Hello London Commuters
 
Looks like I will be joining those who cross London each and every day.

Any tips on the North Circular and Hanger Lane - prospect scares me a little but is far better than the car alternative!

Would someone like to move this into Biking Issues. I think it's more suited there.

Just imagine a Mad Max scenario and you'll be very close. They really are out to get you, so take enormous care (and then some).

I think Dan is more than a little familiar with the tarmac around there :cry:

Take it easy until you get used to it, especially in the wet :D
Lookout for the speed cameras as well

Or maybe Soho Massive ?

Idle banter seems to be turning more into a London section every day :roll:

Is that still fun?, I used to drive round there back in the 80s when I had an office in Chiswick

used to do it from Ealing (Hanwell) to Loughton Essex, right round the 406 to the m11 and back again...

Can be pretty ****ty but there is some benefit in practising close control etc.. If I can do it anyone can
