The Captain does car signs too! (not always by accident either!)
This ones in Lincoln Inn Field... might take a while for him to get up North.
Why don't you make a start without him!!
Does this just make the sign permits only? |

ARE BIKERS TAKING THE PISS?
Is it Mickey Mouse or is it a RAT?
Either way it looks like it is pissing all over Westminster's stupid parking signs!
The latest 'Rathboning' by the Captain & his chums shows an altogether more figurative approach to sign decoration.
Does he have an agent... when can we expect an exhibition at the Tate?
Collect any you see now (they come off easily apparently)
They may be as valuable as an original Banksey soon!

 OMFG They are flipping awesome!! Kudos to whoever penned them! Will this lead to people taking down the signs just so they can display them ? (Probably not but it's a nice idea.)

I believe the new exhibition is here!  Drury Lane and Floral St have both been visited by the Captain overnight and it seems he has a message for all us bikers warning us that the charge will go up to £3.00! Lower signs have also disappeared - probably gone on a well earned break somewhere warm. Welcome back Captain  C.W. |

How do you know the charge will go up to £3 C.W.? Looks like the whole of Westminster is up for some redecorating again  Welcome back Captain Rathbone!  |

I suspect the lower signs.. 'sleep with the fishes'
the £3 warning is interesting though, once the elections are over, Westmonster will get busy ripping more money out of every sector possible. If their figures are to be believed they are making a loss so they will have to get a profit somehow.
I can hear them now ..."its only £3... not much in comparison to a car!"

As I returned to my bike tonight I couldn't help but notice a gentleman dressed in a black jacket & baseball cap with the WCC logo on it. He was taking a very keen interest in the Captain's latest piece of artwork. He was talking on the phone to someone and also taking notes, and then he took a couple of pictures of the Captain's work. I assume he works for WCC's Artistic department  and was calling Sotherby's to find out how valuable the piece might be. I suspect that WCC are hoping to acquire the complete set of the Captain's collection as these things are always worth more when you have all of the pieces. No doubt Sotherby's were advising him to take a couple of pics of the latest masterpiece in situ in order to prove it's authenticity when it eventually goes up for auction. I wouldn't be surprised if someone from WCC came and whisked it away before anyone else had a chance to think about it and put it with all the others they are stock-piling. The money raised from auctioning them off should more than cover any debts they currently have. C.W. |

The Captain should keep an eye out for narcs dressed in black jackets and baseball caps.
Thank you Catwoman.
