Its been a pleasant long easter weekend, and here in London we have been blessed with an abundance of sunshine and unusually warm Spring weather.
Long weekend's and bank holiday weekend's seem to involve lots and lots of drinking but being not much of a big drinker myself its nice to find other way's to enjoy your free time. Albert has drawn me closer to the roots of my original love for the bicycle, just riding for the sake of riding your bicycle, no destination, time, just the sheer joy of riding. No need to strap on a helmet, don the high viz vest, just a spare inner tube, a portable pump, a multi-tool and some tyre levers, simple!
Albert's seems to be happy with short to medium trips, anything longer than 10 mile trips and he starts to make peculiar noises. With the help of some lighter alloy rims for bmx bicycles he wont be complaining.
Im planning a ride through London's canals and waterways this week, from the Limehouse basin all the way North and North-west to Little Venice via - Mile End, Victoria Park, Hackney, De Beauvoir Town, Angel, Camden and then through Regents Park through to Little Venice. Anyone care to join me?
