The outfit is pretty much a 5 day uniform: grey jeans, grey hoodie and grey jacket. The shoes however are weekend shoes! TGIF

Sadly, I’m the Venetian Village Idiot. In fact today I’m riding around wearing heels, listening to Phantogram in my headphones, down one way streets in the wrong direction, while it’s raining without a helmet.  Not the most sensible… but F.O.B.!!! (Fashion Over Brains)

The Village Idiot is too cute for rules. She’s pretty, and useless. She’s from Venice.

“I read a study that measured the efficiency of locomotion for various species on the planet. The condor used the least energy to move a kilometer. Humans came in with a rather unimpressive showing about a third of the way down the list….That didn’t look so good, but then someone at Scientific American had the insight to test the efficiency of lomotion for a man on a bicycle and a man on a bicycle blew the condor away.

That’s what a computer is to me: the computer is the most remarkable tool that we’ve ever come up with. It’s the equivalent of a bicycle for our minds.”

Until October 29, the bike is available for guests of the W Hotel in Leicester Square to ride around the city.
