Oh how awesome this would be

SkyCycle, proposed by Foster + Partners, along with landscape architects Exterior Architecture and transport consultant Space Syntax, envisions a network of elevated bike paths free of cars.
The wide, secure deck would span more than 130 miles and be suspended above London's existing suburban rail network with over 200 access points. The network would be built to accommodate more than 12,000 cyclists per hour, the designers say. The project already has the backing of the Network Rail and Transport for London.

It'll be fine, there won't be any spiders up there.....

A Londoner commuting on the route of death (12 in 12 months last year or something similar) I'm all for it even though I'll be long gone by the time it ever comes to fruition (never)

After doing duathlons for the last couple of years, I decided to go for a triathlon. Starting with an Olympic-distance race perhaps wasn't wise, but it was fun (of a sort).

There was a long run from the water to the transition area at the London Tri but I quickly found my bike and headed out onto the road.

After a nice party the day before, the five of us met at the docks in the morning - all ready to suffer in the famous English sun with our fellow competitors.
