Names and faces to bikes

i am coming up to York at the end of January and will be there until mid-May. Anyone aware of some nice kids who ride around there?? Delta Airlines is threatening to charge me $300 each way to bring my bike so I dont think I'm gonna be able to make that work... would love to pick up a beater to have fun on for a few months.

Welcome, Seth, and don't worry, there are plenty of bikes in York:

It just for fun fat C*unt

Haha! Just realised that was for me, thought it was completely unrelated.

Not very good with puns are we :P

Oh, and i'm not actually fat, at all.

OK, just for pistanator, here I am

Novelty Pista (the novelty being that I've kept the original decals. She's pretty filthy right now (the way I like her)

And me - the least ugly one I could find

Up and over.

That's on Paragon Road - right next to my house.

I see a few BMXers around the School for some reason.

Tika, was that frame an eBay purchase?

is that correct flick ?

im 6'3" and my inside leg is ~87cm or ~34".

you must have extremely long legs to body length proportions.

I'm 6'5 and I'm 34-36 leg for trousers... 40 just sounds mental

I'll be posting this up every so often from now until the big kick off in feb. If you want to add your name to the list just click on thread and do so. Look forward to seeing you all on the rides to beers

New Members Compass Beer Rides: 7pm Departure Trafalgar Sq

 Things we do well on this forum, organise and go on a regular basis to Drinks, wherever they may be, and Ride. 

So in the spirit of these two elements, comes the all new,
New Members Compass Beer Rides.

It has been noted that meeting up with a big group of forumengers that you don't know in a pub can be slightly intimidating. So to make it less so, this idea has been put forward to combine drinks and rides.

Think of it as a Forum Fresher's week, without the hazing, so that the previous months new members get a chance to meet up with, and ride with fellow forumengers. Talk bikes, find out where drinks are, and get a good ride in at the same time
You can come out to the beers closest to you, or trek out to a beers on the otherside of town, safe in the knowledge that you'll be with people who a) know where they are going, and that b) someone will be heading back in your general direction so you can ride home in the company of another forumenger.

So For One Week, every couple of months, there will be rides from Trafalgar Sq, to the Beers,

**Monday - Souths @ The Coach and Horses
Tuesday - Norths @ The Flask or
Tuesday - South Easts @ The Kings Arms or
Tuesday - Trixie Dix @ **White's Row Car Park Roof. White's Row, Off Commercial Street
** Wednesday - Easts @ The Royal Inn on the Park
Thursday - Wests @ The Crabtree or The Ship (season dependent)
Sunday - Polo @ Brick Lane Polo Courts.**

A couple of regulars from each beers will be at Trafalgar Sq from approx 6.30 for a prompt 7pm departure, (1pm for a 1.30pm departure on Sunday) And will take any new member who so wishes for a ride which will arrive at beers/polo.

The first Compass Beer Rides will be
Feb 16-23 2009.

with provisional dates for the following being
Apr 6-12
Jun 8-14.

So New Members start here, come down to the ride to the beers, introduce yourself to other new and regular members, get a good ride into a beers, enjoy a soothing alcoholic beverage in the soothing presence of your new found bike friends and get a warm and fuzzy feeling at being welcomed into the collective forum bosom.

Ps.
The meeting up and departure time could be bought forward by half an hour if enough people want to meet and leave earlier.

That is all...

you're so sweet

Bike.

Rider of bike.

Hello.

Bike.

Rider of bike.

Hello.

Grrr. Picture fail.

talking of names; how did you come to choose your forum name, bape-victim?

Erm...
...how to articulate this without sounding a dick...

...

I used to think that a lot of people who wore bape clothing and bought into that kind of thing/lifestyle were hideous victims of fashion (esp DJ types, whom I used to spend a lot of my time with and should have had better things to concern themselves with than looking like James Lavelle and DJ hype). Bapesta style stuff 'rapes' you in the pocket as well, so it was just a shortening. A bit tabloid really.
Anyway, once you have picked your username why bothe re-registering, and I was using that a while back when I registered (and still do on Ebay) you can call me Chris though :)

Isn't Bapesta that kinda like those cartoon monkeys Pharrell and his fellow shit producers wear?

Bape, you sound like a dick!

sarcasm

Fair point :P

Isn't Bapesta that kinda like those cartoon monkeys Pharrell and his fellow shit producers wear?
