Welcome

Hi all - another newbie here.

Have been riding a Brother Cycles fixie for a couple of months now and find this forum massively helpful. I live in the Bush where it seems SS & FG riders are somewhat scarce.....

Bush as in Shepherds Bush? If so, that's where i live. We are here, just hiding.

Yup - Shepherds Bush, along the Uxbridge Rd. Hope to see you around.

There are west drinks around that side, look into it as theyre a cool bunch of hipsters!

Yeah we gave up being hipsters after it went too mainstream and ASOS brought out their fixeh skidderz line

Is there an evolution from Hipsterdom?

Yup - Shepherds Bush, along the Uxbridge Rd. Hope to see you around.

Ah, pretty close to me - i'm on Goldhawk Road near the Shepherds Bush Green end. I'm sure we'll cross paths at some point!

Is there an evolution from Hipsterdom?

Yes, this is the future:

That's a waxwork in Madame Tussauds right?

That's what Pescetarianism does to you.

Hi,
I'm from France, been riding my own fixed gear for 2 months now.
I tried a fixed gear for the first time in LONDON, one year ago. I loved!

Hey all. This is Jason, from Chicago, USA. I work here for a bicycle (pedestrian and transit) advocacy organization called The Active Transportation Alliance as our bicycle safety and education specialist. I ride several different bikes, all of which are in varying states of transition, but my mainstay is a Surly Long Haul Trucker. I just joined LFGSS because I'll be visiting London the first week of September and am hoping to get some cycling done in and around the city. (If anyone has a 58cm bike they want to loan I'll be staying in the Owgan Close area [wherever that is] and promise to baby it, lock it up and always bring it inside overnight.) I just purchased a Long Haul trucker Deluxe with 26" wheels and S&S Couplers and thought I might be bringing it along, but I don't think this trip is the right one for it. In any case I'll peruse what's going on here and hope I can make it out to some bike related events while I'm in town.

hi all. names tom, work with edscoble in wimbledon. ..

hi, been here a while but i think the time has come for a proper introduction...

i'm getting more and more into this, the A21 is my new best friend. the 12 year old freedom-joy has returned in full force over the last couple of years, and there are some very nice pubs in kent that i would otherwise have never discovered. hopefully i won't do anything too stupid or annoying to the locals (here or in kent). i'm mainly here to make friends and go for bike rides, maybe even put in some time at HH once i get a saturday off work. so: hello, i'm gareth.

Did you come along to Souths Beers with Ed a few months back? If so, we've met.

Welcome!

That was John the mechanic you've met, aka is the skinny hipster (well, you are Tom!) who used to work London Bridge.
