Show the owner you appreciate his bike by festooning it with garlands and praying to it.

In London you gotta be careful eyeing up bikes. The owner will think you're planning on stealing it. (Unless you're at Ace on bike night or something)
For this reason you have to preemptively mitigate any suspicions that your intentions may be nefarious by exaggerating your appreciation for the bike, even if it isn't that great of a bike and you were just curious what make/model it was.
Something like this:

And if the owner does catch you looking at his bike, you compliment him and make this face:

To some, we are an odd breed. Especially to those in any direction 10 miles or further out of the city. |
