There is nothing that i can tell in the way of cyclists out here :p . I mewan ziclh. i've seen maybe 3 or 4 cyclists and never more thenone at a time. I've been meaning to godown to the bikeshop on Cherry lane and see if there are any group rides but tbh cycling groups really are not "my people". I just end up hanging in the back with next to nothing to say.

Ummm - have you ever lived in a city with 2+ million people living and probably another 1/4 of a million driving through?
2 Million people is alotttttttttttt of people :)

luckily no - although london's population is pretty transient at the best of times - especially with house prices so high that the average new mortgage buyer is 40+

Anyway, the quiet guy at the back who stomps everyone is always welcome on group rides in London at least
