It was a great ride: really varied, from exploring the depths of Islington to high speeds down Pall Mall to dodging traffic and high-heeled peds on Regent St. I chuckled when we went past a club and the bouncer goes "argh there's fucking hundreds of them".
Great to meet more people too.
And Alex/Seb I worked out finally that the weird noise coming from my bike was down to loose nipples. So there ya go.

I'm loving the fact that
(a) the protesters had a bit of a hard time smashing up the front of the RBS branch on Threadneedle St because all the cameramen and snappers were getting in the way; and
(b) I'm already watching a Flickr photostream of the day's events here http://www.flickr.com/photos/30938233@N08/sets/72157616220306514/show/

Just passed a dumped bike on Hammersmith Grove, opposite the junction with Richford St. (Friday 9.20am)
It's a red Specialised CrossRoads frame, with a rear wheel and handlebars and not much else. I would guess it will be there most of the day. Would make a lovely beater frame for that special person in your life.

God tell me about it. I was with this guy once, trying to get somewhere. his sat nav was taking us into this estate and I was saying. Look please listen I know it is not down there. Needless to say, he didn;t listen and ended up turning around and going the way I suggested.
mike, don't take this the wrong way, but that is the shittest driving anecdote I have ever heard.

If 'nodder' is used to mean 'anyone who doesn't ride fixed' then it's snobby and unhelpful.
But if 'nodder' means someone who rides carelessly and slowly (and looks like a twat to boot in head-to-toe fluoro and lights, and rides a shit bike) then surely that's a term of abuse all cyclists can use, whether they ride fixed or no???

cliveo dare I say it but are you not being too much of a lawyer about this? If someone on the forum sold 200 shirts for £20 each featuring a design similar to My Little Pony, the worst that would happen is that Hasbro's corporate lawyer-bots would issue a cease-and-desist letter for passing off. By which time everyone who wanted a shirt would have one. Their damages - if they wanted to push it that far - would presumably only be the price of the shirts ie £4000 ie about four hours of over-priced attorney time. Not much of a risk surely? Making a My Little Pony do something disgusting, or positioning it next to some swear-words might raise their ire a bit more though...
