  • I'm sure most of wouldn't need to guess :)

  • just removed a tyre using forks out of the kitchen, staying down with my nodder brothers and sisters yall

  • Forks? I always used to use spoons.

  • I want another road bike...

  • Carbon!

  • I looked at the course for the tour de france today and thought, "doesn't look* that* hard". then they started riding...

  • i want a brompton

  • I think most riser bars look fucking horrible, especially on lo pro's..

    and I think that people who ride brakeless in London are idiots

  • and I think that people who ride brakeless are idiots

    Get a grip!

  • of my brake lever? :)

    Who do you feel is the greater the greater idiots?

    The "no braks" fixie skidderz or who bomb through traffic willy nilly or the fully brakeless BMXers who nip along half on road (often wrong way/wrong side) and through pavements/pedestrian areas?

  • and I think that people who ride brakeless in London are idiots

    Still need to get a grip. If you know what you're doing, there is absolutely nothing wrong with riding a brakeless bike in London.

  • umm.. both are stupid. Though I suppose that at least if you're fixed you have some kind of stopping mechanism.

    Having ridden a lot of dirt jump on mountain bikes I have a great deal of respect for people riding brakeless bmx.. takes balls, especially when riding transitions. Not on the road though...nonono

  • @max, each to his own. I like not using my brake, but I like having it there for those brown trouser moments..

    Except you can't stop as quickly, nor can you ride as quickly because it takes you longer to slow down.

  • Mick...

  • You can't argue any of those points, i'm not saying anyone who does it is silly, but those two statements are true.

  • my bike got stolen a few weeks back, i still use the fahg that got chopped through just with a bit more cleverly placed tape. it looks good as new...
    i was asked by oriental touristy couple near york hall if i was a courier while locking up my bike. i said i wasnt but i secretly took it as a compliment.
    this is my second post, i cant wait to escape the nursery.

    Stereotyping much. I ride a brakeless BMX and commute on it too, Doesn't mean that I ride on pavements or through pedestrian areas though.

    You should post the details of your bike in the stolen bikes thread

    Also, how did they get through a kryptonite fahg?

  • circular disc saw

  • ...yesterday i endo-kangarooed over my bars after slamming my front brake on too hard to avoid smacking into the back of a cab that stopped at a zebra crossing in front of me.

    i landed on my feet with my bike unscathed too. but looked like a bit of a james blunt to the surrounding spandex brigade, alas.

  • I confess that when I first got a computer, I didn't know how to do a quotation mark so would just do two apostrophes...

    ''Like this''... rather than "Like this".

    I did it for a few years as it stuck with habit. It didn't exactly take me long to figure out how to do a quotation mark.
