Bonfire Night Thrills

Suddenly and almost as a surprise we’re into those blustery, dark and restless autumn rides home (the surprise was helped in many ways by me spending the last three days not leaving the flat). Nights like this feel dangerous as you don’t k now what’s going to happen, whether from the groups of kids roaming the streets or the blustery traffic pushing you around. Today this restlessness will be added to by the smell of smoke and gunpowder as we collectively look for an excuse to look at the sky and say oooh and aaaah. Having somewhat prematurely shot my bolt with the best fire and bike related story I’ve seen recently, you’ll have to settle for something tamer. Inevitably we’ll bring you a round up of all the firework stories we should have seen next week sometime.

So for now: Excitement! As TfL reveal their tips for keeping warm, dry and safe on the bike as winter sets in.

Thrills! As Lambeth council replace a sign with a more interesting one which also acts as a bike rack.

And, er, well that’s about it for now. Better then standing in the cold looking at thousands of pounds worth of explosions, right?
