Is it OK to notice what other cyclists are wearing?

Had a lovely cycle in this morning along the Regent's Canal in the sun. I was struck by how co-ordinated this cyclist was - she had a suede coat with a furry trim, a fancy looking leather saddle - and the thing that really caught my attention - a matching handbag on her left handle-bar, apparently co-ordinated to go with the saddle! Now that's what I call class. If you're the person who was riding, I hope you don't mind being snapped like this, but I thought it was damn stylish and others should learn!

The Cycle of Karma

When you're cycling around 100 miles a week through London, you develop some strange notions. The one I can't get out of my head is that you build up karma - good and bad - depending on how you cycle. So - if you stop at red lights, wait politely for pedestrians, smile at cars, you get rewarded - the next light turns green for you straight away, someone smiles back at you - you get the picture. Of course this doesn't always work, but it works often enough for me to try to cycle by those rules. Most of the time.
