Pretty interesting.

Native Americans are guilty

Obviously it's a nice piece to have, so you want it to look good, but I don't get what the added value of going to a specialist is - might be worth getting a quote from the regular framers first.

I don't know if you need anything special for a jersey - there's a framing shop in temple fortune that'll do pretty much anything - and I'm sure a quick google will show you a place near you if that isn't any use.

Well, not often, but I was in a Waitrose. Maybe not a hotbed of bike thievery. Not that anyone noticed, but I reckon cycling off on a fixed gear with spd pedals is probably quite tough as well.

no excuses though, it was retarded.

I have to call myself out for this - went to the shops, left the bike like this outside finchley road station. Not entirely sure what I was thinking about at the time, but I'm lucky to have got away with it...

I saw the black logo, thought it had to be in reference to one of the five... can't believe someone else has lost their life.

RIP Rider, I can only hope that this awful couple of weeks leads to some positive change.

you kids work nearby? i'm very close. i'm on a bare steel bob jackson, carbon fork, bullhorns. often in a forum cap and dorky fluoro nodder jacket. gimme a shout if you see me.

I work in south bank or from home on a Friday (usually) and then just go for drinks in and around the area. I'll definitely keep my eyes peeled next time though!

To the lovely bloke who lent me his krypto in burger and cocktail while we were both on foot -hello! Would have loved to see your colnago. Next time eh?

Yeah, I didn't finish until half seven. Had to do a report on what I achieved this year. 2000 words of lies really takes it out of you. Hope it was a good I've

jesus, I hate working late on a Friday, hope you guys are still there - should be there by 7ish.

I vote feathers - they have blue moon on tap I think - I'll come to wherever.

I was upstairs at the Prince of Wales feathers a couple of weeks ago, pretty nice place.

Tells me enough. It's all about the material, it's what what makes Torm jerseys so awesome, despite the small pockets

Nothing delivers so much for the cash as Torm. Honest injun

Absolutely - I bought their jersey recently, have just ordered a new base layer and additional jersey. great material, good cut too.

better than red bull

Earl Grey is a wonderful tea, second only to darjeeling in its ability to be drunk black with a slice of lemon. What more could you want?

Now, Camomile... there's a tea that tastes like soap.

So I've now had replies from TFL, Roadsafe, and the company concerned. I was impressed by the first two but the one from Seales Haulage seemed to be suggesting that the driver couldn't have been at fault because (and this is a direct quote):

"We was asked by a cyclist if he could interview and video one of our drivers and on a normal day around London to get the drivers perspective, and see how dangerously cyclist drive and the situations that they get in"

Ah, they must have got that cyclist who we all elected to speak on our behalf. If the prime cyclist said the van driver was in the clear, it's definitely your fault.

I just saw the link through to here - I voted that I wasn't bothered, but I suppose I wouldn't say anything on here that I wouldn't say in an equivalent offline environment. That said, I'm against forcing anyone to use their real name. this community, (like most that aren't so large that they lose their sense of community) is capable of enforcing its own norms and values upon its members well enough without forcing people to reveal who they actually are.

I've given them my email address so I get notified - I was going to try and grab a merino top, as although the Rapha one is amazing, 60 quid for a t-shirt is a bit much to spend each time. Are Aldi's really that bad?

I suppose it's crowd funded, rather than a small number of investors, which I imagine means the founders retain more control over the brand, direction and ethos of the company

RIP Francis

it's only monday.. which is probably why I'm so keen to be thinking about Friday drinks - should be around.

really could have used a point from the game at old trafford - if we had someone slightly less shit than Bendtner, we might have even got it.

Now we have to wait two weeks for proper football to come back while we put up with a bunch of nothing games. At least i can do something with my free time.Think I'll actually play football on Saturday instead.

What about dark coloured vehicles (black being one of the highest sales in the UK), do we ask them to put reflectives strips all over them, what about pedestrians, people with push chairs, old folk crossing the road?..that's right it is BS
Haha..that's not a rant...lol

Dark coloured vehicles still have high powered lights front and back...

and I for one fully approve of mandatory hi-vis reflective strips on all people who reach retirement age. I'd go to bingo with a torch just for jokes.

um, on topic - I don't wear a helmet either.

The free tickets... they have a 1.75 booking fee...
