Spotted...

So many friendly people.

Been stopped loads today by nice people wanting to talk about my bike and fixed gear in general. Here are a few of the more interesting ones:

A very cheery bus driver outside New Cross Sainsburys who said he had a fixed gear in his cellar that he hadn't used for over 20 years, said after seeing so many people riding them he's gonna dust his off and start riding again.

A train conductor who chatted with me the whole way from East Croydon to Barnham about fixed gear and bikes in general, said he wanted to buy a Chrome backpack after seeing mine.

Another happy person when I got off the train at Barnham who complemented me on my bike and told me how he used to work as a framebuilder at Brian Rourke. Very interesting guy.

What a great day!

Superb!

Soho square. Guy loading a black framed, orange bull horned ss bike into a black cab. I had no idea you could do that.

ha! I was wandering down there thinking "doesn't look like the recession has *quite *hit here yet"

lol, the exact same thought occurs to me every time I'm on Charlotte St, it's bonkers.

again gormley?? or are you just eager for them to know the measure of their fame.

Now with added actual proof. I think from now on all spots should be on video or they didn't happen.

ha i never spot anyone as cycle south east to west at silly o'clock in the morning...i had a day off for some riding around town and actually spotted peeps! I can spot you for beer..

Think it was Keith last night heading east on Old st. with his Rollapaluza cap on..

Aleksi at Camberwell Green track standing for ages.

adoubletap breezing past me on borough high st this morning, I timidly shouted do a skid, but was way too tired and bummed out from the night before.

two children crossing the road at Rochester Row, whilst myself and Miss_socks were doing a recce for the Tour de Flange last night.

small boy: {looking at my spok} Wow! I bet that wheel cost like over a £10000
miss_socks: actually its fiddy dorrah
small boy: {looks confused}

Also this afternoon a unipack with carbon forks. Oh the shame.

Small black Cannondale track frame with colored deep section rims and a skull and crossbones headbadge in the hall of my house today. Someone on here?

I want one of these badly but I haven't even seen anyone with one or seen any in shops.

obviously my story made quite an impression on you :) he did have a bike as I recall. wasn't fixed though. i only wish that living with my ex-girlfriend's mother for five years was the weirdest thing i've ever done though.... but that's for another day.

Spotted a guy with a green cap on an astonishing yellow vivalo track frame on Hackney Rd. FUCKING NICE FINISH!!.. im the one who said nice bike and gave you a thumbs up as i passed,,, definitely someone here

Lovely path racer style Harry Grub with 3-speed, bloke wearing flat cap and plus 4 type things, fair belting along embankment towards Blackfriars. Impressive work squire.

About 20 fixed riders this afternoon between Old Ford and Kings Cross around 3pm. Girl on a black frame with purple rims and tyres slung over her shoulder, Tricitybendix per chance?
