I am glad you enjoyed it.   I got the film from a friend in the USA. Every so often out of the blue an email arrives.                                                                                                                                                                              

It sems there are lots of these old films on Youtube.   Here is another from London in 1903.   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v-5Ts_i164c                                                                                                                                                                               

Where's the best place to park one's bike at the South Bank Centre please anyone?


                                                                                                                                                                             

Did you notice the clip by The Bank the only car drive far to close to the horses, even back in 1903 car drivers were crap                                                                                                                                                                             

For me it's to leave the bike in my garage and walk to the South Bank
    There is a bike bay in Chicheley Street by Belvedere Road.                                                                                                                                                                             

Oh lucky you, a walk away (not being sarcastic).
Thankyou sweetie.

                                                                                                                                                                             

recently collected a £500 pound fine from southwark bridge but the firm paid it .... yep i`m one of those guys who turns up in a big red artic at night to install very big black and yellow anti-terrorist gates in the westminster area prior to important parades and ceremonies....great fun getting around with a 55 foot transporter lol.....

                                                                                                                                                                             

£500
I didn't know they charged according to vehicle size wow!!!                                                                                                                                                                              

  You're an anarchist! Nellie                                                                                                                                                                              

They probably charge anarchists extra                                                                                                                                                                              

If that was true David i'll have no money at the end of the mouth.
Roll on payday.                                                                                                                                                                              

I'll 2nd that Chris                                                                                                                                                                              

Well people, at the week end, we managed to get two Londoners on a ride out. It was the Margate Meltdown arranged by the Ace Cafe. I rode with Miss Ordinary (first name Whats) from London to Nells cafe on the A2, where we met up with three others (not from London), then rode to Margate. The weather was Ace, because it was ordered in by the Cafe especially for the weekend. At Margate we met three other members and a good day was had by all .   Next time it would be good to double our London quota to four people. That would put us in serious contention with our northern friends, for arranging large events.     Why haven't we got a "tongue in cheek smiley" above?                                                                                                                                                                             

If i'm not working i'll be there.
                                                                                                                                                                             

That would be great Chris                                                                                                                                                                              

Despite being a Welsh-born northerner I feel quite comfortable in London, apart from the fact there's so blooming much of it!
But I promise that next time I'm down on the bike I'll try and hook up with any of the Londoners out to play                                                                                                                                                                             

It would be nice to see you again Wills. You are welcome to join us any time                                                                                                                                                                              

I'm curious as to what the £500 fine was for ?                                                                                                                                                                               

Oh, how do i miss this thread? :)

I was planning to join Margate ride but then a friend called and I found myself riding to Guildford for Surrey County Show :D so, I watched cows, horses and monster trucks 

Anyway, next time I can promise to add +1 to London quote if not double it :))

                                                                                                                                                                             

Nice one crato   It would be brilliant to meet up for some ride outs. We can use this thread as a link to the relevant forum. So check in from time to time and lets see what us Londoners can come up with. What part of London are you in. I am at Sydenham SE26.
