  • How come you don't take Borough High Street north from Elephant, direct to Broadgate?

  • @nativenewlondoner It would certainly be a shorter distance. I tried it a few times and found Borough High Street very slow going. The junctions at both ends of London bridge aren't great either. I found it was quicker to use Blackfriers bridge, as well as being more pleasant.

  • Do you work in 199 ?

  • @mrcellophane99 Close by in 155

  • Nice vid. What camera do you use and how do you mount it to your helmet?

  • @mirabilo It's a Muvi Micro which is small and light so you don't notice it's there. I use the helmet mounting they also sell with some extra rubber bands to keep it from wobbling about.

  • The sound of the mopeds taking off at the lights was hilarious!

    This makes my commute seem a doddle in terms of traffic I have to deal with!

  • A few things needed when cycling in London:

    1- nerves of steel

    2- high level of skill, road awareness and 100% focus

    3- helmet and preferably kevlar gloves and kevlar knee/elbow pads

  • @westcountrytim OIC - Thanks for sating my curiosity!
