A bunch of us headed out for a loop of London on Christmas Day. Top idea from Object and a nice ride with quite a few more people than I expected joining in. Thanks for the pics Horatio. Merry xmas all!

I went for a short 'tweaking' ride on the Condor on Sunday before Mal and I ventured to Tower Bridge for fasteddy's xmas lunch (2am home, for LUNCH?! :)). Today was its proper debut as my new commuter. The bike really is nice! It's larger than...

Second time I've crashed on my own in a month. This slippery miserable shitty weather is not just annoying, now, it's dangerous! :) Of course, it was after the work xmas party and I was tanked but I'd ridden from the city to Ealing without iss...
