  • I've got at least 60 gears in the garage. Might have to start using them more.

    Just tape them to your bike, all over the frame and wheels, that will help.

    Still have you in a race, mind...

    uh ohhhhhhhhhhhh

  • Today I handed in my notice.

    New job , new town in the new year.

  • whoops, didn't realise this was the Norwich forum.

    My Grandparents are from Norwich....?

  • Slid off at Carrow Road on my way to Colins. No major damage - bit of a mark on the new saddle which I'm fucked off about. Anyone else had an 'off' in this weather?

  • Nope i just stick to main roads

  • I've been ok so far just ride in the middle of the road more. Don't lean!

  • Ride straight and fast. I rode to work everyday last year when it was snowing. Only time i slipped was when i stopped at some lights right on a patch of black ice. Took fuckin ages to stamd up with rlthe bike. Would have been funny as fuck to watch.

  • Yeah, I was aware it was a bit slippery, shoulda stuck to the main road but for some reason decided to shortcut around carrow road. Kept it straight, turned carefully and only slightly, next thing was on my arse.

    I rode all last winter too, and didn't come off. Was on wider slickish mtb tyres though.

  • Nice. When leaving my mate Pats the other night thought id cut through Bowthorpe backstreets instead of sticking to the main road. That was a bit hairy. Though the ice was visible the random chav/ staffie combos werent forcing me to erratically hit and hope over the ice. Urrrrrrgggggghhhhhh!

  • Did you have a good time? Was it well cold? Did you make it to Cyclope?

    Also, is this for real?

    If so i think i now hate you!

  • Rapha + Paul Smith = Baller!

  • Yeah. Look mum im in the big league now!

    I wonder if Sparky ever made it back from gay Paris? Transports meant to be on the uber-shit side!

  • Just emerged from the tunnel (ooh-er, missus). Should in London in an hour or so, then on the 8.30 to Norwich.

  • back in time for polo?

    haha

  • Back at 10.45 - would be game if I didn't have work in the AM.

  • ... am in a converted barn in Essex taking three exams. Including one that begins with a role-play interview with my ex-boss. Just finished a 2,200 word exam. One down, two to go.

  • Then polo soon bro?

  • Not on a Tuesday - still in Cromer, so don't get back to Norwich until 7 - 7.30. By the time I've eaten and got on a bike it's all over, plus I have to get up silly-early.

  • Greetings from Myanmar!

    This country is feeling brakeless fixed gear bikes in a big way, but not really through choice I don't think. Most of them have some kind of shop/tea stand attached to the front. Going to borrow a bike from one of the drivers at the house today and cruise about town, they all have bar brakes and moustache bars, they look excellent.

  • Today I overhauled my MKS Sylvan Pedals. They were really clicking badly. A big tub of white spirit for an overnight soak, then clean up and regrease. Super smooth now. Chuffed.

  • Today I purchased Colr's Bowery

  • At first glance I thought you'd acquired a brewery. Which would have been beyond epic.
