I confess...

It might not look too bad, but to quote Turkish, it's proper fucked.

I put wheels and bars from another bike onto my kalavinka frame and walked it around.

Are you @>>>>>>

A few years ago in a sportive, rather than take 5 mins to stop, I decided to piss myself and carry on. I decided that this was OK since it was lightly raining. It wasn't OK.

#1 When I was about 7 I locked the bathroom door and closed it (God only knows why I did it), I blamed it on my brother who in turn blamed it on the cat instead of protesting his innocence and because of that to this day he still gets the blame when it comes up in conversation and I still haven't come clean.

#2 I joined this forum just to confess to that, you are the only people who know!

But while I'm here I may Aswell confess to more..

#3 I still reach for the brake leavers daily!

#4 I'm so obsessed with bicycles that when I see a really hot girl ridng a bike, I check her bike out before anything else, this worries my girlfriend! I also look at every bike I pass and if it's a really nice one I usually say something like 'ooo that's sexy' under my breath. This also worries my girlfriend.

Number 4 is perfectly normal here.

Come to drinks and the majority of people will be staring at the bike not the rider

I had a senior citizen moment yesterday. Completely forgot I was on the fixeh skidder and tried to coast. Back wheel lifted off the ground quite a lot.

3 yeah well so do I... and 4 too ;)

I've seen 4 on streets too bicycle fanatics check each others steeds. I stop somewhere at a light and somebody else eyes up my bike.

i'm going home. it's been a long day.

Yeah, also do 4.

As long as we don't end up sniffing random stranger's bike seats...

Glad it's normal :D

I know I'm writing this in the wrong thread but wasn't actually sure where to ask.. I live in Oxford but I'm looking to get out of Oxford once or twice a month just to experience something new, would I be welcome for a drink/ride sometime?

Nah.

Nah.

You didn't even ask if he plays polo!

Went to cut a new 10-speed chain last night on the big/big+2 formula. Instead decided to minus 2 and didn't understand why it didn't make the distance. =/

had a 'moment' with the new atacs this morning. couldn't get my foot in, had to stop by the side of the road. my feet are so used to my spds that the atac engagement feels completely wierd and alien. much nicer when clipped in though.

I have been thinking about drinking beer since the moment I woke up today...

Me too, I took some into work to drink but then the shutter was fucked so came home again. Don't quite feel right drinking at home now.

Maybe I'll go to a pub.

A pub in Sheffield?

Well, later on maybe.

I can't draw women
