As from Monday, I'm commuting to Colindale (on the edgeware road), there seems to be quite a few options open to me. No idea which is the best/worst option for avoiding traffic or at least dodgy traffic areas?

Tw@

I hate the tube, and it won't get me fit and the women in my office won't get to see me in Lycra. So that's at least 3 negatives to it

How about getting off your lardy assos and checking out the options at the weekend? Wink

Moving to a new flat (Camden has lost it;s appeal now Amy doesn't live next door to me!), I'm guessing that if I tell Mel that I am off out on my bike, the issue will become somewhat irrelevant!!! Laughing Laughing

Colindale can be a nightmare even for drivers.

You seem to have omitted one vital piece of information, i.e. from where you are commuting, F'FS!

And it's Edgware Rd, not edgeware, nor is it Londen, F'FS!

I recommend a good Chablis Wink

Be kind to the poor lad, he's not a native Londoner, so bound to make mistakes.

Edgware Rd is DEATH ON A STICK

I ride up through Abbey Rd, West Hampsted when I go up there these days
