  • yellow frame, blue rims, red hubs, being locked outside magma on Fri pm.


  • Own up.

    You park this tip next to me every day outside the Arthur Lewis building.
    Seriously.

    seen this locked outside moonlight ice cream place on Sunday, its not terrible just needs different bars and frame and wheels and....

  • Does anyone know the chap with the powder blue carbon* track bike? Lives in the Northern Quarter just up from Afflecks.

    He's got a blue anodised Thompson stem and some other nice bits, and I've met him now and again in town, but I've never seen him on any rides or anything?

    Any clues?

    *might be ally, actually, very thick tubes if so.

  • spoted a big guy this morning shaved head, raw alu frame with drops and blue bar tape, woo!

  • big guy ,ginger beard ?

    Not sure about the beard, stocky though.

    Lives next to the co-op in the Northern Quarter, I've only ever seen him wheel his bike from his front door to the co-op and back.*

    *That's not a dis, just the only time I've seen him.**

    **Kind of a dis though.

  • Morgan... do you have some kind of an obsession with him...?

  • @mechamorgan: the red bike is mine... Just moved to manchester couple of months ago... so hello...

    seems its not everyone cup of tea? no worries ;) It is my first fixed gear... not the best but it was fit on my budget in that time.

  • its creative..:)

    Apart from aesthetic concerns, which I guess is each to his own, I would recommend some more study foot retention. Straps to go with your clips, ect.

    Hi! I ride the chrome Charge that's usually outside Arthur Lewis, if you want to kick my wheels in or anything.

  • Morgan... do you have some kind of an obsession with him...?

    Don't worry Adam, you're still my number 1

    Saw you last night outside Sainsburys by the Uni, i was on a steamroller

  • yellow frame, blue rims, red hubs, being locked outside magma on Fri pm.

    That'll be me :)

  • There all coming out of the woodwork

  • spotted, with a subtle hint of sunshine, the re-emergence of the flip-flopped fixed gear riders.

    saw a quiffed guy with a chrome Charge riding along Thomas St earlier, Mechamorgan?

  • Thanks for the advice Morgan... I got everything fairly cheap to be fair and got a bianchi pista frame waiting to be build. So this one hopefully will be better.

    Woodrow I saw you as well... you were riding on the oxford st right when I was unlocking my bike? So, hi there...

  • Girl on a yellow frame with chopped risers, green chrome rucksack, outside the Union just before 9.

    Tall guy, shaved head getting on an older fuji track outside the union at either 10, or 11 :/

    Deffo Mechamorgan.

    A) 'saw a just with a beard on a bike so brown it looked like poo'

    A) 'saw a just with a beard on a bike so purple it looked like a bellend'

    That'd be me, I was tooling around after picking up some new running gear. Nice day for it yesterday. Next time someone spots me, give me a shout. It's been way to long since I've had bicycle discussions with anyone.

    Fucking sunshine. As soon as it warms up EVEN A LITTLE BIT all the fucking 'boho' students start sitting around on the grass and exposing their gammy toes and pasty white thighs. Seriously, it's not San Fran, get the fuck off the lawn smoking rollies in your hemp smock, you fucking pricks.

    I was cycling to Uni in the fucking rain and snow, where was your love of the outdoors then?

  • Deffo Mechamorgan.

    Ronnie I still owe you a tenner!

    damn Morgan your so hardcore, no messin

  • damn Morgan your so hardcore, no messin

    You know me bro, so fucking hXc, cycling about a mile to Uni EVERY FUCKING DAY*. I can't stand these fucking student** arseholes, fucking taking my taxpayers money*. They're all lazy bastards***** anyway.

    • 6 hours a week. I probably manage about 3 of them.
      ** definitely a student
      *** definitely an arsehole
      **** not a taxpayer, don't have any money
      ***** DEFINITELY a lazy bastard.
  • Schoooooooooooooooooooooom ... was the sound that Morgan made as he passed me locking up outside M&S at 9am this morning.

    Going so fast the only distinguishable features were a chrome frame and a quiff.

    Get your beautiful Colnago out for Nes' peaks ride on 26th this month.

  • Umm.

    That wasn't me...

    I'm now worried about an impostor...

    (you can tell cause I'm not that fast)
