Not me, my Spesh is grey. And I'm virtually never on the spice route.
I saw someone riding fixed very slowly in Waterloo Road this morning with bare drops and the daftest Dirty Harry brake position.
It was placed where you would put it if you had decided to run it as a teeny tiny set of hoods but then rotated round the bars so it was facing backwards with the lever pointing at the floor.
As far as I could make out you would only be able to pull the brake with your pinkie finger if riding with hands where hoods would be or with your thumb when on the drops.
