The London Skyride

St Paul's Cathedral

Northumberland Avenue


It was a really wonderful day at the London Skyride - over 65,000 cyclists of all ages and everyone with a smile on their face, we had exceptional weather and I even found the lovely people from London Cycle Chic at the end of the day, having missed our rendezvous. I have never experienced a bike jam of its kind before!

The IDEALE saddle

I found this beautiful old French Ideale saddle at a market - it is a very beautiful object but rather uncomfortable. It takes a while to get used to a new saddle so I think I will stick with my lovely Brookes saddle for this Sunday's London Skyride. I am meeting a group of lovely lasses and lads from London Cycle Chic dressed in all sorts of non-lycra finery :) You can read more about the event on their blog.
