Squirrels are almost exclusively urban in the south-east, and don't frequent the barren wastelands of Essex and Herts.

was just riding up Tottenham Court Rd when I heard some idiot on the phone on his bike, then he passed me, then he ran a red light and got hit by a motorcycle. I hope its not anyone on here, he had gears. He's fine.

Seriously buddy, if the light turned red 10 seconds ago, you wont make it across a 4 lane intersection. His whole front wheel bent in half but he got up and walked it off.

Scaryy business..

I know it sounded heartless but I really do hope he'll learnt his lesson not to disregard the red light.

Shout to the dude who kept pace, and passed me, then got passed, then passed me on Clerkenwell Rd last night. When we got to the RAB it all became clear. he just wanted to have a good look at my drum brake ! ha ... Pity it almost took a car side-swiping him for us to strike up conversation. The Sturmey gets em again.

Spotted some chick riding up Clapham road this morning from Stockwell to Clapham North. From what I could see she had sunglasses on, a purple or creamy blue rear Deep V wheel, and she had drops.

I should be able to give a more clearer description but I saw myself in the window of a car that passed by and I got seriously distracted. So handsome

Girl last night on Shoreditch high street with THE BRIGHTEST shoes I've ever seen. Luminous green.
Didn't manage to clock the bike, was going the other way and dazzled by the shoes.

Serene? Fucking knackered, redfaced and sweaty, more like! That long pull up the side of Smithfield does me in every single day. Must. Get. Fitter.

Young ladies. On bikes. Three of them. Within minutes.

1. White '80s conversion waiting at the junction of Gt Eastern & Shoreditch High St heading North.
2. In black dress (take that you lycra lovers) on a red something-new heading West on the same junction checking out my derraileur (oo-er missus) as I jogged across the road.
3. Currier with shortish black hair, some facial silver, and a red no-geared bicycle thing heading down Gt Eastern and up Hollywell. Same young lady currier that I in fact almost slow-mo crashed into on Exmouth Market t'other day.

Afternoon all. :)
