Spotted...

spotted phasergunalex (again) on camden road (again) at about 8:45
nice back wheel!

Ah har! Once again...just trying to remember what i was riding this morning...must've been the dave yates, and i guess you're talking about the red tyre? Adds a flash of colour for a bit of fun :)
Were you on a bike this time?

yo momma is so fat (how fat is she?)
yo momma is so big and fat that she can get busy
With twenty two burritos, when times is tough
I seen her in the back of Taco Bel with hand cuffs
It's a sad fact - yo momma smokes crack -
She got a burnin yearnin and there's no turnin back
Her knuckles drag down to the ground when she walks
Spit comes out that bitch mouth when she talks............etc.

Absolutely classic.

easy pajamas, that was me sweating like a beast

it is all about that stretch of slickness down peckham rd.

you local?

sure is Slowbot, Brockley way. It is indeed all about that two hundred yard dash of tarmcadamed perfection....

see you again some time dude..

okay spots today - suddenly I'm noticing shit (maybe becuase I'm on my new bike)...

1) er... rather.. er..nice-lookin girl on a white frame on Lewisham Way around 6.00pm - we were both in our sunglasses and we both said hi rather uncertainly which was lovely, you must be on the forum. I'd seen you a couple of times rolling nice and smooth down Old Kent Rd of a morning but I was on my dunce's bike so had no reason to have a connection...anyway, Hi!

2) young dude round the lights on New Oxford Street on a multi-coloured roll, very nice - you shouted "Do A Skid!!!" at me - I looked flummoxed then started laughing - wasn't expecting it man, nice one...

3) TYNAN, ZIPPING PAST CENTRAL DRINKS SO WE WOULDN'T NOTICE HIM......

4) the other dude who has a multi-coloured bike that i think Andy Pancake built up - commercial st around 11.45 tonight. We nodded civilly... how's it goin man..

nope the bike is in the building stage, which is taking way way too long due to lack of funding :(
nah i was at the bus stop on the way to school and saw you crooz past...

3) TYNAN, ZIPPING PAST CENTRAL DRINKS SO WE WOULDN'T NOTICE HIM......

Where were you ? I don't actually remember going past central drinks (Lambs Conduit street?) Although I did pass through that area on the way home - are you sure it was me ?

What about me pajamas?! and after I taught you to trackstand!!! :)

I just spent an entire night's wages on a meal in a fancy farringdon restaurant. Kind of wish I went to central beers instead, it would have been cheaper.

Who here have an black (I think) IRO with metallic blue rims and a tennis ball carefully inserted in the back wheel?

Spotted ... Trixie Chix in Elle Québec.

oh asm and I thought that wasn't a spot but a date.. :(

I was going to post "asm, Greenwich Observatory, double dog with mustard and ketchup" but I thought you'd be sore.... nice jaunt today man, I practised solo tonight on the other side of the river, this time clipped in for better or worse. Only fell off twice - still clipped in of course.... lovin it!

hey how did the spiel go - you got a patron...? :)

We were so sure it was you Tynan - it was your bike. White, flouro pink deep rim, hella pricey...

.....

....have you checked your bikes tonight dude?

I saw him crossing a road at the north end of Waterloo Bridge on the Strand at like, about between 6.30 to 7, not sure why he's crossing the road when he can simply ride it across.

don't think he have seen me waiting for the red light, especially with my almost standard Bianchi Pista that half of fucking London have (note to self- must get paint remover to removed the offending Bianchi logos on the bike).

Checked, they are all there ! :)

Now that I think about it I might have cut through just the last bit of Lambs Conduit Street
after the pedestrianised bit ends ? I would have been heading North. . .

White + fluro pink rear rim sounds like me, although it's not really deep, kind of in between a deep and a shallow rim (DT Swiss 1.1).

You should have stopped me and asked to see what was in my bag, I might have had time for a pint . . .

we tried to but somebody was going too ruddy fast. Little beige beanie if I remember too, lord knows why that was essential in today's scorching heat...

didn't you hear Corny shout out "OI OOOOIIII!!!!! TYNAN!!!!"?

No you didn't you were too busy breaking the sound barrier.

Mmmm the pints were lovely too...

Yep, that sounds like me - I probably had my earphones in, most likely listening to some "totally fucked up Jazz biscuits" or the latest "Ronan Keating mash up". If I spotted you lot I would have dropped in for a pint . . . must pay more attention to what is going on outside of my head. . . .

Is the central beer boozathon just on Tuesdays ?

Only pulling yer leg buddy. :)

Well no patron, but a potential commission. She's a nice lass - at least vaguely receptive to me and my flatmates' spectacularly tangential humour.

For various reasons this mention of Waterloo Bridge pushes the Chug probability factor to about 99%.

asm I was only pulling your leg - my use of :( was ironic.. -though it would have indeed been a rather contrived and long spot seeing as there were phones involved in the setup :D

good on yer with your business head dude - to be involved in it already is surely a sign you're miles ahead of the game. Shame about the dollar outlay but as they say, spread it around to see it work ...

dogsballs taking 8th in the sprint at the Hillingdon circuit.

I'm in the building

I saw him crossing a road...not sure why he's crossing the road when he can simply ride it across..

It had been yet another long day at work and I wanted to walk as I'd sat down all day, were you in the middle of the junction? I saw a couple of couriers, one of whom was thrashing about Temple earlier on. Sorry I didn't see you, I was trying to get into the chill zone.

Velocity Boy and lady outside of the Chandos last night, good to see you, looking rather dapper!

Who was the rider going across Hyde Park at about 3ish yesterday wearing cool white sunglasses?

Where did you get them????

winston on grey's inn road last night..
heading, no doubt, to pick up another 400 custom built roller-specific bikes from Condor :)

tynan: I received neither a kiss nor a bag of boiled sweets! The only thing I did receive has left me with judicious application of Canestan.

first time my name has appeared in this thread I think.... actually on omy way to the "Ride" launch....
