10 golden fresh donuts for new fixed gear riders

10 golden fresh donuts for new, casual fixed gear riders

1. Do not ride a fixed gear bike without any foot retention and no brake. Use straps, spd shoes+clip-in pedals or brakes.
   
   

1. Looks. Do not wear extremely tight lycra shorts or tights on their own. Wear baggy shorts over them.
   
   

1. Do not jump red lights when you don't feel like stopping and taking your feet out of straps or disengaging the spds or trackstanding.
   
   

Would anyone else like to add their favourite do not?

What I thought this thread was offering fresh donuts. What the fuck?

I thought I was coming here for a doughnut. So confused.

Sorry lads, our chubby friend Captain Jack Sparrow took them all with him on his way to joining Dosnoventa

Why the fuck would I want to wear baggy shorts over cycling shorts. If I go out on a 200k audax then they're just going to cause chafing, overheating in the nether regions and hold lots of chilling moisture if I get caught in a shower. The same applies for heading for a bit of a trundle around the countryside for coffees or beers. For what? What exactly is this uniform, homogenised look you're hoping people are going to acheive?

I hate this obsession that people have about looks while cycling. Sure there are a few very minimal standards to adhere to but trying to prescribe what people should and shouldn't wear makes you sound like those cunts that came up with the Rules of the Velominati, most of which are a nothing more than spaffing hollow self-gratification on your keyboard. Fuck it, the rule should be wear something that you feel comfortable in that is going to be appropriate for the kind of ride you're doing. If someone doesn't like how you look, they're the cunt, not you.

Also, where are my fucking doughnuts?

"The Rules" can fuck the fuck off. And then fuck a bit more. All the way to Cyclechat.

What if I want to wear something uncomfortable and inappropriate? Fascist!

Then break the rule, they're only for the obedience of fools (and the guidance of wise men). At least it's a rule worth having and choosing to break rather than a rule worth breaking and choosing to have.

Poor thread, must try harder.

I'm I going to get a scathing if I suggest Krispy Kreme?

I have some rather crappy donuts from j sainsburys going spare. In Croydon mind you.

Does anyone else still try and eat the whole donut without licking their lips? I find this easier to do when a thread lies about giving me free donuts so I dont have any donuts to do this with.

Krispy Kreme have their place, but you can't beat proper jam donuts from a proper bakers shop.

Suddenly very hungry.

I do heart Krispy Kreme.
Original and choc custard. Ugh...

I've limited myself to 2 a year, because I could easily do 2 a day.
Difficult when your work drones keep bringing them in for bdays and leaving do's.

I've cashed in my donut credits til 2017 :(

Send your work drones to me ;)

I'm sat here looking at a Custard Slice, and you have my mind filled with the thoughts of Donuts. You've put cakeist thoughts into my already addled friday vibe, no amount of self proliferating Velominati can bend my mind back to a Custard Slice now, take your evil standard driven fake cake thread and write Belm on your forehead where it should remain for the remainder of the weekend.

Meh.

Custard slices are fucking win. A less evolved pastel de nata perhaps but still great.
