Welcome

cheers, ill go ahed and nab it for a mate then.

whenever you fancy it can meet you up central or if you fancy a beer chez moi give me a shout

Thought I'd introduce myself rather than lurk longer. Lacking a Chester forum I thought I'd join this... Been fixed for getting on for six months now, ever since I acquired an old Colnago track bike. This one - though its now got straight-bladed chromed Colnago road forks courtesy of a FGG poster

hi

nice frame and huge front cog no hills in chester then

53-tooth, though I swapped that 16 for a 19 sprocket when I replaced the sprints with Ambrosio clinchers. But no, not many hills if one stays this side of the Welsh border, more rolling countryside - fast down, fast up...

hello mate, that is a sweet colnago.

Nice bike. Well if there is an event you want to come down to I am sure oneof would beable to give you a sofa to kip on.

Cheers - and if anyone fancies a provincial break....

i realised that i've been posting for nearly three weeks and haven't introduced myself!

My name is Tom, I'm a student from Basingstoke. I know that the forum is mainly aimed at london riders, but I am moving to London in September for uni plus there aren't any other fixed/ss forums, that i've discovered, as good as this.

I ride a cotic roadrat, currently set up as a singlespeed. As soon as I have the cash in a couple of weeks, going fixed :) Wouldn't mind a old track frame, too.

What uni are you heading too?

imperial college, for chemistry

yoyoyo all,

i'm a roofer and wannabe frame builder from east london cochin in n1
a few of you may have seen me wipe out like a w$nker at cm friday just gone on a pink bike at parliament square YEAH!

Have fun with that eeehhhh, I'm just finishing my chemistry degree in Durham, about halfway through I started wishing I'd accepted my offers from UCL or Imperial.

If you're in the market for any second hand books let me know, I've got the OUP's holy trinity and a 'Maths for Chemists' text, practically unread, naturally...

rattlebag - yeah, i'm looking forward to it a lot. cool, i'll remember that and pm you when I find out the required texts, cheers.

Come on man.. I can't even draw stick-figures and this lass has drawn stickers to go on her hand-built frame!
Besides, I use that Comic font all the time. It's only surpassed by my use of those rarities known as Times New Roman and Arial hehe :P

cheers hippy, can't fault the girl for going and doing it boss. reckon she could get done for copyright infringement though (anyone remember 'fred the pirahna'?)

Is this forum full of designers or something?
