  • Cafewanda and PaulR, in a cafe in Rochester, right now.

  • Loic just now on Albany Street, Deptford. I was foot pedding and didn't realise it was you until I was through the crowds. Your geared bike totally threw me!

    Retrospective hearty greetings!

  • Didn't want to shout across the road, but i saw the lovely Jacqui in some discomfort hobbling into Sainsbury East Dulwich. Hi, hope you're back on the bike soon!

    And troutio, later in the same ride.

  • Aha, was it troutio on the specialized? I admired his feet-off-the-pedals descent on one part of the ride. I was please to see a number of fixed or singlespeed riders this morning, including the might 'teef. But where was Balmain??

    I had the wrong saddle for this ride - a B17 does not combine well with my posterior for those long spinny descents and it resulted in (a) the back end of the bike making some not very pretty noises as I tried to get the revs up and (b) rather more collateral damage to my behind than would have been the case with the Rolls that I'd taken off the bike last night.

    Anyway, great to see you itsbruce, and that Gazelle is gorgeous, even if it took me several hours to appreciate the white/purple co-ordination going on there.

  • adoubletap cycling along webber street around 5pm and BigDaddyWayne at Oak Cycles workshop.
    Pleasure to see you!

  • Me on the Bianchista blog #boastpost

    Most excellent t-shirt there.

    Looks shopped to me...

  • Dammit and lady in his turbo-box next to me in traffic on the m23. Ignoring my wavings of forum cap, hrumph.

  • An all-chrome low-rider with huge chopper handlebars, heading down Coldharbour Lane past Brixton Arcade.

  • rocksteady yesterday in Broadway Market. Great to see you!

  • I believe I saw Sumo, Fox and EEI (?) at different times in lmnh over the weekend. Didn't say hi as I wasn't 100% sure...

  • ^ I think i saw you at lmnh yesterday too :)

    Balls! We were both keeping our eyes open for interesting bikes-on-cars, cannot believe we missed you, soz.

    Which car were you in, and where was the tandem?

  • tandem was being vanned back separately. I was in the back seat of a tiny blue aygo, at times directly in front of you, then to your left, then to your right. there was an idiot in a red corsa behind you weaving all over the place that was freaking my driver out. at one time we were alongside but I wasn't allowed to shout DAS :(

  • pretty sure i spotted skydancer this morning heading south at the bottom of highgate westhill/swains. i was heading up for a few laps of the twin hills. he did a "i recongnise that face" sort of look (i was disguised as a cyclist) which turned into a big grin when i gave him a judean people's front style salute. hello chap!

  • waved to konijn on oxford street on friday. she smiled but looked a bit confused... i was riding the colnago.

    did a loud "DO A SKID!!!" today (sunday) at a bloke riding a nice metalic blue mercian with barber pole seat tube whilst driving a street van on mile end road (i think it was). i was heading west him east. i think i scared the shit out of him! he looked worried!

  • spotted jacksandwich and another poloist who i don't know (i think! apologies if i've just forgotten) on blackfriars road yesterday. had a chat but couldn't dawdle, i had a rained out BBQ in dalston to hit up

  • ^hiya! twas i. we met in the regent last week very briefly, but don't sweat it.
    see you at the ABC tourney.

  • who did a spotted at me today on tooley street at the lights?

    edit: also spotted the dashing mr cupcakes, nice little rapid ride in there. monday legs ftw!

  • spotted, girl with pink helmet on light green kona fixed by Euston station, getting dominated by a double decker, cheer up! you looked so sad.

  • Last week, zooming up towards Marylebone road, was one of those recumbent speed record type bikes...

    Made a fantastic noise.

  • Girl on a metallic greenish-blue fixed or ss frame, turning off Flaxman road and under the railway bridge, towards the Minet estate. You turned left onto Minet Road and I, about 10 seconds behind you, turned right. When I was waiting at the lights at the 5-way junction, to cross from Lilford Road to Loughborough Road, I was suprised to see you reappear, heading north. You could save yourself a couple of minutes each day by turning right onto Minet road, because you can avoid the lights altogether by dodging up Claribel Road. All the cool kids who cycle commute from Loughborough Junction through the Minet estate in a northerly direction do it.

  • This thread is getting a bit "spotted HotBread on Tooley St"...

    Not complaining, just observing.

  • I don't actually work I just ride up and down tooley street all day, pausing at each end long enough to put up a couple of posts on my iphone and then it's back to it.

  • Bumped into a forumenger on the Hipster Highway around Farringdon Yo Sushi on Saturday. You were on a beautiful Hetchins and I was on a beaterish Carlton, sweating in my waterproof. Your forum name included a Y and a 7 but i forget the rest.

    Nice to meet you sir.
