Spotted in Manchester...

Ste on his mountainbike at the palace

I saw Stephen too he's a cycling whore.

Geoff butlers mine man, gary fishers my house mates!

Some fucking useless tool drafting me with centimeters to spare through rush hour today, on a fucking hybrid.

Don't shout at me about holding my line when it's pissing it down and I'm doing about 10mph and trying not to get doored. If you want to chaingang, fuck off to your club meet, I'm just trying to get home in one piece. Cunt.

Just now, a guy on a silver frame with white bullhorns suavely giving the finger to two lads in a Peugeot 106 outside Whitworth Gallery

some guy on a black Fuji outside central library yesterday and some guy on a light blue track bike outside central library again today.

Black Fuji with a tri-spoke? Thats me.

Spotted whilst on club ride today:

Charge Plug in potty helmet in Gatley

Brown Langster wearing Blue jacket & cap on Palentine

White Dolan rider in Green Jacket turning off Barlow Moor onto Paletine

bike locked up outside Eastern Bloc nr Keep Pedaling. Whole frame was wrapped in hazard tape, noticed a sticker on the front 'Not as bad as it looks'

Spotted, plenty of bitter Man Yoo fans. Although maybe not around Manchester.

^ all on the train from Sunderland to the South?

^^Gah, was doing a good job of avoiding any give-away source on what happened so I could watch MOTD naively. Popped in here for no reason whatsoever, thought it would be safe. Not looked at football thread, Twitter or the news. On reflection, a Manchester thread wasn't a bright selection. I will learn from this.

You didn't hear the fireworks, horns or screaming neighbours? I don't even follow football but knew what had happened from the noise next door.

On the spot front. Tricross single in SS mode with rear rack and seriously mucky chain locked up in the middle of Levy.

Sylwia riding past Common yesterday evening

2 guys on matching carbon Dolans outside Oyster bar, both brakeless with bullhorns on Saturday night, and then saw one of them again locked up outside the Met in West Didsbury on Sunday afternoon.

Luke (not carbon) and justin (carbon dolan seta) justins just moved back to manchester, he lived hear years ago

james hull, gavin chapman, paddy gomulski, karl owen. manchester road/chorlton. all spotted...

i saw DistortAmp and his cinelli riding friend in fallowfield yesterday around six

Excellent track stand at Barlow Moor Rd / Princess Parkway lights this morning - Black Fixed with Yellow Trim & rider with Yellow Jacket. Chapeau.

..spot, was riding carefully as my lockring came off on the way home and was freewheeling for a little bit, and Edinburgh cycles wouldn't lend me a lock ring tool to fix it....

haha craig u stalker. =)

some dude on a blue fixie/SS who looked at me whilst at the traffic lights near the Aquarium. I'm pretty sure he laughed at my lack of foot retention and brakes, although I can't be sure

Also saw Adam riding back from Polo, I assume after he had realised that nobody had bothered to turn up... Sorry I ignored you Adam, I only realised it was you after I had ridden past :)

Saw a guy on a single speed with just a front brake coasting through birchfields park on my way to an exam yesterday

Scot 's bike at mmu

Girl on a giant road bike short blonde hair green jumper. Keeping better pace than me all along Oxford road.
