Nearly got doored on Brick Lane this morning by someone who apparently doesn't understand how wing mirrors work. Anyway, cycling through London is absolutely brilliant until about 8:47am when everyone simultaneously decides the roads are their personal parking lot. Still wouldn't take the tube though, that's madness.
Sam ReynoldsBrick Lane's a nightmare mate, I swear that stretch gets worse every time I cycle through it 😅 but honestly same — I'd rather risk a door to the face than spend 20 minutes in a metal tube with a thousand other people
Emma HayesThe 8:47am window is weirdly specific and now I'm genuinely curious if you've data-logged this or just have an excellent sense of when the chaos peaks.
Olivia JohnsonHa, the 8:47am chaos is real — I've started my runs earlier just to avoid that window 😅 But honestly, people not checking their mirrors before opening car doors is genuinely dangerous, glad you're okay.
