central London. Those monster coaches are just too big for city roads.
Hope cyclist ok

Juries in road traffic cases are often motorists who think, "There of the grace of God go I." Hence the reluctance to convict.

I also got the FHHV email.
For weekend tickets ES33 code works.

Won't be the same without Martyn Ashton. He was the star of the show for me and the kids last year.
Hear he's hand cycling now, just a few months after his accident. Awesome!

No bake Cliff bars. Tasty.
Dangerously tasty & very easy.

Well today's commute was in the car. Travelling West, approaching Hogarth's on the 3 lane A4. I moved into the middle lane as a roadie was shifting in the inside lane. Moments later I was under taken by a d*ck going at least 60 in a 40. Happily a look in my mirrors showed roadie to be still pedalling. D*ck had gone before I could get reg.
He must have passed with inches to spare!

enjoyed!
