Spotted...

Honestly, was fucking awful. With some 11/12yo kid with a greyish frame about 47cm, seatpost out about an inch, with mint green deep V's, brakes on front and rear with no brake surface!?

Skullhead 'Ted'

what a great word i haven't heard in ages...

never really worked out what it meant, some mates of mine used to talk about 'Acid Teds', meaning kind of hooligan types who'd got loved up.

Exactly that. Ted is just another name for a pillerk, plonker, cock'ead!

Was in BLB and some Ted walked in with a white 'London' Langster with risers but check this......

White Arrospokes on front AND rear! Why oh why......!? :-$

He wants a bike that looks like a perverted oldschool BMX but finds the real thing too uncomfortable to ride? I imagine the get-up mentioned looks rather Playmobil.... super.[/quote]

You mean this?

Exactly like that!

Silver/chrome Bianchi Pista chained to a lamp post opposite the Stonemasons Arms, Hammersmith at around 18:45 tonight.

YOU'VE GOT THE WRONG NIGHT!

I spotted Emily's bike outside Clapham Sainsbury's this evening. Was going to hang around and wait to say hello but thought it might be weird and also my hot chicken was going cold!

I am typing on a german keyboard, it's hilariously difficult!

sorry chandra i was probably in another world

jon ma3k whitehall, doubled up by parliament and a pleasure it was not being squeezed against the terrorist barrier for a change it was too.

First day back cycling in a couple of weeks, saw Mouse and Hippy within about 5 seconds of each other on Holland Park Ave.
@Hippy: you actually looked like you were asleep!

saw some fat fncker on a twatster going through ealing this morning, he also looked asleep.

I see no-one on my way in. I'll have to divert my route via Holland Park in the future I think. What time do you guys pass there?

Hey mashton, I was shunning you with my handlebars ;-P

Who said hi to me at on Saturday around Hackney/Clapton way? Sorry I was in a complete daze, just moved to the area and was looking for my turning. Hello!

velocity boy I see no-one on my way in. I'll have to divert my route via Holland Park in the future I think. What time do you guys pass there?

About 8:15 normally. I'm heading west at that time so I don't get caught in the commute-oton.

i thought you worked from home, VB

Nah, Bloomsbury. I only work from home when I want to, but I'd miss the commute too much so am in the office almost every day.

Passed a dude on a white Miyata about 8.45 on Clerkenwell Rd this morning - sometimes it's so hard to say hello to people if you can't catch their eye... Hi!

saw Rasta-fixed man on his colourful bike again this morning in Kennington, always brightens my day

I didn't know you worked in Bloomsbury, that's my area. Where do you work? Mouse works there too, in MediaCom, at the end of my road :-)

We should have a Bloomsbury beer.

photoben Hey mashton, I was shunning you with my handlebars ;-P

Git ;-)

Hope you're settling in OK?

31trum.. shortly after some bird heading west on fUxbridge.. then RaphaBoyMouse.. then about 200 fixers on Old St.

I reckon the trick to spots is to sleep in and leave when all you lazy cnuts leave :P
