Bike Maintenance Videos

Great stuff found on YouTube- nice simple advice on maintaining your bike, what I've been looking for, for ages. Plus seeing it in moving pictures makes it nice and straightforward. It's made by Weldtite, so obviously promotes their products a bit, but the advice seems sound.

Looks like there's a whole series of them too

Sideways Bike

This is apparently is the "first major development in bicycle design for 150 years", although I have to say I'm not really sure in what way this "develops" bikes. Looks pretty lethal on the BBC news site, but almost ride-able on the inventors own site

Yellow Signs

Not wishing to make light of serious crimes, but my new ride to work features a more "interesting" standard of Police Notices. Not only is the above sign currently outside Jamm, but there's a sign at the bottom of my road about police finding a "live hand grenade".

It's like cycling through a frontier town

Cycling In The Snow

Today's valuable lesson, the London roads you normally love to cycle on (back streets, quiet) in the snow are the very ones that are uncleared and full of iced up speed-bumps, whereas the one you normally avoid (main roads, full-of-traffic) are pretty empty and are cleared of snow.
