  • There was this guy on a heavy and fat-looking full-sus thing who was keeping up with me from there to Shepherds bush the other week on tube strike day. I was doing between 15 and 30mph most of the way on my 753 road bike. Fuck knows how quick he would have been riding something more suited to his journey.

    I had a guy keep up with me up archway road, same tonnage on a full sus mountain bike really pushing through the pedals. he could have damaged me on a road bike but i like to think he collapsed shortly after i swung off to the right.
    I had an old boy on a 3 speed step through beast of a bike do the same on the way to shepherds bush. man he earnt my respect.. its all about the ride not your fancy fixie!

    Mask is spot on, these fools will smoke themselves, the only down point is the overall reputation they give cyclists.
    I was out with an old friend last thursday and two people he works with hate fixed gear cyclists as they have both been knocked off by one who couldn't control it.

    It took me ages to explain how you get shit riders on all bikes. as long as something really bad doesn't happen and laws change i am happy to let them be and darwin to happen
