Feb 9: Boris Bikes!
Nothing deep today. Just me sharing my love of cycling anything and everything. That includes the Barclays Bike Hire Scheme or 'Boris Bikes' as I refer to them. They are heavy, highly geared, slow, not that comfortable to ride, but I love them. They are cheap, convenient, good exercise, and a handy way to get around. How cool is that?

Day 3: Super Cycle Highways
Here is something I stand for. Love him or hate him, Boris (or his team) have implemented the most slickest, cycle friendly bit of road I've ever ridden. They dug it out, re-surfaced it, and then painted it with a slippery blue paint which is treacherous in the rain.
The result has been amazing. Every day, even in the sub-zero temperatures we are seeing at the moment, there are literally hundreds of cyclists on the blue road outside my workplace. Its a shame I've moved within spitting distance of work because now I only get to cycle it when I borrow Boris' Bikes.
The cycle revolution is here!
