I have begun cycling my bike again after a loooong hiatus and the realisation that some parts of the body do not, alas, exercise themselves...
Very much enjoying myself but flabbergasted by the state of the roads - were there really this many potholes in the gutter a few years ago? (Drivers - if you are wondering why cyclists are positioned firmly in the centre of Kingsland Road, here's your answer).
Please buy your bikes from decent places, with a heart and a soul, and not from some shifty git in Brick Lane - if you buy a stolen bike, never let anyone hear you complain when someone pinches yours....
Meanwhile, read my friend Cally's account of cycling from Land's End to John O'Groats on a penny farthing last year - http://www.toetohead.com/
Safety first, by the by...x
