Spotted PJ (I think at least, never met you but recognised the frame) on the Mall end of Regent Street heading up towards Piccadilly. This was early Thursday morning. I was coming out of Charles II Street so you didn't see me.
It's much easier to see the colour of your frame in day light than in the pictures on here, it looks black in photos.
that was me yes, i often leave earlier than that, and rarely see anyone. i commute to work around 6.40-7am, and home between 4-5. on the whole get to miss the altura-luminous-tabard-massif.
the bob jackson is my winter bike (!) at the moment.
i keep seeing a guy in marylebone high street at around 7.30 on a lovely JF Wilson.

I've done it many a time, i will usualy double lock them though if im going to be in there awhile.
i don;t think its that bad of aspot there is always people around
and usualy police walking by.knock on wood
If I thought I could leave any of my bikes locked up outside The Underworld, etc, I'd cycle down :( I need to get a beater...

just now on Theobald's road (heading towards Grey's Inn road) spotted a dude on a green langster running a front disc break. is it just me or does that seem like a slight risky thing to do?

spotted momentum with a bike with moustache bars going past oval while on the 59, a couple of hours ago. Haven't seen that bike before..
(assuming it was momentum based upon the stature and hair colour)

Last night, whilst shit faced and peering out of the Chandos window I saw three people go past, one had white Arrospok, didn't get the rest. Blame the Alpine lager

What riding a langster? Yes, Insane!
Erm... I don't get why everyone on here thinks disk brakes to be lethal/crazy. Maybe my hope is shit but I don't find it any better at stopping me than a canti'.
That said I think caliper brakes are lethal because the last time I rode a bike with one it was a case of pull the lever and hope the bike stops someday.

i met the guy who own's that crazy frame in the pub a while ago. it's white as well yeah?
he's a friend of a friend.The flanders, or the weird condor?
I want to meet the man who rides the flanders. And man is the only word for it. I'd be disappointed it he didn;t eat rocks for breakfast and shout at his food to cook it.

I believe the wierd frame is a Paris Galibier.
My father took his hand made Paris frame to australia in the fifties and in the 70s built it up to original spec, it is now sitting in my shed there waiting for me to go home and fix it.
spotted 5o/14 this morning on Lower Richmond rd me going other direction

Ace isn't it? It sounds like a fire alarm though, so people do get a bit confused. It's from the London Bicycle Repair Shop on Hatfields nr Waterloo (about 6 quid I think).
