A warning to anyone stopping in Whitechapel

Ever since Tower Hamlets Wheelers closed their community workshop on Three Colt Street, Bengali kids on wrecked bikes have taken to waylaying passing commuters.

Five minutes after you went into the workshop, there would be a knock on the door, and there would be Akbar on his BSO which he expected you to fix for him. My response was usually "No, I'll help you fix it", which would make about 60% clear off.

The only time to get any work done on your own bike was early in the morning.
