Arriva Fare Evasion
Hi all, Looking for a bit of help & advice to do with alledged fare evasion on the Arriva network. My friend was certainly not trying to be a money saver with this one although they seem to think so!

Create Bicycles
Does anyone have any experience with this manufacter/brand? I'll admit that I was seduced by how they look but as there isn't a stockist nearby, I'm unable to try one, but if they're worth it, I'll make the journey to London to try one out. I've seen mixed reviews on the Internet but it's a nightmare trying to find a…

2 similar bikes, so what makes them hybrid and mountain?
I've spurned mountain bikes before simply because someone I thought knowledgeable told me they were heavy, much slower and less reliable. I've come across these two (both with a string of good reviews on Halford's website):…

Why does East Coast show fares that you can't buy?
When I go search train journeys it often comes up with prices that you simply cannot buy. None of them show up as available for journeys. Is this actually allowed? Is there a reason as to why its done? In the example below under single journeys you can see a fare from £10.85 to £133.75. Yet there is no fare at either…

Comprehensive bicycle insurance - is it worth it?
I am going to start cycling to work (in London) and am thinking about getting bicycle insurance. Do any cyclists out there think that comprehensive bicycle insurance that includes personal accident cover is worth it, or do most people just stick to accident & theft, or just not bother at all? If anyone does have insurance,…

Why is this aluminium bike 2kg more than the non-Au?
The DBR has an 18.5 inch aluminium compact frame and weighs 16kg: http://direct.asda.com/DBR-Pursuit-Road-Bike---28-inch-Wheels/000946061,default,pd.html?cgid=80122#descriptionsContent This reflex would surely state it was Au if it was, yet it only weighs 14kg (despite a larger frame and more gears):…

Anyone used Left Luggage at Victoria Coach Station recently?
Am planning to travel into/out of London by coach specifically because of the left luggage facility where I'll be able to leave a large case overnight. I've read the details on the Coach Station/TFL site but wondered if anyone has recent experience of it e.g is it opened as advertised, is it likely to be full, etc etc?

My husband and I are visiting our son in London next weekend.

Here's the silly question. What do you do when you get on a…
