The London cycle superhighways are surfaced with a lurid blue tarmac

Riding along on the tandem with my son recently, he mentioned casually, I just saw a £20 note. He didn't sound very excited about it so I thought for a second, then decided not to leave it to chance: sure enough there it was !

So being on a tandem that'll be £10 each then

Earlier this summer, while we were out on the tandem, Mrs eck espied a red Speciaized BG track mitt, RH only. So, if anyone finds a LH one, I'm sure we could come to some arrangement. $:-\$

I dont know how they manage to get home, this was miles from any where! any body want it, its 170mm good pedal. (see free stuff)

Fell off the bike on the back of a car, presumably.

It's Wigan football rattle. You hold the pedal and swing the crank. You get the same wrist exercise as a normal rattle but without waking the team up.
