Rant warning!

Angel, today, 11.40. To the dude who cut my line of 19 kids in half as they were crossing the road on a green man. I couldn't say this to you earlier due to the audience, but fuck you! That was a prime display of super shitty riding. Clearly my 'what the fuck?' look wasn't enough.

Rant over!

I'm the same age as you, spiderpie, and I use an ISA. You know you will get a return and there is none of the hassle that you will get from the stock market or whatever... Take the lazy option!

Who's the dude on the orange frame, spoke cards and I think rear mudguard? Gave you a kind of nod as I was leaving on weds. Me on silver frame with spoke cards.

The only snow that settled overnight in Hackney was basically ice this morning. Lame.

Nice to come down tonight, only spoke to a couple of people though (was there with work friends in another booth). Good to catch up with the Schickster and speak about mutual acquaintances and also nice to meet Somebody. Might have to make it a regular thing, norths is just a whole heap of effort!

I fixed the same issue by making my chain slightly less tight (even a slightly too tight chain is grindy as fuck and you can feel it through your feet) and by tightening the bolts on my chain ring. Try that?

I might come down for this, see how wasted I get on saturday. And tex - are you going to make it all the way there this time? Last long ride I saw you on, you gave up and went home half way???

Any news?

I went past there at about 10 this morning and there were no police fatal accident signs or anything. It would suck if there was another fatality on Morning Lane, there's already ghost bike about 100 metres further up opposite the Tescos car park.

Wash it in the canal then it will smell like you (and your mum). xxx

Dude + crowd + ambulance motorbike at the Hackney Road end of Old Street at about 11.30. Dude with yellow (?) brakeless bike, green bars, green London cycling cap. What happened??

Spoke cards? Jerk chicken? Saaahweeeet.

Best advice is to go and do an intro course at your local wall (in your case, probably Westway). Then go to a proper climbing shop (Rock On and Urban Rock come to mind) to get your bits, because the people there know what they're talking about. And enjoy!

Using 'borrow' instead of 'lend', leading to sentences like 'will you borrow me that x'.

Annoying.

How did you manage that? Office jobs are meant to be safe...

...Pinkgottimobs at Smithfields and a happy lookin courier eating lunch outside the Texaco just down the road from Bishopsgate.

Happy birthday Bendix, hope your brakeless skills improve this year!

What a good memorial ride; the messages from parents, cousin and friends at Ely Street were very, very moving. Rest in peace Emma.

Don't forget to post tonight in the Southend thread to remind people about it James. One more reminder can't hurt.

I'm going to a barbeque later. Sligtly more win.

Work out which gives you the best clearance - pointing your toes up or pointing your toes down, then do it.

Conditional dibs if it's a left shouldered bag. That's if you don't mind Rik?

Happy birthday mate, unless it's not your birthday.

In which case happy un-birthday.

Spawn of andy.w. Is hillbilly the mother?
