A few from this mornings ride around London. Colour matching bike to graffiti...
I might live in the city but can still find mountainous scenes as a backdrop for bike pics.
Finding a quiet spot out of sight of the cameras in Camden Market
And my old steel Merckx got some glances on the way through long time legal graffiti spot in Waterloo's Leake Street tunnel.

On a local multi-use path. Just to the left was some that the moderators would have deleted my post for.

I apologize in advance if this is some sort of urban profanity.

The kind of "edgy" graffiti when you live in a small, agricultural-based Canadian town

And a few more from this morning to brighten my ride in London's autumnal drizzle. On my 753 Merckx today.

For those inclined, check out Style Wars (1983)- excellent time capsule doc about NYC graffiti and hiphop.

@botty kayer the tourism bureau for the City of London should put you on the payroll. Someday I'm going to visit London just to see all of the fabulous graffiti you've posted over the years!

thanks Brent, I wish I was on the tourist board payroll for doing what I do anyway. As we go into the autumn and winter months here in London I'm even more grateful to have drab walls enriched with colour to help get us through till Spring.And if you ever do make it over here, let me know and I'll happily supply you with a list of spots to go searching, or if you give me some notice and I'm in town myself at the time, I'll gladly take you on a cycle tour of all the best graffiti spots in London.
