Start Dartford-Erith-Abbeywood-Plumstead-Woolwich Tunnel-Silvertown-then CS3 Poplar to Tower Gateway-Tower Hill-Lower Thames Street-BlackFriars-Fleet Street + Finish at Holborn.

Can you show us a selfie so we know who to look out for?

Thats my EXACT route, i've never seen you. Perhaps a few more tats may help?

Wow that's a fair commute, none of that's on my short sprint in alas I probably wont bump into you.

Our of interest, how long have you been doing that commute?

What's RDB?

Bianchi pista concept 2005/6 with track drops and front brake on Weymouth st.

Too shy.... but imagine a slightly overweight 50 yr old hairy Hippy on a well-chipped 34 yr ol Dawes FG conversion (with a Chain ring and Hotpants tatt'd on his face)!

Sorry Mr goonz, no room left for more face Tatts. The Chainring tatt was a 52T so its taken up a fair bit face-room.

roadie douche bag? just a guess

I've only been riding FG for a year, I'm a very late starter. Almost 50 y/o but had the itch to start commuting by cycle (instead of motorcycling) about 3 months now but I can only manage it 2 or 3 times a week due to it totally knackering me out each time! Its ~19.5 miles each way but very flat thankfully until I get back to DirtFud where I have to climb up East Hill at the very end of the ride. Luv riding my bike and getting my health back and weight down. Did a PB today, 1Hr 16min 2 Secs.

Respect, and may I say inspirational.

Thanks all, very kind.

I did a thread here about a year ago resurrecting my rusting heap (and the bike -arf!) http://www.lfgss.com/conversations/231778/

Yeah the reason I asked was because of your user name, I think you might have jumped the gun on that a bit because if your doing 60 miles fixed every week you wont be a "FatMan" for much longer.
I've been riding fixed for about 2 and a half/3 years but only started commuting the last 6 months. Got a 6 mile "sprint" each way and I've gone from 34 inch waist to a 30 and I've dropped my asthma off on the way as well.

Wowee, thats a a 1/3 of a foot, nice work on the waistline Mr dotes.

I was a wobbly 15 1/2 stone at the start of summer '13 and over the last year as I've ramped up my weekly mileage dropped down to 12st 9lbs. I still eat and drink what I used to cos I enjoy good Veggy food and Hop-flavoured drinks but its just burning off now instead of accumulating. I stopped skateboarding at 46 and with both kids grown up and moved out thats when the weight went on.

ahha - it was you then!

me canna skid!!

did look about though!

A+ thread, would read again.

Haha that's a good way of putting it, cheers!

That's cracking work mate! You've been chucking the weight off! And a few proper pints are definitely part of a balanced diet :)

'Twas I

Ta also. I'd have updated it more often if I knew folk were reading it!

Make it out to @dimi3

@spotter was nice to see you, and I did do a little skid just after I shouted back!

Silver fixed gear riding bespectacled man on the shaftesbury ave end of Greek Street, God bless you and your DAS acknowledgement and impressive skid at around six thirty tonight

My first 'spotted'! Couldn't ignore such a bellowing DAS.

(my bike is navy not silver tho)
