Today, London was crippled yet again but a bloody tube strike. Last time this happened it was back in February and it was cold and damp. This time the temperatures were up, the sun was out and from what I saw, many bikers took the opportunity of riding into work. I saw the usual mix of scooters and hacks, but also a lovely Honda CB1300, a few Triumph Tigers, a Harley Davidson 1200 Sportster and a Ducati 1098s....okay that last one I saw in a big shop window as I rode past, but I did see it.
Hopefully people will see the real benefit of riding to work instead of relying on the tube, the bus or their cars. With a motorbike, you get your own seat, you're not a slave to trade unions or other people poor driving abilities and if you approach it with the right mindset, its incredible enjoyable and rewarding. The fact you'll look cool, is also not a bad thing.
