  • Selim, end of Gerrard St, Monday 5ish...

    aw, i never get to spot selim! he seems like the white whale...well, except that I am not stalking him to harpoon him.

    Dammit. Signed in as Aram all over the place because he signs himself into everything on both Safari and Firefox instead of leaving me one browser on each computer. : (

    I'm in your browser?!

    Check if he signed in into his PayPal or online banking and teach him a lesson.

  • guy pushing white moulton, fixed, along newington green road on saturday evening.
    would love to have a go on your bike mate

  • Brakeless, flip-flop wearing, earphones in, shinny new black fixed, black Aerospok, orange spokes on back, swearing at all the cars going passed you. Wobbling about allover the place, going toward the city from Liverpool st.

    DUDE, be careful! get a brake and some shoes on your feet! chill out!
    you must have just dropped alot of ££££ on that.

  • ^ a white Moulton, fixed! That would be a great bike to leave in the middle of the road at Newington Green. Possibly the most over-rated bike ever manufactured?

  • crabtree (i think!) on his way up green lanes, as i left work. hello! pretty sure i saw a few other people on my trip back to the wick last night, but can't for the life of me remember who/what/where! oh, the dude on the lovely wilkinson frame, morning lane. regularly spot that bike (and presumably rider) in tesco. heh.

  • This morn, at the little cycle-path-of-death-across-pavement at Bow Street / Waterloo Bridge north. Waiting at lights looking north I see a ladybike and ladyrider crossing the pavement, presumably responding to their green bicycle traffic light correctly. A guy coming up the strand, probably just making his green light before it changed, or gambling on that amber light, smacking straight into her, in a comedy ooh-I'm-braking-in-time-oh-no-maybe-not-SMACK endo manoevre. I had to laugh, though I shouldna. I think the phasing on that cycle light is a little bit keen, as I've nearly hit bikes and buses a few times when i've been using that cycle-way and been prompt about rolling across thhe junction when my light's green.

    Oh, and some nice chatty people (non-fixie-fiddler) in Southwark this morning along the Union Street path and The Cut who helped make my first ride in about a week-and-a-half pleasant.

  • clefty at the lights in kennington near the tommyfield pub this morning.. 8.15ish, hello! only realised it was you after about a minute

  • Smiley Smiley Nhatt this morning. And then the red Ciocc ss conversion and it's maker on a black dolan , that's in Current Projects, just now on Wheatsheaf Lane. The ciocc deserves gears!

    Oh and one lurid "fixie" in Bath last week.

  • fluff: waterloo bridge. nice to see you again.

    also: me, bag falling off my back somewhere around new cavendish street. not a fun experience.

  • A new bike cafe on tower bridge road?! it didnt look great, its walls were covered with foffa bikes

  • the red Ciocc ss conversion and it's maker on a black dolan , that's in Current Projects, just now on Wheatsheaf Lane. The ciocc deserves gears!

    Apologies for not saying howdy, didn't realise what you said 'til we were down the road. It does deserve gears (and drop handlebars), but I figure I'm maintaining yet another bike, so it's staying simple (and she wanted a sit-up position).

  • Nice note: PiQuE on Shoreditch High - nice to meet you, cheers for the saddle

    Bad note: someone in Cycle Surgery Holborn in the queue in front of me about 6.30 this eve getting a bit narky and hmphing, swearing and tutting a lot. Small 'tache, tweed cap, mission workshop backpack, generally acting like he was gracing us and the shop with his presence.

    When asked to move his bike from leaning against their stock to the racks at the door by the security guard he loudly said "there's no room on his precious rack, does he think I'm gonna leave 3 and a half grands worth of bike outside without a lock, errrmm I don't think so!" Congrats everyone heard, you spanked loads of cash on a bike, well fucking done. Maybe an idea to buy a lock too, I hear they're useful in London. Bike was brushed aluminium with carbon forks, mavic rims I think and drop bars with black tape. Cheers for looking at me and my admittedly fixie skidderesque bike like we were pieces of shit as I left too- nice attitude.

  • ^ I wonder WHO that could have been?!? ^

  • How can he managed to spend 3 and a half grand on a fixed wheel bicycle? especially an alu one with mavic rims and no brakes?

    Graham, do you know anything about this?

  • haha i was just wondering whether he is some kind of forum big dog. I should add as a postscript that I should apologise to him too, when he nipped off to put his bike in the rack, I took my turn in the queue while he was away, sorry about that, was in a bit of a rush and thought it'd be done very quickly, that probably had a fair amount to do with the evils I got when I left...

  • Bike was brushed aluminium

    brushed aluminium, teeeheee - the cycling ambassador spreads two-wheeled joy and sunbeams around london's famous london once again…

    [I think you'll find DJ's bike is made of twatonium]

  • it was a quick look, it was brushed sthg, titanium makes more sense :)

  • fuck me, was going to post spotted newest member Schwampy
    and ask if he is the famous one who was at Twyford Downs,
    then,
    went back onto index and it was another newest member,
    then, get this,
    went back onto index page and it was ANOTHER newest member,
    they are joining faster than ants
