Here's one I made earlier;

Not forgetting Curry Paradise on Brixton Hill. Best curry house in South London. FACT!

Get yerself to Tooting for your South London curry facts.

I'm done for.... this is the end of my silly childish life, next station, grown up parenthood

Ha ha. No such thing. I took my nine year old out bike riding recently and she told me off for doing skids. She said it was silly and dangerous, but she rides an MTB, what does she know?

I bet your gf was well pleased about you posting that picture on the interweb. It could be the last time you get to do any fathering if she finds out!

i thought this was going to be a request to change the forum's name to 'cycling plus'

Every day it gets a bit closer...

Indeed it does. It's all the fault of the red light jumping helmet refusenik PC brigade.

Bring back hanging and grammar schools.

The last thing anyone shouted at me from a car was "your chain's a bit slack for a fixed gear". Well, they didn't exactly shout it, more drawled it in a bloke-called-Neville-with-a-greasy-side-parting way.

Is it as bad as people say? I don't know, I've only ever been there twice: tube station to BC and the academy.

Most of the people who "say" have never been there in their lives. Robbery and violence are above average for London (see here: http://www.met.police.uk/crimefigures/datatable.php?ward=00aygd&borough=lx&period=year)

But we're talking 50 incidents per 1,000 population compared to an average of 23.3. Put another way 950 people who were untouched against 976. Either way up, the vast majority are unaffected by crime.

will this be dominated by serious roadie riders?

Nope. Worse than that, it'll be dominated by gnarley old men who ride at constant speed irrespective of the terrain. Get ready to be whupped by someone twice your age....

All done! Rides like a dream!

What, that dream where you are at work with no clothes on, and you're running towards the lift and its getting further and further away, and you realise that it's your A-levels tomorrow and you haven't been to any of the lessons even though you promised yourself you would, and everyone's laughing?

Surely when Herne Hill was built it had different access from the road? Did they really funnell olympic crowds down a 9-foot wide alley off Burbage Rd? Or did people not really give a monkeys?

I think I've spotted where you're going wrong, or at least one of the ways;

i talked to this one bird for a bit

Depending upon your point of view, calling women birds is either offensive objectification, or the lamest attempt at bravado possible. Either way up you end up looking like a loser.

... Tho' I'm never without a beautiful young lady on my arm... ;)

first time watching the tour with any real interest, are there any particular stages this year i ought to be putting in the diary...

All of 'em. This ain't Formula 1, something happens every day, be it a surprise escape, a bunch sprint. If you have to prioritise then make sure you don't miss Alpe d'Huez - there can easily be a fight for the stage, a fight for KoM and a fight for GC all going on at the same time at different points on the mountain.

The Ring Cycle - Wagner

+1 for the Gate, Manna & Mildreds

Detox is total BS by the way. Properly functioning kidneys remove all the toxins from your system. If you want to eat healthy, then call it "eating healthy stuff" rather than wrapping it in psuedo science and enriching the likes of Gillian McKeith and Carol Vorderman in the process.

Carol Vorderman has a third in Engineering, and Gillian McKeith's bought her "Phd" which is why Channel 4 no longer call her doctor.

shaftesbury avenue this morning:

This is the car that follows Mouse everywhere he goes. In this shot he's "trackstanding" in front of the bus, supported by a group of Rapha Condor branded dwarves who travel in the back of the car.

I was unable to attend due to landlady commitments, and a visit from my flatmate's friend.

That has to be the lamest excuse in history.

Just invite him along to church, he's bound to like it.

I went to school with Judas Chambers.

My daughter used to go to school with a boy called Diamond. No one took the p*ss however, as his dad was in So Solid Crew.

It's very easy to say a car isn't necessary in London when you don't have kids, but trust me - it is!

It's true. Education in London was unheard of, prior to the invention of the motor car.

I think you've confused convenience with necessity.

This is my favourite pic. I seem to be getting my arse ready to have it kicked in the 3 lap dash.

yeah how were the keirin results worked out? Cause oddsock beat me and i beat dogs?

Yeah! and how come they only go as far at top 10? I worked hard for my DFL in the Keirin Minor final and I'm not having any of you lot claiming it was you!

"©South Lanarkshire Libraries and Community Learning"

That's where my girlfriends parents live.

What? they live in a library?

gf: "Hi mum, this is my new boyfriend rusty"

gf mum: "Sssshhh!!"

+1 for all the sentiments above. Fantastic day, bring on the next one.

i like riding to work in the morning at around 6am, it doesn't happen that often, but when it does, the silent beauty of the morning is amazing, and also i avoid the hordes of commuters polluting my mind later on. and i mean cyclists.

+1. I normally leave the house before six, and on a day like today it's fantastic. Bright, cool and only the sound of my tyres on Clapham Road. I got round Elephant & Castle roundabout without breaking my rhythm this morning, which for some reason always puts a smile on my face.
