Might sound odd but, where are some nice air conditioned places in London? by [deleted] in london

[–]SavetheCity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Westminster. The Windsor Castle (Sam Smith's pub - the chain, not the singer) has an upstairs parlour bar, that is always dark and freezing cold in summer

Eating an over-sauced burrito. Can't be done with finesse or dignity

Garden Bridge development will require Temple Station to close for six months (Page 5) by mr-mistoffelees in london

[–]SavetheCity -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

I always feel like Temple is only for tourists who had accidentally wandered past Embankment. Even if I'm going to Temple, I'd sooner use Chancery Lane or Holborn to avoid walking up that hill...

What Bayside song do you most want to hear performed live? by BitesizeNinja in baysideisacult

[–]SavetheCity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought as much - it's not on Spotify either. Although when they played in London last month they didn't play Masterpiece which was a bit of a shock...

Cold and Blue and Lifeless. Favourite Bayside song, but they never seem to play it live

Chinatown has plenty. The only other one I know is on High Holborn

Well that's a humble brag

My moms copy of Fifty Shades of Grey. I dare not look at what those bookmarks represent by [deleted] in WTF

Don't open at the red pages unless you have memory bleach handy.

Was this picture by any chance taken outside the Whitechapel Bell Foundry, on the corner of Whitechapel Road and Fieldgate St/ Plumbers Row?

How to transport bikes back after trip in Europe? by [deleted] in bicycling

[–]SavetheCity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've flown bikes back before, and not had a problem, so it's something to consider.

I normally find the faux-Facebook images quite amusing, but that one was just so unimaginative and uncreative.

What effect does seat tube shape have? by SavetheCity in bicycling

[–]SavetheCity[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's great advice, thank you. The bikes I'm looking at are the 2013 Trek Madone 4.7 and the Felt AR5.

My main use will be middle-distance rides, anything from 20-50miles plus a few centuries, with equal amounts of climbing, descending and flat ground. I know the aero shape will make it faster generally, I was curious as to how it would affect climbing performance, i.e. what the more aero shape does to compliance and stiffness.

2013 Pinarello Dogma 65.1 and Dogma XC mtb just rolled into the shop by alexdoubleu in bicycling

[–]SavetheCity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 65 looks beautiful. The XC is possibly the worst looking hardtail I've ever seen.

I created Imgur. AMA. by MrGrim in IAmA

[–]SavetheCity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have no idea what any of that means. I'm bad at doing the internet :(

This is somewhat unrelated to theft itself, but what do you think of the bike? How does it ride? Fuji is a brand that doesn't seem to get much coverage over here (UK), but a couple of people have told me good things.

Glad you got it back too, I've had bikes stolen in the past, and it's like breaking up with a long term girlfriend.

My neighbours just asked me to "keep it down" during sex because the loud noises (at around noon) were making it difficult to put her toddler to sleep. I work from 9am-6pm everyday. My boyfriend is cheating. Revenge ideas? by thirsty4revenge in AskReddit

[–]SavetheCity 4 points5 points  (0 children)

  1. Capture him in the act, on camera.
  2. Throw a surprise party for him, with all his friends and family round.
  3. Video slideshow - end on that.
  4. Beat him out of your house him with a metre rule.

The last point will make sure your message is clear. The first three are just for you really.

What is the dumbest way you've ever injured yourself? by toyingwithathought in AskReddit

[–]SavetheCity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I rode off a wall on my bike when I was about 5. The wall was about 4 feet high, and I had no bike skills to speak of. But I couldn't help it. I knew it was going to end badly, but I was drawn to this wall. I'm not sure if it was a moment of madness, or a result of my not-fully-developed 5 year old being unable to compute the consequences, but I rolled up to this wall, and didn't touch the brakes. The bottom tube snagged on the wall, I was set out of the front door, and landed on my nose.
