Old: penis-shaped Fountain Green Square

New report from TfL highlights the 25 "corridors" they are thinking about developing to connect the outskirts to the centre.

The Cycle Network Model for London, known as Cynemon, is
a new, strategic transport model developed by TfL that
estimates cycling routes, journey times and flows at a
strategic level across London

Cynemon is based on a blend of data sources including
Census data, TfL cycle counts and surveys, and data from
Santander Cycles. It uses an algorithm to determine the likely
route of cycle trips along the networks of streets and urban
paths across Greater London, based on their origins and
destinations. This algorithm has been calibrated to reflect
actual route choice decisions made by people who cycle.

Will pop in to that event

New tag has a short life expectancy.

Friend of mine got his Hand built 1972 Raleigh Harry Quinn chromium plated road bike with yellow saddle and white handlebar tape nicked from around Finsbury Park last Thursday.

If you see it, put a lock on it and give me a shout... thanks

Pleasure seeing you. I don't know how to ask for a DAS anyway, so eh

Glad to hear I'm not the only one burping that oat stuff. Kinda weird to down one on an empty belly, as well. That said, placebo effect or not: energy boost is welcome in the morning.

Tempted, I'm a maybe too. @cgg?

@Oliver Schick coming down somewhere around De Beauvoir on Thursday. Didn't DAS

Oh dear. @cgg and I went all the way to the Far East in search of the tag. And we didn't find it. It was Bazalgette material, though...

The pitch in the foreground isn't actually Bunhill yet, it's a private estate it seems. Both the Field and the Burial Ground are not visible, and there's a couple hundred meters between them and the tag.

I vote no double tag from @cjr

The new one will be devilishly hard to locate in the absence of any significant landmarks. :)

It's about the journey there isn't it ;)

Old: view over Bunhill Fields. Old Street in the distance.

New: twin star

bump for interest

tumbleweed

tis @cgg

I'm looking for a smaller lock to fit in my pocket, ideally a trade against a standard-sized one + could throw in some monies.

Thanks!

Dat yours?

Might be one of the Flask joiners

@cgg you bringing your radio?

For sale: This superb condition Poker 3, QWERTY layout but can be remapped to whatever you fancy.

It is the blue cherry switches version, which means click action and sound. This thing is the sturdiest thing, surely it could be used as flak jacket.

Comes with box and USB cable, obviously.

And more pictures here

Yours for £80 ono, collection from London Bridge during office hours if possible.

Well, we think we narrowed it down to a couple of locations.

But again, we could be very very wrong.

Oh man, was en route to your previous.

A clue to make it up, perhaps?

Well played, @cgg.

The building in question is Labyrinth Tower, in Dalston.

A whole chapter of Hackney: That rose-red Empire, by Iain Sinclair, is dedicated to this place. He interviews Anya, an architect, who recounts the golden nights of Labyrinth Club, a mythical rave place - on which this sad tower was built.

More about Labyrinth on Vice

On the site of The Four Aces now stands a property complex of 550 luxury apartments. One of these towers has been christened Labyrinth Tower, alongside its neighbours Dunbar Tower, Marley House and Wonder House. When asked how Newton Dunbar feels about having a luxury tower named after him, he responds unperturbed: “They called it Dunbar Tower without consulting me. I do not know if they were taking the mickey, or if they had some other more sinister intention. It’s certainly no compensation for the building which was taken from me.” According to Newton, “the demolition of The Four Aces laid down the roots for the subsequent gentrification of Dalston.”

PS: nice tag, @cgg. Might come retake it this afternoon.
