I started going to my new gig in Canary Wharf by bike this Monday and left it parked outside my gym. When I came back at night, someone had put a note on my helmet saying "Nice bike! londonfgss.com". I did not need the site plug, but the compliment is appreciated.

Who else works around the area?

Saw somebody changing a puncture on a wheel that contained a londonfgss spoke card, outside Cycle Surgery Holborn last night. Didn't have time to stop.

Was it anyone on here?
