London Cycle Diaries: Truman's Ales and Stouts

London Cycle Diaries is both a cycle-based and cycle-orientated series aimed at "discovering" hidden spots in London from the saddle of my Raleigh.

  1. I love your header and I enjoyed the video! I love old places and that image in the video is fantastic. 350 years old? Oh, yes!

  5. Okay, that settles it, I just finished dinner and was thinking about riding my bicycle down to the marina to watch the sunset.... I'll now bring a beer along!

  6. My "hobby" throughout my adult years has been to examine bars/saloons/nightclubs from within, rather than from without .... unfortunately, in a way, I think it is time for me to devise a new hobby.

    Excellent photograph and superb commentary, CiL. Keep it up, man ....

  7. Brilliant idea. I enjoyed that and intend to listen to some of the others. What a change from reading blogs.

  8. London: history in every corner.
    Even though I, linguistically challenged, prefer reading to listening,
    I must say your "audio diary" is very interesting and elegant. :)

  13. How wonderful to hear your voice! Sometimes I think I disembody words from the man or woman who has written them - so this feels like a gift.

  15. Fabulous! Cycling opens eyes (and makes one thirsty).

  16. I love this! Your voice is terrific -- and the masthead picture is fabulous. My youngest son is riding his bicycle all the time, even here in crazy traffic-filled Los Angeles. I hold my breath but encourage him at the same time.

  17. Hi Mario - lovely to hear your voice again ... very soothing. The history of Truman's Brewery is fascinating too - no doubt an historical record of that part of London over 350 years from the time of the Great Fire. An excellent way of presenting your blog post/s ... cheers Hilary
