Spotted...

scruffy lookin dude last night on City Rd about 7pm with a red (?) frame, spoke cards and a couple of polo mallets strapped on. I was chuggin along in the other direction on a strange looking bike with a blue jacket on and we had a "nod".

Ha ha,red frame,scruffy=Buffalo Bill!

Are you Johan that I know who owns a red Chesini and was at tricks the other night on some mental lo pro?

no, that'd be "johan".

Ha ha,red frame,scruffy=Buffalo Bill!

i was thinking the same thing

Someone (young) in Tooting with black gripped risers on a white(?) frame in dark cycling cap. Share a nod on Furzedown drive, on here?

Not me, but I'm along Furzedown drive fairly often. I'm on a gold(ish) roy swinnerton with white taped drops - say hi if you see me.

Thanks to the guy who stopped to ask if I was OK fixing a puncture at Manor House. It's nice to know there's good, helpful people out there.

(also that will teach me to not risk it with such massive skid patches)

Keep seeing a really nice looking brakeless RIH locked up on Berner St. W1. It's mainly white with red and blue bits i think (the frame that is). And, whilst sitting on Reception where i work (also on Berner St), i think i just saw the bike whizz past. If you're on here. Lovely bike mate, i've been admiring it for a while - actually considered coming to work with bolt cutters and transfering ownership ;)
Seriously though, i wouldn't be locking it to a fence anywhere. Least of all round here!

Mr Dougie Fresh at Waterloo, cool to see you dude... Good night's sleep all 'round methinks... ;]
And Ephrahim, good to roll and chat towards Brixton with you... Beautiful evening for it...

JC and fair company watching me do an unceremonious and ugly double unclip at some lights on Charing Cross Road. Skill fail!

some absolute eej outside decathlon at about 2.20 today doing the whole freewheel-front brake only thing

To the chap I nearly took out on Piccadilly this afternoon (changing lanes without looking properly) - I unreservedly apologize. I was riding like a twat. Sorry.

On Hackney Road now, some dude with gelled back hair, tache, shirt and trousers, shiny black shoes, blue Pearson lo-pro with a carbon tri-spok up front and a white tyre up back. And a brake. And matching hipster girlfriend.

me: getting some sweet air over the bonnet of a silver vauxhall this morning on liverpool road, islington. middle-aged lady driver decided that it would be a great idea to turn left as I was passing her in the bike lane, without checking her mirrors OR indicating... (actually the first flash of the indicator was the last thing I saw before launching into the air).

i gave her a stern but not profanity-laced talking to. her excuse was "I'm so sorry, I was talking..."

no significant damage to me or the bike though, so i'm really only complaining about breaking my london hit-by-a-car duck. glad i was wearing padded mitts, though.

bloke wearing white headphones near notting hill on a very nice orlowski, drops with brown bar tape about 19.15

magpie's neon'ed steez locked up at cityroad half past 6 ish. saw it hanging from oldstreet already ;P hi!

Some chap passing by Arsenal stadium this eve, on a Navy (i think) frame with lighter blue forks. Calmly and swarvely uttered, "Word" as he passed us, with a suitably matching hand gesture. Sorry i gave you a slightly confused look, i was in a bit of a daze.

spotted alex in cavendish not having a 7mm allen key :( - got one know though ;)

Ah har! Yeah.
But as i think someone mentioned, i had previously cobbled together bits from a socket set. Had to get some campag road cranks off with self extracting bolts and 7mm crank bolts. Weird and annoying, but it got the job done!
