  • I put my hands up to this being a shameless plug but I hope it's of interest!

    Mosquito Bikes are hosting an open day on April 10th from 3pm till 8.30pm at the shop on 123 Essex Road, Islington, N1.
    Star of the show will be legendary framebuilder Dario Pegoretti who recently won the title of 'Framebuilder of the Year' at the North American Handbuilt Bike Show. Dario has a huge amount of knowledge and experience and is a great character so it should be quite an event.
    We also have Joe Ingram from Independent Fabrication, Recep from Fixie Inc and representatives from Litespeed and Scott.
    Plenty of free food and drinks and lots to new stuff to look at and talk about.
    Entrance is free but to keep an eye on numbers could you please register by visiting http://www.mosquito-bikes.co.uk and follow the email link.

  • i'd be interested in coming, but if you locked your bike outside, it would be gone in 5 mins!!

  • I hope chris is back for this!

  • I will make sure we can provide some secure bike parking. We will be able to accomodate a good number of bikes in the workshop and in our yard, if that overflows we will keep someone posted at the front of the shop to keep an eye on locked bikes. Phil

  • PJ

    I almost wet myself laughing but am not sure how many others will have understood your post!!!

    Fcuk the Gooners!

  • asm I hope chris is back for this!

    Poor old Chris has gotta miss it, cos the british consulate in the US don't believe I - long-suffering fiancee and supposed key to european citizenship and all things UK- am British.

    He can't travel nowhere as the consulate aren't letting go of his passport until I top up my Britishness...!

  • Are you British?

  • cor blimey, yes!

  • *Shallow Maive: * the consulate aren't letting go of his passport until I top up my Britishness...!

    Can't you top that up at pay points now? :)

    Ha, Ha if you like :-) You can certainly leave your bike here for a short while if i'm in

  • I tried giving the entry clearance officer my varied ranged of UK-wide accents, but she wasn't buying.

    she insists I get myself a UK passport or she'll piss on Chris and I's dreams and no mistake.

  • oh well... sounds like shouting "look over there!!" then sneaking chris back into hackney isn't going to work then.

  • pj (pj) i'm definitely coming, i want to ask him how he has done such a formidable job at Crewe on such scant resources.

    I don't get it

    :(
