I have never been in Burgess Park so happy to defer to your judgement, but I do cycle down Albany Road relatively often on my way out to Richmond and beyond.

Does this help: http://www.southwark.gov.uk/news/article/131/derelict_pub_becomes_gym_at_burgess_park?utm_source=twitterfeed&utm_medium=twitter

Peckham Rye is awesome, apart from it being in Peckham. It's steeped in history and the garden is really nice. Mostly it's proximity to the clockhouse is a win for sure.

Chocolate custard ftw Pascalo!

William Blake supposedly saw a tree full of angel's on peckham rye

They must be really tucked away somewhere on the rye because I' cycle/walke/bus past the rye all the time and have never seen that outdoorgym

Peckham Rye. Brilliant. That new? Never seen it before. Must be up the hill and behind the cafe then?

Yeah, fairly new. Saw it on the news a few months ago. There's also a japenes garden and a formal (sexby) garden which i've never been to. Must go to peckham rye more often. I just usually end up in the clockhouse pub if i ever go near there

There deffo aint any in burgess park. I live opposite and have been in there hundreds of times and never seen any

Hello,

I had my red Specialized Allez stolen from my work’s underground secure (?!) car park on Monday morning on Chancery Lane. I don’t have any pictures but it’s pretty generic and looks like this -

Syntek I work near Smithfields so perhaps a gang did a job on local office blocks with less than attentive security guards!

The frame number is OBSM9LL14238

I know it’s not a single speed but please any sightings call me on 07793763002

Thanks

Lewis

Sorry to hear that, but could you tell us what lock you were using please?

Wtf! This blokes got a camel toe!!

Just a quick Q, with london, talking central london, people are walking about the streets with leg length 15kg bolt croppers, casually strolling upto a bike they want, crop clunk and ride away.... and passers by aren't saying anything? Place is turning more and more into Paris :/

I seem to remember a BBC news London type programme a a couple of years ago about this type of thing. Bloke locks his bike up in central london, leaves it for a bit then comes back with bolt croppers crops the lock, then rides away. Noone, of course says or does anything. So he does exactly the same thing, but this time with an angle grinder to see it the noise and sparks attract any attention. Of course it doesn't.

Having said that I was once unlocking my bike and having a bit of trouble as the barrel on the lock wasn't lined up properly sowas fiddling about, and a passer by asked me whether it was my bike.

Does anyone know if the crossbar on the kryptonite M18 is as wide as the fug? Is the M18 essensially the equivialent of a longer shackled fug? Any lndon shops stock the M18 so i can have a look at it

I know you said you weren't keen on the buff but have you tried a merino one?

Had the same when someone tacoed my back wheel and wanted them to rebuild it. I think they had it for 3 weeks before i gave up the ghost and took it to brixton cycles to do.

If your only going into the shop a a while, theres a bike rack on the opposite side of the road i seem to recall. But if your being paranoid theres the Rich Mix cinema further up the road, there's loads of bike racks (with lots of bikes attached so your bike has less chance of being the one targetted)

Too late. And...

Think they've gone a bit far with the merchandising here

+1 for Sierra Nevada.
FWIW, Tesco usually stock this in the World Beers section.

Not im my Tescum, on the Old Kent Rd, they don't :0(

As an aside if your interested in persuing the squatting thing, check out here for information near elephant an castle just off the walworth rd. They work shops, have a "squatting board" where you can get in touch with other squatters and find out about available properties. Most of the volunteers there seem to squat so have some knowledge about it, plus therese a free bike workshop there you can borrow tools (that's why I occasionally go there)

Don't have any direct experience of it but I think the waiting list is pretty long

Going to the Greenwich Union later to try out Meantime London stout. Hoping they've got it on tap rather than bottle

The Meantime stout was ok, nothing to write home about though. But as a bonus the Union's fridge was packed full of ales and 4 or 5 different stouts. I had one called Sierra Nevada stout brewed in californian which was really nice, nicer than the meantime.

As a double bonus there was a morris dancing festival thingy going on in the street outside the pub! Loads of beards and jingle bells on display (they even had morris wives in tow doing there own little dances), fuelled by frequent trips into the pub by the morrismen. What cracked me up was they all seemed to have there own tankard which they slap on the bar whenever one of em would jingle into the pub for a pint.

Btw Wetherspoons are having a beer festival at the end of oct start nov, with 50 differenct beers,ales and stouts. I'm hoping to try some nice stouts.

I dont really like wetherspoons pubs normally. Massive drinking sheds with 'orrible decor. The only one i like is the shakespear's head near holborn tube.

I noticed a big sign outside the kuntish drovers (my local 'spoons, not that i ever go in there) that all the festival beers are going to be £1.89 per pint :o)

boggle I can only assume they've redone it. It got my vote for shittest pubin London. Carpet was filthy, whole bar area reeked of vomit and there were mice running around the seats.

Maybe that's why I kinda liked it (although it's didn't smell of puke last time i was in there). I quite like knackered delapidated pubs.
