Last few hours before lockdown in London - pics

[Chicken_Satay]

Last night of 'freedom'. I figured it could be a while before I see some of these sights again so I thought I'd pop out for a ride to take a few souvenir photos. I've never seen central London so empty. Incredible!

Good pictures. That's wierd that.

What brilliant pictures - thanks for sharing. I hate myself for saying this but you're a legend for that!

[black-k1]

Great pictures!


It shows how frightened people really are. You parked there long enough to take the pics, without any additional locks and chains, and the bike wasn't stolen. The thieving scum must really be scared!

Will insurance in London drop in price now?

The risk of getting a bike stolen is still more or less the same I think. I don't think insurance prices will be going down any time soon.

Some great pics there, fascinating

In the last pic I feel for what is, presumably, the homeless guy. The whole city is in lock-down, told to stay home, but he can't. More isolated than ever I'd imagine.

Nice pics, hopefully you won't be receiving any parking tickets through the post...

Pretty sure that's the OP you're talking about.

Yes, a valid point!

I remembered suddenly:

Living and dying
In Chinatown
Yes they're living and dying down in old Chinatown
In Chinatown
You better look around
Man, you don't stand a chance if you go down in Chinatown

Seems the Virus means some prisoners will be released from prison early.

There's no need for a Jailbreak.

Great pics. Really brings it home.

I flicked through thinking it was some Italian exotica.

But hey, it's a Honda VFR. Looks great!

I didn't realise they still made them.

Haha, surprisingly some people said that about my previous (older model) VFR too. Must just be because they're both red...
