Competitors in the Port of London Challenge assembled near the National Theatre on Thursday evening to set off on a 4.4 mile race up the Thames.
Southwark Council has admitted that it does not have the power to impose a 20 mph speed limit on cyclists in the borough.
Police have warned local businesses to be vigilant after a spate of thefts of Apple Mac computers from local ground-floor offices and creative studios.
Around 60 people joined a protest outside a Government minister's home in Westminster Bridge Road on Thursday night as his former domestic cleaner faces deportation.
Bankside may have a long history as a place of entertainment beyond the regulation of the city authorities but buskers and street performers could soon be subject to a new licensing regime.
Thursday recap: Bankside busking ban + Mac thieves on Mopeds + #IsabellaAcevedo london-se1.co.uk/date/2014-07-24
