wannars125 Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 I know a post has already been put up for this in the bike chat forum but wanted to see if anyone else would be up for joining me.http://www.themotorbikeforum.com/viewto ... b4#p391523Basically Westminster council are introducing parking fees for bikes and the thought is that other london boroughs are looking at doing the same. I've just started commuting into London and it saves me considerable money being able to use my bike. Losing this priviledge would cost me around 1k a year so I'll be going down to show my disgust at the thought of the fees being brought in elsewhere.I work by St.Pauls so a 10min ride for me to Trafalgar Square. If you wanted to meet me I will be leaving Farringdon Road (between Fleet Street and the Holborn Viaduct) at 5:45pm. Would be great to see you if you could make it.The website for the get together is http://www.notobikeparkingfees.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MtotheJ Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 Don't want to make you even more p*ssed but it was absolutely awesome! There must have been not far off 1000 bikers! I was a bit late so only caught the second half of the ride to city hall but the atmosphere was amazing. Surrounded by bikes everywhere, everyone revving engines and honking. Some guy on a harley was next to me most of the way with the loudest exhaust EVER!! He was revving like crazy and i think ive gone partially deaf as a result!I took some pics and a vid toohttp://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j237/Gizmojunky/SDC11790.jpghttp://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j237/Gizmojunky/SDC11793.jpghttp://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j237/Gizmojunky/SDC11795.jpghttp://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j237/Gizmojunky/SDC11796.jpghttp://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j237/Gizmojunky/SDC11798.jpghttp://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j237/Gizmojunky/SDC11799.jpg"> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
