After two weeks staying in NotLondon: 1: You might as well try to pay with a dead trout than an Amex card 2: You order steak and the waitress asks if you want ketchup or mayonnaise 3: It takes 17 years for the 4 cars ahead of you to get onto the roundabout. This thread is only for the well...

Looking for fellow cyclechatters travel advice..... I'll be coming from London Heathrow to Russell Square -with the wife, 3 kids and baggage each. What's the best way to do this? As we have 5 people, I'm thinking a taxi might not be the worst idea? Anyone got an idea how much that would be...

I'm not a fan of segregation. I'm also not a fan of the slow removal of responsibility. I'm not a fan of attempts to remove all risk and the creation of bland, sterile environments. But....and it pains me to type this bit...the super highways in London are really rather good. Sure some of...

Hope this was no one on here. What stupidity. https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/3380338/dad-filmed-pushing-pram-girl-inside-cycling/

...pretend the sounds of high revving / accellerating motorbikes are in fact your legs making that sound as you set off from lights? Unintentionally I find it makes for quite a fast start!

Hi, I hope I am in the right place. A friend and I have decided to ride from London to Lands End raising money for Macmillan in memory of his late Father. I have already organised that our Civvies will be sent direct to the hotel. I was wondering if anyone had any reccomendations on any bags we...

If you lost a Lezyne light in RP this weekend, message me with a link to the model you lost, and rough time, date and location within the park where you think you lost it. It was lying on the road, but hadn't been run over yet, so it hadn't been there long. If the owner is identified, they can...

I'm after recommendations for quiet, largely traffic free, routes heading out of North London that would be suitable for introducing my girlfriend to weekend riding. All of the fun of being on two wheels, minus the fumes and traffic. A nice route out towards Chingford and Epping Forest would be...

I live in Warwick but often stay in London for work. I've just spotted that number 27 of the 100 Climbs is Swains Lane which is only 6-7 miles from where I stay. I quite fancy the idea of getting a Boris Bike one night and doing the climb. I know good routes from Gloucester Road to Regent's...

Knowing that some of you guys did it last year, I was wondering your thoughts on the Ride London 46? After having my 100 route cut short last year due to the big accident at Pyrford, I had unfinished business and entered the ballot again this year. Unfortunately I was unlucky. I have been...
