Hi all, I joined in... 2008? Well ages ago, I got myself sorted with an SE lager, rode it, loved then sold it sharpish as I went travelling for ages. I got back 2 months ago and am looking to pick up from where I left of which was.... oh yeh bikes, thats much more fun than buses and tubes! and.... wana start to learn about the things as a hobby.

Looking around for one at the mo, SimpleNL seems to post a few nice ones anyone have opinions on single speed v geared for a london runaround that might be used to cycle to Paris in summer? Good places to buy cheap ish bikes (-£300)

Things to avoid (like rare parts/brands) if looking to buy a bike that I might wana mess about with whilst learning?

Building the bike. Joining the crowd

Greetings. I'm new to London, been riding only a couple years around Boston. I'm here for at least a year for school. I've got a 2010 Globe Roll 1 (the grey/blue one, seems unavailable in the UK?) at home. If I have it shipped over, would anyone be interested in buying it? Is cycling here as dangerous as it looks from the sidewalk?

Welcome to the forum. Thank you for the good posts. Have fun and play nice.

Been lurking here for a while (I signed up after reading a rider down thread regarding a mishap I witnessed where some toe rag who nicked a fixie and promptly flung himself over the handlebars and into an ambulance).

I got a Globe Roll 1 in black earlier this year and have been riding to and from work ever since.

You guys seem to like Bodeans - I love Bodeans. I will have to join you at some point.

Another lurker here.
