no lock was in corridor has been safe for fucking weeks and some muppet has just left the fucking door wide open...
sick as a pig.
Can people keep there eyes peeled around the wick though I would have thought it will end up around dalston, clapton as it would be stupid to get rid of it around the immediate vicinity, maybe bow?
I will go to brick lane on sunday, though I don't think it will be sold there... I think it will just float around for a while.
it's very distinctive because of the crank and has the original french cycling club sticker on the head tube....It hasn't turned a screw in 20 years so I think it will remain as a whole, thats why I hadn't really done anything to it, it has been steeped in easing oil for the last 6 months week after week it was starting to free up as well!!!
sort of gutted and almost resigned as I have so many other bikes at the minute and don't ride it regularly, though my mate that has been borrowing it regularly over the last 6 months had fell in love and was in the process of buying it. wankers.
the fucking wheels I had just dibsed were for this, i wanted to swap the ultegras out......mirroring you twice ed...have wheels and no bike...meh.
Where in the Wick was that from? I'll keep my eyes peeled round here for you
