Sigh this doesnt bode well....
err. not the new members, the bike theft I mean! :).
Glad to see the community growing. Once you have your fixie in action make sure you get a photo of your mug and your bike up in the respective thread, so we can give each other knowing nods out on London streets!

Hovis, I'm returning to London town tomorrow (leaving here at 5 am, not looking forward to it) with my bike to house-hunt. Are you around? If so would you mind terribly if I relieved you of a spoke-card? (does aidan have one?)

you win :)
I've been lurking a bit and thought I'd better sign up.
Just caught the fixie bug recently and bought a Langster..poo brown, now weird white.
I flipped the wheel round for my daily commute and nearly killed myself at the 1st set of lights but I'm ok now!
Hope y'all don't mind me asking newb questions. Cheers
