My husband put his bike into Halfords at Feltham (after trying other stores who refused to take it because they were just too busy!) It took them a mon...

Can anybody tell me why the police/council don’t seem to be in
the least bit interested in trying to stop the illegal and
extremely blatant trade of stolen bikes at Brick Lane market?
Not only does it piss me off that I can’t feel confident in
leaving my bike locked up round there any more – its pu...

Does anyone know a good place to pick up a cheap secondhand bike,
given that my conscience won’t allow me to head for Brick Lane?

Just wondering where people suggest I look for a bike – have already tried a few stores in and around the City where I work and was completely ignored, and vowed never to return to either chain – but I still need one so I can get into cycling to work and on weekends.
I admit I am a 20-something female...

Recent TFL figures show a 91% increase in the number of people cycling on London’s major roads since 2000. Sounds impressive, until you realise that cycling’s overall ‘share of journeys’ compared to walking, car, motorbike, tax, bus and rail across Greater London is less than 2%. Our affable and shambolic mayor recently expressed a desire to go beyond TFL’s 2025 target of 5%. Why so? Well, it’s estimated that another 800,000 more souls and 400,000 more cars will be added to this fair city by 2025, placing further strain on our infrastructure.

Anyone got any suggestions for some good biking roads? I’ve done all the usual routes around Surrey and Kent (Box Hill and the like).
