Spotted...

Chap with a blue Ribble 753, walking past the Approach Tavern with I think a laundry-drying frame over his shoulder.

To who ever shouted "do a skid" at me about an hour ago. thank you.

I think it was Edscoble but cant be sure.

Not me, was in Clerkenwell all day.

This thread is not a speed dating service you know

Icebergfix (Jordan) at 14 riding Andys new Brooklyn like a cheap ho, the scared look on your face when I pretended to throw my bike onto yours..... priceless ;)

Edscoble walking his Bob Jackson in bloomsbury as i pulled up to comment on how nice the build turned out. my apologies for accosting you.

That can only have been me. Was it this morning that I was yelling at the people getting out of the car without looking? I'm rather embarrassed if you overheard me.

Haha. I was waiting to turn right into Leigham Vale in my <---- mode and you cruised down to the front of the queue opposite and planted yourself nicely at the front of both lanes.
You'd have got away with the yelling incident if you'd kept quiet :)

That's my manor, where do you live mate?

Welling (one fgss hill) but been working in 'The High' if you know it. Big block of flats running from Nandos to Kwik Fit. Also worked a lot over the last year in Staplefield Close opp the ghost bike.

on the way to the forum football over clissold park i stopped to consult google maps as i was a little lost and some guy on a dolan track with campy pista wheels, deda stem, drops, no brakes, cleats.. but the rider was wearing trainers stopped to have a chat with me.
after a 5 or so minute chat he said he got his bike for 300 on ebay and lives in hackney..
if i'm honest the bike looked hot and the guy was not someone who you would imagine riding fixed.

I saw the same guy and bike outside Tesco on Morning Lane the other day. Agreed, about the bike not really fitting the individual.

i saw you just as you turn right off of oxford street by primark then again at the end of the road by the petrol station near baker street station.
I did a skid but think you might have been round the corner by then.

That was me. I was on my way from Wests to St John's Wood.

I would have shouted it earlier but you were too fast for me :-)

JimBilly spotted me as I was passing The Foundry this morning.

Jolly nice to see you and have a brief chat, dear sir.

Back on the bike?

Fuck that. :)

i forgot how good this thread is. fred, miss socks - i killed a man, got caught, interrogated, tried and sentenced.... and then i relaxed with a tea afterwards while writing a paper in the turkish cafe.

spotted julio on essex road this morning and had a nice ride together into central, lovely to see cake for a quick wave as we turned onto theobald's.

and dan jdsh - i think, it happened so fast - on king henry's walk yesterday afternoon, sans bic cap.

Julio passing the duck pond in Hyde Park this very morning.

Just off there now to get my arse chewed off. Damn plasterter got carried away and plastered the landings, carpets, stairs, front doors, the lot. Hopefully he got some on the walls too.

Polish is he?

Easy tiger!

Back on the bike?

Fuck that. :)

Been riding in since Wednesday....

...slowly, very slowly.

Irene bought me some Sudacream which was very nice of her and very necessary.

Is your gooch similar in look and consistency to steak haché then Clive?

Andy, if it weren't for that particular comparison I would be hailing my love of steak haché right now..

Hey man! You mentionned it first in the other thread, but it was funny to see you yesterday evening as I was on my motorbike...
A beautifull scene of love spreading on London's streets, a fixed gear rider shacking hands and talking to a mortorcyclist!

Szia!

Loic

Luckily it is behind me and out of view. I was sitting in court this morning on a hard wooden bench and noticing how sore and itchy it all was. I fared better than most however. One guy tried out a new saddle (why?) and lost all of the skin off one buttock. He had to withdraw.

You need to air it, although I'd suggest that court is not the best place to do this. Savlon works well too.

What type of fool does a 5 day, 1000 km event on a new saddle? (Wasn't hippy was it?) ;p

No, hippy's arse is still lovely and smooth.

My problem came whan I left out a new tub of Assos creme ready to be packed but my wife kindly put it safely away but forgot where. I used Savlon on the ride in its place and that worked well. It's just that the event was so long that even the best precautions were not enough. No lasting damage and my rump will be ready for the rigours of Wessex in a week's time.
