It does exist Louisa but not in ED. It's fancy schmancy smelly stuff and linen. There's one in Covent Garden and, erm, other places. White Stuff is all clothes (and not very good ones.)

The problem is that the 17% (or whatever the true figure is now) are cocking things up massively for those cyclists that are sensible. Every day I see cyclists jumping lights and I think that is too often. That said, there seem to be a large number of HGV drivers, bus drivers, taxi drivers and motorists in general who make it their mission to make life difficult for cyclists. We need better infrastructure and much tougher penalties for motorists AND cyclists when they break the rules. Catching them is the problem.
I agree davidk. There needs to be a radical rethink of cycle lanes and an examination of the systems in places like the Netherlands. At the moment the combination of ignorance and arrogance of both motorists and cyclists makes these accidents inevitable. The amount of poor judgement/downright stupidity I see daily on the part of huge numbers of cyclists and a fair few motorists is undoubtedly responsible for the pointless "us and them" attitude that is exacerbating the problem. Motorists deliberately playing chicken and cyclists jumping lights, cycling on pavements and undertaking are things I see several times on a daily basis. It makes me angry and I rarely cycle or drive in London, so no wonder there is so much rage among those who do. Something has to change.

I almost want to remain in their > way so they can't get off! As e-dealer says, it's partly a safety issue. Also, if the train's that packed you can't get to the doors until people start to get off, so you'd cause more difficulty getting up early than you would if you wait for the train to stop, especially as at least 50% of the fools on any given train have no spatial awareness and don't know how to get out of the way.

I second the barber mentioned above (Jazz Barbers), Callow, Rullier White, also House of Tippler, ToastED, the DIY shop , Franklins. Big no to Luca's (they've used up several chances at proving me wrong) and the establishment that can not be named.
