  • I like to be 100% aware of my surroundings at all times... Call me crazy...

    Agreed. +1.
    I'm too paranoid to wear headphones in the street or traffic I guess.

  • Yeah there are a few about... I assume this is just a sweeping generalisation?

    I ride with tunes and according to tiswas at least "didn't ride like a cunt"

    Is that gonna be your epitaph?

  • I did see you after you'd shouted, I was on a mission for Aram, to get his shoe's and keys from the coach and horse's for the ride from the wedding to the pub. Where were you last night?

    dude you were going lazer fast didnt think you noticed...

    flopped it hard, wish I had come down and shown some love

  • Not really, cyclists are generally worse than drivers when it come to riding on the road.

    but then, even a slighty poorly driven car is a massive danger in comparison to a wobbly noddy.

  • "Not really, cyclists are generally worse than drivers when it come to riding on the road."

    I think you'll find cyclists are generally better than drivers when riding on the road. Drivers struggle to get their cars on a normal saddle for one.

    I might roll with it for a bit, see how it pans out

  • Some weapons outside Evans in town, changing their inner tubes.

  • Bianchi Pista outside London Graphics Centre, with MTB style bar ends and a white rear Air-o-spoke. FFS.

    yum..

  • Mr Wigan Will on Caledonian Road this morning, looking dashing.

    Looks can be deceptive. I picked up my windproof Buffalo top off the floor this morning having dumped it there next to my bag yesterday. I notice it is wet and clammy and think, balls, I didn't dry it out. Oh well, too late now and it'll soon dry out when I'm riding. So I set off and I think to myself, hold on, I wasn't wearing this in the rain yesterday. And then, as I do start to warm up and begin to sweat I realise: it wasn't rain that made it wet. The cat has pissed on it. And now the smell is beginning to rise. But, it is really too cold to take it off. This is going to be a fun day's work.
    A couple of hours later, having done as much as I can to avoid getting too close to anyone, I am on my way home with a sore knee, still wearing the top and still smelling noticeably of cat pee. It's a glamorous life being a courier.

  • ^jebus.

    gutted.

  • having a cigarette out of my window in east dulwich and saw a fixed rider go past, i gave a half hearted 'do a skid' and the rider looked around slightly perplexexed and kept on going, anyone on here?

  • Probs too late now but I caught up with a guy riding fixed in Stevenage on Saturday. Chucked a few words at eachother. He said he was just flying by and was cycling back to south London. Anyone from here? Didn't really see his bike. Think it was surly?? Massive bag and shades!

  • I passed Condor this morning, and I notice a HHSB that look like those thick TT Leader but with 'WITCH' in a horrible but colourful type on the down tube.

  • North side of Blackfriars bridge this morning... a cyclist on a MTB going ape at a cab driver. Not sure what the altercation was about, and to be fair it didn't appear obvious when stuff like
    "Come on, lets go to the police station;
    What? I can't understand you, didn't go to college. Is that why you drive a cab?; 2 + 2 is 4 idiot" was coming from the cyclists mouth. Very school yard and entertaining.

  • This morning, 08.35ish, Kisu_shimo whizzing past on Camberwell New Road on his lovely new bike!

  • [FONT=Arial][SIZE=3]This morning at about 9:30 towards the Chelsea end of the Embankment heading west, a bloke riding fixed. Didn’t notice what bike you were on as I was too distracted by your head gear, a rather fetching WWII German helmet (which looked like it had been painted purple). I waved a bit late so I don’t think you saw me I think you were concentrating on the traffic. That or thinking about annexing Austria…[/SIZE][/FONT]

  • Some guy, by Loughborough Junction this morning on an orange Mercian, dreads, with one of those seat saver lock things cleverly weaved into his bag straps. You were clearly more awake than I was as you sped off from the lights while I was still yawning Meaning I didn't have the chance for a hello. If your on here very nice looking bike sir.

  • Sat. El Clefty in Tootin'.

    Must have been on the way to the Wedding with Kattt where were you?

  • I think I spotted Clefty at the E&C roundabout this morning;

    Red Villiers frame - check
    Red Aerospoke - check
    Swrve Milwaukee - check

    Couldn't be sure though as whoever it was underneath all that clothing only had eyes visible. :-)

    Defo me, I was also wondering if it was you as you were also under several layers
    I did smile and acknowledge but obviously none of that was visible under the bat mask and all you probably saw was an evil stare.

  • Curvy all black lo-pro / Hed 3 up front.
    Ootside The English Shopping Co, Wells St.
    8.15pm y'day.
    Scheriously, schexy.

    on my way to the shire of wilt

    I've chatted to that guy a few times, nice fella... He's been riding that bike for aaaaaaages...
