Just joined the forum - although I'm from Cambridge, I do seem to spend far too much time browsing this site...
Built up my first fixed gear bike last holiday (still a student...). Frame is an old Elswick Lincoln Imp - the same as Sheldon Brown (RIP) had I believe. Wheels were my first attempt at wheelbuilding but they seem to be holding up fine so far. Haven't broken-in that saddle yet either.

(Is there much going on in Cambridge? Seen a few fixed bikes out and about but not that many - or maybe it's just the crap weather!)
Hey mate, spotted your bike around cambridge a couple of times (i parked my blue & pink daccordi up next to it a few days back in the eng dept, it looked pretty new!). There's a bit of stuff that goes on here, a few guys meet thursdays at 6pm by the maypole and go for rides around the villages. I'm going to head down for the first time this week hopefully, as at last I will have finished my fucking work.
