Yo Bruv Dats Ma Bike!

Thug Life!

Sorry, I can't stop saying that.

hey aidan get the point and a funny one too, it is how i felt as well reading the start of the thread. gives me a right good laugh, though I have to say that never have I seen a tough fixed rider in London so i guess you are wen't a little hysterical. I doubt you are hard and sure a slap from you would be a soft breeze. PS your balls are in your throat if I ever get to meet you withy one dastardly kick.

Anyone ever considered mudguards? That might fix the whole problem at one?

Good idea, no one would want to tax my bike if it had mudguards!

yep ... and maybe some panniers even?

Several times have had groups of kids showing an interest in my bikes. Found it a bit suspicious but never really thought they would try to teef it. Always around Belsize Park / Hampstead though. Think maybe they have just realised that at the moment theres a buck or two to be made from nicking a fixed bike in terms of a quick sell on.

It's one of them things. Currently, my bike seems to be owned by about 20 different people, all mainly between Essex Road and Shoreditch park.
If one more person tells me it's their bike, I'm gonna pull over and get them to give it a clean and start paying insurance on it.
That'll scare 'em!

But seriously, I'm not looking forward to the day I'm (If I'm) stopped.

Fortunately the Witcomb glides smoothly past the Rude Dogs without a peep,
so that's the main ride to work now.
The 'gay pursuit' bike is for team rides only!..Road Rash stylee.

Slaytanic get a fucking old man bike you know it makes sense! Mudguard Kru run ting get me blud?

chalk farm area below belsize is a notorious dodgy zone, friend was surrounded by youths and they removed the bike from him.

You mean by Queens Crescent? I used to live off Malden Road, and it was always a bit rough. I knew some kids who used to punt out bits of 'Paki black', and they was always scoring actual hash off us to smoke, as opposed to their own stuff...

Marquis Estate by Essex Road is home to a nasty gang, who are probably responsible for most of the bike thefts in the area, and Somers Town has been well rough for as long as I can remember. I NEVER tangle with these gangs if I can avoid it - nasty nasty peeps with no respect for property or human life.

I have had little trouble down the years, but I don't generally ride a blinging bike like teen. What was worse, teen, having kids shout stuff at you, or some old codger give you mouthful for cross-locking to his girlfriend's bike?

:-)

i carry one of my "brothers".

Now,Go practice.

[FONT=&quot]Even without a bike it's always wise to avoid a group of yoots[/FONT][FONT=&quot]. They have clocked onto the fixie scene, It's so common to see fixie's and conversions around the city, they learn fast. [/FONT][FONT=&quot] i've had a group of kids approach me 16-18 asking about my bike and most know their shit, some harmless genuine interest, others just wana snatch your bike. [/FONT][FONT=&quot]Riding a pimped out bike will always attract Crack dog and the dweebs, just got to be street wise, keeps your wits about you blah blah blah
[/FONT]

When I moved onto my estate the local kids saw my conversion and asked me if I wanted them to pick me up a bianchi pista. I said 'no, but thanks for asking'. So my nice bikes live in the hallway.

But on the 'yo bruv, that's my bike' thing I usually just laugh and make a joke out of it and they banter a bit but that's about it.

Give the fella your bike........... he then has his hands full whilst you admire the whooshing sound created by your morning star.............

I carry a flask of freddie mercury's blood around with me. One splash and your fucked.

just had fifteen top bike thieves ask me about my bike they let me go but i cant fight that many if they decided to jack me..i could grab my fg lock and break his teeth but i dont want to be another statistic..
like thats a nice bike and how do you stop it...i idid not stop to reply.. just need to get a really crap looking beater and not ride my nice one when the clocks go back..thats sad..!

moose where was you riding, when you got stopped?

mod one your handlebars into a knive yeah?

i've hardly ever had trouble on my bike, just kids shouting at me or trying to push me off, nothing major. i've always assumed that if some kid did try to steal my bike and ride off, they'd try to freewheel and get thrown off..

oh but i also wear my fat chain lock round my neck so maybe that wards potential muggers off?
