Lest we forget

Sometimes as a blogger the well is dry and sometimes one's cup runneth over.

Today is a case of the latter with 3 things that I could wax lyrical about - the World Championships (chapeau Thor - as your speed has diminished your guile has increased), The Ride of the Falling Leaves (yes, I made it through the rain) and the Herne Hill cycle jumble.

Whilst I will return to the ROTFL later on this week (hopefully) I thought today's post had to be dedicated to the cycle jumble. I love it, a true haven for the geek, loner and occasional loon (I guess I must fall into one of the categories as I always go to them when they are on). However, sometimes in life you come across a loon so magnifique that you simply have to stand aghast at his sheer balls out, fuck you lunacy. So, behold the below (it was that good that I didn't want to show you at the start of the post which makes this somewhat unique in the history of this blog)



In case you can't quite read it (or believe your eyes) it simply reads -

'Dura Ace but Pearl Harbour must never be forgotten'

I feel I risked my life to take that picture (or at least my beloved does) but sure you will agree that this is the non plus ultra of cycling loons.
