    Could have been me, can't remember what day it was. Were a few of you walking yours bikes towards goldhawk road from the green?

  • I dont hate on MTBs, I was on a mission to go pick my new frame up from BLB.

    what what what???

    Spagettihoops on Brixton Water Lane, riding on the pavement, RLJ'ing, then riding the wrong way down the one-way road. In a hurry? :)

    i thought that was you i passed, i didn't recognize the bike though... you seem to have a different bike every time i see you!
    and yes, that was me riding like a prick, i was about an hour and a half late for saturday training at HH, and hoping i would get there in time to get a few laps in.... but too late unfortunately!.... all that law breakin' for nothin.

  • Girl on a polo bike at the parnell road entrance to viccy park this afternoon, with mallet and disc - lovely day for it.

    Ha, yeah was on the geared Merckx this time, coming back from Richmond Park laps. Did you make it around the one-way ok? Two lanes of oncoming traffic seems dicey!

  • Brief glimpse of guy on blue frame, straight bars by Bexleyheath Library an hour ago. I was sat in car otherwise I would have given chase and shouted the password.

  • Me, launching over my handlebars, and destroying my saddle in the process, Crazy crashes FTW!

  • Spotted the women that lives in the flat downstairs aggressively accusing my girlfriend of scratching her lovely 'fixie" that never seems to leave the communal hallway.

    *Not me but have been wondering if I'm the only gearless rider in the borough. Rode randomly all over Welling, Falconwood, Avery Hill, Sidcup, Foots Cray, Albany Park, Bexley and Bexleyheath earlier and did not spot a soul although I have very briefly espied a SS rider heading along Park View Road on a couple of occassions.

    You're bound to spot purple_mj on his fixed titanium Condor round Sidcup one day...

    Bloody 'ell I've been riding fixed around here for eight years in an invisibility cloak ;)

    I know of a few others two from the old C+ forum commute to town via Avery Hill, spotted another two Specialised Tri-Cross riders by top of Gravel Hill fortnight ago.
    There are five of my mates from the Bexleyheath CTC that all ride fixed, a red British Eagle, a Pearsons Hanzo, a Pearsons Touche, a TJ Quick and a bitser :D

    I think I have met Jamie at my Grimpeur ride and on the TDF sportive.

  • Two chaps riding fixed through Turners Hill in a Brightonly direction. Brain was going too slowly to shout anything but me and muse140 were in the crown (?) pub at the top of that hill...

  • Loic (I think) riding on a lovely vintage looking track bike coming up to camberwell green from Peckham at around 2:30ish..

    Realised too late to shout anything

    Note to self - must ride with eyes open. Not commuting on a bike probably means I miss most of these guys.

    One of the Spesh tricross riders is probably a guy I was chatting to in Greenwich Park a few weeks back. I spotted him again heading down Wickham Lane more recently when I was out on new plastic geared toy but stopped to adjust gear change stops and never managed to catch him again - he obviously went a different way to me ;)

  • person on Lordship lane last night, i yelled 'do a skid' and they kindly obliged.

  • Just seen the teenciest, unmarked blue frame locked up with an Mini D outside that bed shop on Green Lanes near the post office.
    I've genuinely never seen tubing as narrow gauged as that - it looked like a few pencils stuck together with PVA - but bloody gorgeous whatever it was.

    Meee! so you were the fairly tiddled looking guy crossing the road, i was kinda worried skiding as my back tyre is utterly worn down to the thready stuff underneath the rubber, hadn't done a single skid all of that previous week.

  • The ace of spades of spots....

    Edscoble and missus, crossing Gower st on torrington place, saturday, around 8:30, I was just walking out my door and did not shout 'do a skid'. Never met him but both bikes recognised from the projects thread.

    Top Trump or what?!?

  • nearly entirely bright green old skool BMX with mag wheels locked up outside richmond tesco, locked my bike next to it and when i came back out it had gone... i would have loved to have seen the owner..

  • White frame, white front 'spok, risers with black(?) grips. Small afro with cycling cap, gave me a nod as I walked my bike with f*cked rear tyre just past Clapham South tube.

  • Gus, I think, on Brick Lane about 4 hours ago. I waved and shouted hello, but was left feeling ignored and rejected.

  • Sat 4pm ish Fixed rider on Condor with white Drops on Meridian Way heading north as I was mashing south.

  • Chris Moyles in the Flask yesterday afternoon

  • Yesterday on the Embankment and all the way along the river, literally hunders of nodders doing a nodder charity ride.

    Today's charity nodder is tomorrow's cyclist.

  • it was the stroke foundation, based near old street.
    i had a little ride along with them for a laugh. nice people.

    shit thats irritating.....I can relate.

  • Yesterday on the Embankment and all the way along the river, a litter rally of hunders of nodders doing a nodder charity ride.

    Clive, that's really uncalled-for.
