  • Wests though... none. I literally saw no fixed riders at all this morning. Same procedure every day.

    It's the new frontier, somewhere around Notting Hill.
    There's an aussie guy with an IRO and a Bianchi pista but other than that all I get are posh road bikes / nodders in the AM and London Dynorod guys heading to RP in the PM (lovely steel Pinarello last night). Never see you or Hippo on the run in these days.

  • Ray at 8.15ish on kingsland road this morning. Hey!

  • @hippy - so are you liking your GPS? You've got a Legend HCx right?

    Seriously interested in getting one and would like to hear your thoughts. Does the sticking the postcode of where you want to go in and following the route bit work ok?

  • ha, second or third time i have been spotted :)
    you were way offa your route??

    I'd been to Waitrose carpark to drop off dead bodies recycling.

  • Tuesday teatime in Golders Green dude with a trilby riding a orange frame with blue deep V's I think? Was shocked to see another fixed rider in the desert of GG.

    Heh, I get the same feeling every time I see a fixed rider in Blackheath or Greenwich (i.e. not very often).

    PS so glad I don't live in that hipster shithole Dalston any longer. Anyone seen the daily scene outside the tragic abortion of a pub The Cat & Mutton? Where are the skinheads when you need them??

    No, serious, there's the GPS thread with all the info in it. It's not a Tom Tom it's a trekking GPS I have. The google maps thing was pretty cool but it's designed more for putting in trails and following.

  • someone that didn't know that only one bike can fit at a time on a railed section of canal this morning. Had white HnSons that will not last long riding along the canal.

  • about 9.15 this morning on theobalds road spotted a black Affinity lo-pro with pinky/purply hubs as I clambered off my bike just before the lights. these are not very common and I think i recognised the rider as someone I've seen on here....plagarist maybe? nice bike.

  • doing it for the sistahs there…

    what does it matter what she was wearing or her body shape?

    This isn't about female race. I would have been equally as disgusted if it was a bloke in some kind of similar outfit as well, thank you

    Sounds like Em to me...

    what would it matter what a man was wearing or his bodyshape?

  • If a bloke had written what you had he would have been pulled up on it and rightly so,

    I personally thought that what you wrote was a bit shitty - if the words fat and gut were substituted for tattoos and a hearing aid would you have been pleased, think not…

  • dov: in a car.

  • I consider myself to be fat as well, and wouldnt dream of riding like that.

    It wasnt even a normal outdoorsy short top for ladies, it was a sports bra, the kind youre supposed to wear under the clothes. Nevermind. I aint going to argue with anyone, and I obviously can't delete what I wrote as Ive been qouted on it.

    Good god !

  • But isn't it just common politeness to stop doing something if it's upsetting someone, even if you can't really sympathize with why it's upsetting them?

    For example, I'm a total grammar nerd, and happy (indeed, eager) to be pulled up on typos, errors, etc. I don't really see a problem with people correcting each other (I think it's good), but I'm well aware that lots of people see it differently, and that I wouldn't make many friends if I went around pointing out people's misplaced apostrophes. So I don't.

    Grammar nerds are HOT! 8P

    If you do want this forum to be exclusively a sausage-fest, where you can talk about hot chicks to your hearts' content, some of you are going the right way about it.

    Actually, that turn of phrase really only works in the singular (owing to the difficulty of rendering the idea of multiple hearts' content(s)), in which case the apostrophe should really be before the 's'. ;)

    Wrong! Anglophile or not you can't pull us up on our use of our own idioms! The content doesn't have to be plural...

  • High viz sedgeway man binning it in notting hill at the lights.

    Does the fact I chuckled make me a bad person?

    When those kids get old enough, look out. I am all over that (ok, so I'll also be a creepy fifty year old. It worked for Woody)

    BTW, very funny James, Very funny. And it was four times I was on the radio, not just the once. I am WELL famouse.

  • Yeh and she was the first person in London with Deep V's so THERE!

    Ha! Success! ;D

    I didn't say it had to be, Germanophile (ooh err). My points woz reely moar suttel. Reed agin. ;)

    There should also be a comma after 'not'. ;)

  • Ah, cheers, Tiswas.

  • I tried to illustrate the point with a picture of a bucket of offal, but relented in light of certain vegan's sensibilities.

    This is either an ingenious reference to the Great Apostrophe Controversy or just a missing 'a'. ;)

    Subtle? Peh. But you're right about the comma.
