• I made the exact same mistake and left half an hour later to try fixed out on the commute for the first time. So much fuckwittery mainly arising from other cyclists; twice I was cut up to the point of having to emergency stop by 'fellow' cyclists. I think I'm also going to find an alternate route to avoid the cycle highway from St. Georges Circus to Fleet street as it's just too packed with people doing reckless things to get their PBs down or some shit.

    Also what's with these bellends with speakers attached to their bags or bars blasting out shite music? Fuck them too.

  • Were you riding a Roberts track?

    Yes that cycle lane can be dicey, lots of people make poor decisions along there

  • Nah just some old unnamed 10 speed I've converted as a test to see if I like fixed; if I do, I may look into something a bit nicer. I've been using it where I live for errands and that but wanted to try the commute today. It was surprisingly nice but really makes you think about junctions and stopping differently!
