Bloody cyclists now arming themselves

 

[addictfreak]

Think I'd be more concerned about the two Police Officers, than how i'd get home!

 

[hackbike 666]

How about diverting?

On my weekend commutes i've had half of London closed off.TIA.

 

[Will1985]

At least they didn't use cyclist in the headline for once.... although we don't know what other media outlets will do.

 

[Jake]

Fukkin ell!

Thank God I live in the wild wilderness of the Arctic wastelands!

 

[Jake]

Thanks. will stay at work then lol. Should be able to get over the bridge ok and then do a bit of zig zgging. Should be fine thanks. Not sure how long it will be closed off for, cars and taxi's will be going mad like wasps do when annoyed. Just have to keep wits about you a bit more.

 

[tdr1nka]

Yeah, it's not all road works, potholes and impatient motons you know!

 

[Tynan]

read it and I think it's clear that neither was shot

 

[tdr1nka]

So do you come east along the south of the river Jake?

 

[Jake]

I shoot down from Angel, down smithfield market, zoom down the hill to that crossroads by Evans. The zoom over to teh north side of Blackfriers bridge. (I say zoom, but that road from the market down to the bridge is the worst in london. God knows how the poor bike isnt shattered to pieces by the time i get to the bridge.) Over bridge and either straight on to The Cut, or right. Zap along there to the iMax, left through waterloo. Dam that road sucks big time too! Anyone got any spare tarmac? Then right at the lights to lambeth? shoot at Mach 2 through kennington, stoping at crossroads before racing all the way down to the other lights by the hardware shop. Zoom up to the park and hang a right. Mind the holes upto the church, then zcross and head all the way home to brixton.

Had some nice duels on the kennington bit. Nice white fixie last night with london written on it. He was pretty fast and i was shattered. Then there was this stupid girl on a fixie lol, her legs were going so fast, and she wasnt going anywhere. She still tried to overtake. Had to say NO FIXIE! you wont get past me! (in harry enfield charector voice). Usual a headwind along there, but can work well and have a real nice ride. Overtaking mopeds last night

how about you?
