  • On Brandon St, I noticed someone with a bike upside down, so I stopped to see if they needed help (as I (almost) always do - hell, there ain't many folk carry as many tools and spares as I do). It was a woman struggling with recalcitrant chaintugs on her white Giant. Her main problem was only having two hands, when the task actually needed four. I helped out, but she knew precisely what she was doing, so it was quite swift.

    Just remembered: As I stopped, she checked that I was on a fixed/singlespeed*. She clearly didn't want to have to explain chaintugs from first principles to an ATGNI.

    • Not quite. I ride an S3X, so track ends and fixed, but not singlespeed.
  • The answer is under your mouse pointer...

    I've actually just tried the old hover trick and it doesn't work anymore. So, erm, sorry for confusing you even further, Chaz.

  • s.walrus on the tandem along the Strand.

    Morning. Hope you manage to find some more project time!

  • Spotted Appollo on regents street on that nice yellow bike.
    I was eating lunch outside subway, never seen you before but recognised that bike

  • Hi! Was probably playing dodge the peds huh? Mental...they come at you from all angles...

  • Tommmm and Apollo (identified by his yellow bike with WBV decals) in Cycle Surgery, Spitalfields just now.
    I was only in there for a second looking at some pedals.

  • Apollo is the new HoKe on that bike!

    Oh hi!! thought you looked like an 'on here' type :)

    any luck? BMX flats no?

    I can recommend Volt BMX, they have loads...

  • Has Pops dropped the 1207 or is that another Pops. Too much change around here.

    I went up to BLB and got some from there instead, didn't want to wait to order, but thanks for the links!

    It's me, minus the numbers, but still me :)

  • You should have dropped the marin from the avatar before you dropped the numbers.

  • it's still my baby for now... until the MAAAAASH is done

  • Maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaashhh!

  • I didn't even see you. Or get a chance to speak to Apollo. I was busy helping a guy establish his frame size and find a sub-£1000 105-equipped bike. Which really shouldnt have taken 45 mins.

    Should have gone to the actual shop in Stokey. Solid guys.

  • Yeah, you seemed busy so didn't want to interrupt, and I was only in there for a few minutes. I knew you worked in a bike shop but didn't know it was that one, now I have an excuse to pop in more!

  • Should have gone to the actual shop in Stokey. Solid guys.

    This. Kev is a great guy. Always helpful.

  • I definitely would have done if i'd had the time. But i'm off ill today, and didn't want to venture too far from home. Next time...

  • Ill but still building, this mash is serious bizness!

    It's rediculous, just nearly forgot unclip when one forced me to stop suddenly :/
    Your bike looked as sweet as it gets btw.

  • I think Regent's Street was where I set my ped dominoes high score.

  • Near Westminster Bridge road is mine :0
