  • Lol yeah that's what I thought. There's a fuckload of bikes around at the moment!

  • a guy on a conversion with orange deepv's or similar this morning in withington he has a post mans bag but isnt a post man i didnt notice alot else as i was too busy speeding past and avoiding busses ;-)

  • dude on a repainted? black alu bike, probably fixed, risers, going down parkway approx 09.05. If you're on here sorry I didn't stay to chat, was late for work.

    Good beard

  • I've been spotted already or at least my gazelle has, hi all.

  • the gazelle is the best conversion i have seen in a long time.

    spotted a tiny tt frame conversion outside met library just now, was it a geoffrey butler? can't remember. but it looked fun with the 650 front, bit of a back breaker mind you.

    Jacks bike, it is a geoffrey butler

  • I love that bike, swoopy top tube all the way!

  • saw a guy on a navy pista tanking it down kingsway in the rain. nice one

  • 4 today.
    A courier slamming it up the oxford road on a blue track frame. I've seen him before, long blonde hair in a pony tail.
    A orange beater with some spokecards locked outside the Alan Turing Building.
    A green no-one conversion with a flip-flop hub locked near the university precinct.
    Some guy on a lovely thick tubed black frame with blue bullhorns, red plaid jacket and a faux-hawk dodging buses by the bbc.

    If you own 'em, own up!

  • saw a guy on a white genesis in rusholme, looked knackered, longish brown hair and stubble. made eye contact, nothing more.

  • blue gitane locked outside sam alex man uni building now

    Sounds like a Mills 'n Boon novel

    that's mine, glad it's still there.

  • A dude on a day-glo orange bike, too far away to tell if it was ss or fixed. Going down Oxford road about 2 days ago.

    This thread is a bit odd

    sure it was a dude, there's a chick called emma who rides an all orange bike (orange frame, saddle, deep vs etc)

  • Ha, I know Emma! They did look like they may have recognised me. I'm a fucking idiot, it may well have been her

  • I gave some dude the thumbs up as he was track standing at the lights after st. marys on oxford road. he looked confused and cycled off. nice to meet you pal!

  • Lad on the orange conversion with the deep v's IS actually a postman. Met him at the Platt Fields BMX track, trying to persuade him to come to the thursday polo.

    ah yeh i have seen him since actually and noticed him turning off to withington post building thing so figured he was after all

    were you wearing glasses? if so that was me at the lights, i couldn't hear you (wearing headphones, I know I shouldn't).

  • oh, i feel soooo out of the loop... no fixes on my commute from sk3 to dn6...

  • Yes! i am the postman, with the orange bike, woo..

  • were you wearing glasses? if so that was me at the lights, i couldn't hear you (wearing headphones, I know I shouldn't).

    Yeah wearing big stupid hipster specs, that's I. It's hard to gesture 'I dig the fixed drive chain, as I, myself, ride a similar bike', but a thumbs up is pretty close. Nice ta meetcha!

    Meh, I always listen to one earphone, in the left ear so it's only curbside stuff I block out. Dangerous, true, but so much more fun.

    ALSO. A couple (man and women) on fixed/ss bikes coming down the Oxford Road before the curry mile, both bikes with mudguards, but people in fluro tops. Nice evening ride!

    And last but not least: Josh on his loverly new/old bright orange Bob Jackson, running something like 54/16 with flat pedals. Crazy young man.

  • Okay, whose is the black bike with red wheels and red chain, saw it parked up in withington this avvo,

    i also saw a kinda moave fixie with track bars in lower broughton part of salford, anybody?

  • Lovely steel Sirius with blue deep vee's or aeroheads (?), cut down risers, think it was Mr. Degnan :-)
