Names and faces to bikes

You gotta admit though, it's a good feeling when you're ID'd and you insist you're of legal age and have a little battle with the shop assistant until they refuse, and then you pull out your ID and they look all sheepish and keep apologising and you think HAH WHO'S THE STUPID ONE NOW!

I was kicked out of 3 bars in the East Village for having no id. The last bouncer told me I needed to go home and grab it because if the po po caught me in a bar or on the street with no ID I would be arrested.

I only seem to get ID'd when I don't have any ID with me.

And I don't like people getting in between me and my booze. I don't like it at all.

if they caught you in a bar with no ID you probably wouldn't get arrested, they'd probably lose their license though..

I always look quite smug when they're wrong..

You're not the only one... me too...

I think they were implying that you needed to be carrying id at all times. I dont think the fact that I was in a bar was the point. Having said that, law of averages dictates that I would be in a bar.

First time posting in this thread for me. Having had my Lemond Filmore snatched a few months back by some little poindexter, I decided to splurge some cash and build up this little beauty. I BLOODY LOVE THE THING.

And here for your amusement is the face behind the wheels:

Looks cool.

But not entirely true on the leg measurement, your not supposed to have your leg bent as such, but it's important not to let your knee lock as well (this created more work for your knee).

Lots of research you can do with this, but it is important if you don't want to have to have knee surgery before your thirty.

A good way to get the correct leg extention (ish everyones different) is:
Put the heal of your foot on the pedal when at the lowest point, your leg should then be locked straight with your foot flat and your hips should not be rocked over to compensate.
This means when the ball of your foot is over the pedal axle your leg should just have popped back from it's locked position and your foot should be pointing slightly down.
I find this is a pretty good place to start people off and can then micro adjust from there.

Nice hint, Tim, I like it. I'll give it a go at the shop today.

Now I do like that. if you could get those yellow stickers off it'd b perfect.... until the white gets dirty

THe heel and pedal thing works a treat.

Yes the stickers have gone now, quite rightly. I'm hoping the white gets dirty in a way so the rims might match the 'white' san marco bought from ebay.

^ Nice hue on that Robert Jackson

OK, here is my fixie beater. I'd be tempted to do something about the paintwork and rust but you can see by the saddle height that the frame is way too big for me. So I'm going to change the frame soon. But its done me well enough over the years and its not a bad frame at that, even if it does still have the crappy rear wheel on that it had when I got it. Gear ratio is well twiddly, something that I'll change once I've got used to cycling again.

And since photos of me are few and far between... I'm going to go with this one.

you look like a james bond villain +1!

I agree with Jordan, you do haha

More BDSM aficionado than Bond Villan, no?

are you getting strangled/muffled by your boyfriend?

Sssh, now that would be telling!

Nothing wrong with a bit of pain play.
