I'm at uni, in London, Kensington, but home is either Bristol or West Lancs depending on when you ask me.

Definately a road bike (an ancient raleigh) for London, but tend to stick to my early 90's style mountain bike (ie no suspension) for everywhere else when I can, don't like dragging the road bike up hills/along non-surfaced cycle paths (although I have done it in the past)

I was wondering if any of the BF members from the UK could tell me if Pearson Cycles ships to the US. I really like their new Pearson Touche' fixed cycle.

Just moved to Grove Park, SE London right next to Bromley, Kent. I ride to work (Mayfair, Central London) everyday. Usually do 70 mile rides once a month. Need information on good hills to ride within the M25 area.... And anyone who wants to come along would be welcome.

For MTBing in Brum you just need to go a few miles to the North and you'll find Cannock Chase, 8miles of offical single track, much more unofficial and a downhill area.

If you want more info PM or email me.

Hi there all,

I'm another UK cyclist who is looking forward to some great weather to get out and about on our
quiet country lanes. I live in Oxfordshire currently, but also cycle in Devon and in the North West.

Hello I live in London for 8 years now, although I am Spanish I think of myself as a Londoner. I live in Camden and I love it. I use my bicycle for any trip to the shops, seeing friends or commuting, I don't know what I will do without my bike. She is not the top range of bikes, I actually found her. Someone must have left her forgotten in the beer garden of the pub I was working for. The bike was left there without any means of security locks for 2 months before I decided to adopt her. Now, after 5 years, I sometimes think I should get a new bike but I am not sure I can!
Anyway! I need help from other cyclists. I am studying with the Open University a course called Innovation and I need to know what you think about safety riding on busy city roads. I will be posting questionnaires and research but in the mean time I would appreciate any comments on the subject.
Thank you all!!!!!

Well it can be pretty scary but i enjoy it, exactly for this reason, sorta like an extreme sport. When you post your stuff, PM me and I will be glad to help, I have a lot of views on the subject.
