I went to the wetlands Centre in Barnes, London today with @vickster and friend. I'm pretty happy if a facility provides Sheffield stands in a well trafficked area, that they had lots of these cages, which looks pretty Secure and you could fasten with U lock or a padlock. Probably anything but...

I'm planning another ride this September, tentatively the 24th, though it could be a few weeks on either side. Frequently Anticipated Questions. Let me know if you may be interested.

City of London police have issued a picture of man they suspect of stealing an ambulance service bicycle while a paramedic was treating a patient. The theft occurred at about 14:40 BST on 23 June when the bicycle was outside offices near Fenchurch Street. The suspect is described as white with...

Hi guys I am in the last few stages in planning a ride to Rome from London. The route is a bit of a mare, does anyone have a GPX file OR can they recommend what scale MAP I'd need? I used a standard Collins MAP to do a LEJOG and I was hoping for something similar this time round. Thanks for...

i am going to try the London 100 on my single speed Pearson. Please give me some tips for such a long ride. I have never done 100 miles on a single speed bike. Gearing is standard 48 - 18, so i expect to walk up some of the bigger hills, but i will have a sensible cruising speed on the flatter...

I'm wanting to celebrate my birthday in July with a good steak and then on to a cocktail bar for a few after. I've looked online and like the look of http://thehawksmoor.com/locations/seven-dials/ And also http://www.jwsteakhouse.co.uk/mobile/home.html But I thought I'd ask the London massive...

...as soon as the flag goes down. Makes that trip down to Croydon a bit more worthwhile! See you there if you're going

We're off tonight, leaving dear old SW2 at two in the morning for the Newhaven Ferry, and then progressing via Normandy, Paris, Burgundy, the Alps, Turin and the Ligurian Coast to Pisa. We've set aside eleven days for the 850 miles, two days to recover and almost 24 hours for the return train...

Hi Guys, is anyone planning on going on the London to Southend British Heart Foundation charity ride Sunday 17 July? I plan on joining this, should be fun, I've never participated in anything like this so if anyone is up for tagging along together that would be great. Event title: British...

Oh dear, another female cyclist has died following a collision with a lorry. There's no good news here, but it's worth pointing out the number of deaths in Greater London has declined dramatically. I think this is the first death in the Greater London area for about 11 months, or it may be the...

As the internet is awash with free tickets and there's a www.vulpine.cc sample sale next door, is anyone attending this year? I've weighed up the options and will be heading there Saturday whilst the rest of the family are heading to the in-laws

I really do not know why so many people on here complain about London motorists. I have to say I have found they to be very helpful and chatty the last week. As I cycle between Stratford and Aldgate and then from Tower Hill to Parliament Square, I am amazed at the number that want to chat with...

Anyone on here planning on going to this next week? I would love to, but can't make it - fantastic, quality gear. I have an invite for the Thursday, so you could get the pick of the stuff. Would you be willing to buy me a couple of items and post on? - would give you £10 for your trouble...

So heading West along Mile End Road all the way from Stratford to Aldgatethere is the new segregated cycle superhighway. Then from Tower Hill to Parliament Square there is the segregated cycle superhighway. There appears to be no link between the 2 or was I mistaken to recall this was going to...

Spotted this on BBC http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-36247516 Quite a shocking piece of reporting!

This just came on my FB news feed. Tim Farr‎toHandcycling in the UK. Yesterday at 05:56 · London · Some B@$%&d broke in to my car at the early hours of this morning and stole my handbike. This is a specialist bit of equipment that is worth around £5000 It is a blue top end force RX. Whoever...

I'm off down to London on Sunday morning, along with a few others, to see my No 1 daughter, Lizzi, as she runs/ jogs/staggers past us on her very first Marathon. She entered independently and was fortunate enough to get a place this time. Our banner will be waving and we'll be cheering her (if...

Here is my story, it may help others who plan to do the same thing. Note that in the summer, Eurostar goes direct to the south of France from London (apparently). So, I wanted to go somewhere warm/hot over Easter. Thursday morning through to Tuesday night. Flights were expensive due to airlines...

Just looking for confirmation. The movie poster looks pretty convincing, and Morgan Freeman as positively stately as the Duke of Edinburgh. Looking ahead at the future of this movie franchise, which places would you like to see Fallen, or even Taken, on-screen.

2016 will see a proper re-run of a real Friday's classic: the London — Newhaven — Paris ride. Different to previous years, the ride will start on a Friday night rather than a Thursday. We'll leave Hyde Park Corner at midnight and ride through the night to Newhaven via the Gatwick Surprise...

Right I was challenged by my students to do this and i know there are two types of ride the 25 and then the 50 miles one. Both happen on the 20th of March but my question is... "How difficult is the challenge?" I enjoy cycling although never done more than 18 miles on go. Yes I know... blooming...

Hi all Bit of a cheeky request, but wondered from those more in the know, is there any indication which events Cav might be in, in the March championships? I'm assuming Omnium, but would he also do the team pursuit? Currently looking at remaining tickets for a couple of sessions, and as I have...
