So you are happy with police and every man and his dog going by their own interpretations of the law?

Pretty certain my behaviour isn't posing any risk to myself or others and while there are no specific prohibitions in law to adhere to I am going to carry on as I see fit.

Give it a rest.

The Porklyn is amazing up close too.

It had a recent outing on my Bridges Ride.

The annoying thing is when you hammer it in good and tight, go to put the handle on only for it to fall out.

Had good results holding the bit with a vice grip (which acts as a useful handle).

Yeah I wasn't there, can't speculate.

Fuck Gove.

On this Gov.UK can and can't do Covid page there are no specific definitions of permitted time or distances.

I live in Leyton, as far as I'm concerned the majority of London is 'local' to me.

Define close.

That wouldn't happen.

Government are only going to put police out for public order and safeguarding property. They dgaf about hungry children or they would have directed resource at it already.

Enjoying being part of a police state probably takes precedence.

Where was this?

I didn't know there was any law yet on distance/time away from home.

I guess at present the cops will be able to interpret guidelines however they want.

Cool, thanks.

Just a quick 20KM today while the sun was out.
Its moody af now.

Provide the objective definition..

Bikes are stuck here too.

Can't really justify any more events for a long while yet though.

^ ha.

Well the first three quarters of the month was fucking excellent. A series of quick, dry and well attended rides.

Along with Drag Sprints tonight the wake is also cancelled.

Stuck here for the duration.

If I am by myself, I am on my own.

Ten minutes sitting in a park, in the sunshine is a vital part of my sanity top-up.

I am not going to be blamed and shamed for the thick-headed, heavy-handed misallocation of Police resource.

I did that with a garbage man yesterday.

Was out walking a little trail in Leyton where he was pulling some stuff out of the undergrowth and in passing said "you really notice who the essential workers are when everything shuts down". "Thanks!"

It wasn't awks, so what have you got to lose?

Smash a torx head in there and twist.

I went for a 60km circuit of London coming close to absolutely noone. On my way back through Clissold Park I sat on the grass to have a few moments in the sun and stretch my legs.

After 10 minutes a cop moved me on although there was nobody within 7-8 meters of me.

If they wanted to make a real impact they should take the Police out of the parks and station them up and down Green Lanes and other high streets to enforce distancing. Currently shopkeepers are making a great show of controlling access but everybody just mills around on heaving pavements.

Ah, they've seen my Strava.

Do have a link for that?

Leyton lockdown.
Other cat is timid AF, won't leave the living room.

Needed some toothpaste and exercise.

Stratford Westfield M&S, Boots, Superdrug and Waitrose are open.

Boots have red spots on the ground and are operating one in, one out.
Security everywhere too.

Its a 5K hike down the Lea from mine but its way less crowded than the Aldi next door.

Bonus you can wash your hands on the way in and out.

I went through twice yesterday (it is a pleasant way to skip a lot of the terrible east end roads).

Most people I saw were by themselves and adhering to distancing. Police riding horses side by side however were not.
