TrixieDix..?

We just want to talk to each other so much that we've taken over this thread.

cough pm function cough

Either that or everyone else was just jumping on the band wagon when it was warm and 'cool' to ride tricks on fixed.

no, the people there in the summer were the bandwagon.. you came rather later, as a result of the momentum of this very thread - so don't knock 'em mate ...

Oh, I love friendly banter :-)!

Just noticed you lot chatting about forks - I might have mentioned them before, but check out the Handsomedog ones they have on ebay for £10.99 + postage

I've got some on my bike, James I think you saw them the last time I was at the car park.

Yeah, they're the ones that have been spotted at Trixie Dix on several bikes and seem to be the ones to go for if you want a bit more of a trick ride and be able to do barspins. Not available in 1" though :-(

summer tuesday tricks was AMAZING!
this photo was taken at like 9pm... good times

Where was that at?

summer everything is amazing.

fuck winter and the bain

that was the car park!

NO WAY! Now there's the difference between summer and winter right there. I go to that car park nearly every week and I still didn't recognise it!

Great photo, I can't wait for the days to start getting longer.

They already are as well, I can tell because I usually got up and started my commute pretty much in the dark. Hope the weather is gonna be better for next Tuesday. We need to bring back the boombox and the good atmosphere!

don't know if I can make this week with the boom box (a friend has come to stay), but I'll be back soon.

I too cant wait for summer on the roof again, did anyone say BBQ?

Roll on summer...just remember the light being awesome up there.

hi guys is this on this tuesday?

It is indeed, peeps normally start getting there about 7ish, and gets busy around 8 onwards, then usually ends with a few of us grabbin some Brick Lane Bagels/Beigels...

awesome count me in guys my bike is just rideable and hopefully it stays dry
im still a bit precious with it so need to htfu as they say

Well as long as we get a better turn out than last week!

I'm there this tues, fully DMR trailbladed up, went from -5mm clearance to about + 10cm clearance with a 700c wheel on my 53cm steamroller.

Good times! Need to get a 19t sprocket though. Anyone? And i have my wheelies crazy dialled, i wheelied my road for about 100m, and around the corner... Was well pleased. 1 handers are coming on pretty well too, and i killed 1 handers on my mtb today, pleaseddd. Need a tiny gearing to get barspin wheelies down by the feels of things though i reckon, and clips+straps...

I'd go for your regular gearing still for the barspins. It feel pretty normal to me when I do them and I haven't gone down a gear. Then again, I use my bike as my commute as well, so I can't keep changing the gearing.

On tuesday :(

On tuesday :(

Try today mate!

Last night I checked the weather forecast and it suggested a possibility of snow again tomorrow. Has it changed now?

trixie dix very much going ahead tomorrow evening - we've had rain as bad as this before and we fall into our contigency plan, which is one floor down. I seem to remember Gus particularly likes it as it adds a certain frisson to the proceedings, namely smashing your head against the pipes as you bunny hop.

Tomorrow!

Yea, its supposed to be kinda sunny tomorrow...
And i also saw the heavy snow report, strange shit.

If it isn't raining I'm deffinitelly going. Otherwise I'm just gonna stick to trackstanding inside..mmm

What about that secret underground carpack spot I've heard of?

What about southbank? That's sheltered.

I'm up for it though, gonna be there about 7 30ish, as i finish at 7.

Need to come out of my shell and talk to people tomorrow, i promise! I will attempt to remember everyones names too.
