Boris spotted. I was crossing High Holborn at the junction with Southampton Row and Kingsway when I saw amongst the traffic a great mop of blond hair. Low and behold it was Boris Johnson on his bike. Unlike his boss I couldn't see the car behind with the clean pair of shoes. I am of the opinion that Clarkson should be put under house arrest on Sark where they have no cars and that everyone should be able to ride a bike without fear of imminant death which looks like the experience of a lot of cyclists

The vast majority though of London cyclists look quite fit so I am considering risking life and limb and joining this group of urban lemmings but Boris was looking rather porky. Although the chance of me turning into a blond tory like him are pretty small.  ¶ 4:00 pm
