Booked with Southwark. Don't know what was wrong but anyway I already took the first free lesson and gonna take the second next week.

The instructor, who contacted me to arrange the lesson, says it's free. But even after that I got the confirmation email with a price of £82.25 to pay in next 24 hours.

Booked my FREE training, it didn't recognise my work address and a bill came: £82

Cheers, I'll have a look

It's Lewisham but more close to Bromley :-)

There is no need to be sorry and many thanks for useful advises.

No no, I don't think you are mean or rude, I clearly understand that all you say is for me not against and really appreciate it. I just fill a bit stupid because could avoid most of the incidents I had if I had more patience.
The only question I have now is where and how to get that CYCLING TRAINING

Ok people, now you made me think that I really need some cycling training. So gonna get soon

Thanks. I will

Thanks for the advice. I do need to train my writing but with cycling I'm not as bat as it looks. It's not the first month I cycle in London. Last year I had just 1 incident, a car hit me from the back in roundabout at elephant&castle. This month bet all the records

Never again:-)

one of them Iwas overtaking (#2) that's right it's not the most clever thing to do, but anyway it shows that lots of drivers don't check the left mirror and don't bother about signal when turn left.
(#4) I was undertaking but I was in a different lane with the var. So I can't say it's my fault.
The others one when the van turned right and cut me wasn't at junction it was a bus stop. Anyway agree with you in this case

I even have mudguards and put high visibility jacket on all the time, so yes you're right I'm not a fashion victim. I think what I need is passion :-)

Had 4 incidents in last month.

1. Was 100% my foult, was ridig between lanes in traffic, decided to turn right after a van and changed my mind on half way cause didn't have enough veiw of in coming traffic, braked but was late and hit the car in front.
   
2. Was waiting for the green light at junction, was 1 car in front, there was enough room between the car and the cerb. When it turned to green I move by the bap, was on half way to pass the car when it turned left without a signal, I hit his left door, he drove away. No damage no injury. The only thing I was thinking at the moment was rasing after and break his left mirror and the signal lights. But I didn't :-)
   
3. There was a bus in a bus stop and a van behind. I was pretty fast, decided to go between them and the in coming traffic. Took right well before to let the van driver see me. Was about to rich the van when it turnd right and turned the signal lights at the same time. I braked slide left then right, the car coming from the opposite direction braked hard in case the van kicks mo in front of him. I touch the van with my sholder but could keep on bike some how. The van drove away, I riched him at next junction, looked at him, no reaction. Realised that he didn't even notice me al this time.
   
4. There was a car behind a bus under red light in second lane, I was going by first lane when it changed to green and the car turned left and cut my way (no signal again). I braked and some how didn't hit him.
   So be careful people and be ready for all kind of unexpected moves from drivers.

Hi, got a single speed recently and love it so far. Commuting from south east to Waterloo about 10 miles 5 days a week. Would be nice to chat/meet/ride with other SS,FG riders

Love cycling!
