Spotted...

I was going pretty slow getting ready to stop and he came from behind me, pulled up along side me and grabbed a handfull of my right arse cheek, squezzed and gave a harty "Whey-hey!!" I could tell he thought he'd been a bit of a funny guy until the recognition that I wasn't Dave from Accounts.

he might have been one of the 'bum of the week' adjudicators.

adjudicator? does that mean I'd already been nominated on an earlier ride... I have to admit, I'm pretty excited.

anyone who rides a bicycle is in the running... so yes :)

some dood going wrong way up savoy street. hi.

oh and also some guy on a white hybrid, as i was going down southampton row, chooses the best time to overtake. taxi starts coming out of catton street, check my shoulder before moving right and there he is. got a bit tight.

To the guy with flouro jacket and yellow-walled tyres who overtook me on the left hand side between the road works and a taxi at the junction of Tottenham Court Road and Oxford street about half an hour ago: put the bike down and get on the tube. Seriously. You are not safe to be riding on the road. Not only did you jump every red in eyesight but you don't look over your shoulder when changing lanes and you wobble all over the place like Amy Winehouse on a bike. For the safety of everyone concerned, stop cycling immediately.

I would hate it if my first spot was a line like that... I dread it everytime i see them... Could it be me, could it really be me... I wear flouro... sometimes... I was cycling today... sometime... I have a bike... pheeeeeeeeew, its near tot-court!!! safe!!!

Haha, needed to get it off my chest - he was amongst many people that unreasonably pissed me off on the way home today and normally I'm fairly placid on the road. Feel better now :)

And i feeel better it wasnt me!

Maybe that you worry about this is a sign that you secretly know you piss people off on the road :p

or maybe its cause i care what you think? sniff sniff...

Saw Loic this morning cycling down Coldharbour lane from the Camberwell end. He was riding a lovely looking white bike with black decals, and drops. Didn't get a very good look at the bike, but it looked nice.
I would've said hello, but you had that morning look about you, and I was ashamedly at the bus stop - suited.

saw Edscoble riding condor track bike outside the condor.

That has to happen one day! condor outside condor.

anybody, wasn’t nobody could have been somebody, on a fixed bike today

That has to happen one day! condor outside condor.

I think I spotted Clefty at the E&C roundabout this morning;

Red Villiers frame - check
Red Aerospoke - check
Swrve Milwaukee - check

Couldn't be sure though as whoever it was underneath all that clothing only had eyes visible. :-)

was that the balakini look? (copyright Furious Tiles)

Mr Wigan Will on Caledonian Road this morning, looking dashing.

spotted at around half eight on the corner of parks square east (regent's park) and euston road:
x1 dark blue condor, black forks, black mudguards and mavic rims
x1 light blue condor, black forks (who I bumped into when your foot came off the pedal when starting off)

either of you on here? was fun tailing you down outer circle... normally people don't go along that fast in the morning

today is the only day i am commuting at 8.30. it is jokes. the other cyclists annoy me more than drivers "yes it is helpful for you to overtake and stop infront of me when i am waiting and lights only for me to overtake when they go green" "it is also helpful for you to be all over the road"

A young lady checking out my legs while riding a celeste (I didn't know non Bianchi bikes used that colour) condor on Jamacia way this morning

Funniest thing yesterday... you know that thing when you get stopped by lights and you all end up bunching up, and you pull off in a pack and no-one is particularly going faster than anyone else?

Some nutter raced to the front of the pack and had to stop at the lights. Lights went green, we all pulled off. I'm sitting on his wheel as I'm in no hurry and I'm not really going faster than him or anything, he glances behind and brakes suddenly... I go around him and ask him if he's alright... and he says in a really wimpy tone "Fuck off, shouldn't have been on my wheel.". The guy was really upset about it too.

Bloody hilarious.

I totally agree with you VL... Bunch of nobs... Its like a chain reaction - one swerves, or moves funny and suddenly the whole gaggle (what a group of cyclist called? are even flouro jack ass cyclists still called this?). And once theyre in front of you, they move at the pace of a sloth on roofies.

What pisses me off the most is when you are rolling up to a red light and some stopped traffic managing your speed, you are about to filter through the cars when, bam, some dick on a hybrid cuts you up then thinks twice about going through the gap (that quite francly and fucking bus could fit through) and slams on the brakes. Que a polite telling off from me, I then recive a 'fuck off' from them, I carry on being polite wich just makes them more angry. When the lights then turn they go hell for leather in the biggest gear they can. The rage they then experience when I cruse past with a nice 'ride safly' or 'have a good day' is amazing.
