Hey peeps, not been on here for ages for a few reasons. Anyway, whilst convalescing from an op at the tail end of last year which prevented me from riding, amongst other things, I happened across the pursuit of urban exploration, namely exploring abandoned, derelict buildings and rooftopping too. I also got into some photography as a consequence - check some of my snaps here http://londonbikers.com/forums/Topic696768-81-1.aspx
I was wondereing if there are any other urban explorer’s here on LB?
cheers dudes, if you like 'em check my flickr stream here http://www.flickr.com/photos/shando_/ for sh*t loads more from derelict mental asylums to swimming pools and loads more inbetween
Yeah, I I know 28DL mate but don’t frequent it too often as they have too many ‘rules’ which kinda goes against what I’m about. I frequent www.talkurbex.com which is a relatively new urbex site started late last year by a few top urbex names in UK & Europe.
Amazing pics, in fact the first one almost looks like a painting. Many years ago we went off exploring a local small shut down hospital and it was amazingly eerie, things left almost like people had fled with a moments notice. Would love to go exploring again though.
From memory (which is pretty vague these days!) I think it was Charley from here that used to do this too, had links to other UE forums with amazing pictures not just in the UK either, if you search im sure you will find a thread on it, think this was about 2/3 years ago.

Just seen Charley has already post!! Teach me to post on here whilst still half asleep!!
I’m not sure I follow you on the “two many rules” part of 28DL. They are very much elitist, sending anyone’s post/pics that don’t cut it to the bin, but for me that says something about the quality of posts on 28DL. It also means I don’t bother posting many of mine!
