I was in 14 Bikes & Sons on the weekend to see a man about a dog, when what did I see rolling up to the front door, but a scratched but pretty red, white and chrome SS fixie Track rare!!
It was the very bike we were discussing saving a few weeks back, abandoned outside Tesco in Shoreditch, and tragically picked for all it's worth, until finally it was removed altogether.
I asked matey where he got it from, sugaring the pill with 'nice frame pal', all that, and he said he bought it from some dodgy bloke (his words), but I didn't catch the rest, bit of an accent, and I was distracted by his waxy Barbour jacket and loafers (natch).
Looks like our red white and chrome beauty has lived to ride again. Shame some profiteering scamp has made a few dirty pounds in the process.
