Spotted...

Guy repairing a puncture(?) on his beautiful white Giant road frame this evening on the south side of the outer circle.

Lovely rig pal!

Thought it was a TT bike? He seemed to be doing more standing around than anything else. What were you riding?

corny newington green road

Saw a chap yesterday riding a Bianchi track frame, white Spok on the back, short travel suspension forks at the front and a red Ringle Zooka MTB stem from "back in the day", it was awesome.

Triathlete.. Probably blown through all three of his C02 carts not knowing how to use them and waiting for wife to pick him up in the X5..

Ouch.

while sitting in a restaurant on upper street spotted a rather lovely white bridgestone anchor with rear deep white wheel and risers i think. 'nybody?
also, guy walking around as with a red chesini track with porter bars and neon blue toeclips.

I hope I saw middleofnowhere in Dalston before. If not, me and a stranger had a moment where we thought we recognised each other, nodded, and one said to the other 'alright Matt, how's it going?'

Haven't been anywhere near Dalston today. Hope the stranger enjoyed the moment you shared.

Ah shit.

I hope I haven't insulted anyone else I know by making them think I recognised them, and then giving them a different name.

If it wasn't someone I know at all, then he definitely seemed to recognise me. It was definitely a moment.

Wouldn't worry Tom, could well be you had a speech impediment/mild brain damage and were actually saying "alright, mate"...

It was definitely a moment.
Yup, deffo sounds like love at first sight.

I hope he went home thinking London has suddenly become much more friendly, and decided to pass on good will to all he encountered as well.

I'm going to start using 'alright, Matt' as my greeting to everyone I know who I see on a bike now. DAS is passé and elitist anyway.

"Do a nod!" would be so much more inclusive

Somebody who looked a lot like Sir Edwin Scoble, only on a black fixed/ss frame with not a panier in sight, wearing a green cap, on Great Ormond Street at around 5:30

No.

Stop trying to stalk me.

Yeah, Bruce, start to successfully stalk Ed.

Last night: Rode over London Bridge and up Bishopsgate with a guy on a red Feather. I was sweating my ass off in a tee shirt and he was wearing tights under his shorts, a hoody and I kid you not - a wool beanie under his helmet! You sir must be air conditioned. Hi if you're on here, it was nice chatting to you.

BMMF on the Euston Road just now, helpfully not only wearing a forum cap but also a BMMF-branded messenger bag. Nice to meet you.

Stop trying to stalk me.

Yeah, Bruce, start to successfully stalk Ed.

Jonny again last night, heading down towards Aldgate.

blonde haired girl / woman with two punctures outside evans victoria last night. i was fixing a puncture on my dolan. thanks for offering your tire levers. i thought about saying 'are you on here' but not sure that asking random women if they're on a forum is good practice. if you are here on, hello

Nobody could possible be insulted by being called Matt, he (presumably) wouldn't think you'd forgotten his name, he'd just assume you'd "upgraded" him.

I hope he went home thinking London has suddenly become much more friendly, and decided to pass on good will to all he encountered as well.

Do it often enough and you are bound to get one right eventually, even a stopped clock tells the right time twice a day.

This morning spotted in Shoreditch, a whole raft of wankers on shiny new fixies jumping reds like there was no tomorrow. I saw a few epic bells on the way past Liverpool St, I was literally agog at the fuckwittery. Be careful out there kids; the fair weather hipsters are out in force.

Betty and I saw a man with a forum cap in Clissold Park yesterday evening. We thought about DAS'ing but it seemed inappropriate as he was pushing a geared bike and was busy talking to a lady.

Belated hello to you, we were the two girls sitting on the grass giving your wicker picnic hamper extremely lustful looks.

NurseHoliday, yesterday morning, zooming through Kentish Town!
And again KT, 8.30am, was it you Cornelius Blackfoot?

Euph?
