6 fakengers, arrospoks, cycling caps, tight jeans outside Mario's Cafe, Clapham Highstreet earlier this morning

Clapham? The uncoolest place in London?!

Tell me about it, surely the quality of Marios bacon can't be the magnet??

I was on Clapham High Street yesterday, lookin like a right hipster, frame pad, cap etc. Maybe they were just filling the void left by me

someone on a surly whizzing by tooting common yesterday.
shouted do a skid.

got given the finger.
:(

Ah, inbred? Speaks volumes...

No, it's a GT, not an On-One.

who the polite couple on regents canal towpath, today pm, stopping at bridges for peds like me?

They should probably be on the confessions thread.

Single-speed girl in a red top and olive green shorts. Rode in the same bunch all the way from Kensington to Hyde Park Corner.

Lovely conversion, looked like an old Moser frame that had been de-labelled and then converted.

Uh oh! Beg pardon if I was doing it to you, I didn't see you though Wayne, sorry. In my defence, I'm blaming it on grumpy Monday - I do look happy some days, honest.

not grumpy Vic - more

'can't touch this - Hammertime!'

I was going t'other way

Thanks! Looks really awesome - I don't look mental in the slightest eh. Really now....

krankenstein, oxford st sat eve 7.30

and again yesterday uxbridge rd ealing...........ignorant git, shouted at you both times.

He's deaf as a post in the zone usually. I remember yelling at the fucker from outside Northstar one eve..

Some idiot on a blue road bike, running reds whilst pedestrians were trying to cross.

First light: Waited for pedestrians, caught up with him, "Hey Lance Armstrong, Why don't you wait for the pedestrians?"

Pedestrian cross-walk: Shouted "Fucking Dickhead" as he weaved through walkers. Caught up and passed.

Again zoomed through a crowd of people at Goswell/Clerk intersection. Someone even said "Bloody unbelievable".

Third long stretch between Goswell and Old street, caught him up and passed again, "You're not very fast are you mate?"

Then I left him behind, anyone here?
You oughta be ashamed of yourself, plus you are slow.

That will've been myself, Slaytanic and a few mates (Jim,Matt, & Kib) meeting up for our ride to Brighton. Claphams a shithole & that cafe was crap too.

I take it you was one of the 2 brother walking around with your bike dressed as Tennisengers?

There was only one arrospok too which of course was Slaytanics, one cycling cap, and I was wearing tights, not skinny jeans! Pah!

You made a right meal of your description!

How was the ride to Brighton? Recommended for a fixed outing? Seem to remember some pretty big hills on previous automobile-powered trips down there...

About fifty threads covering it, check it them out.

It was tough! Those hills are a struggle at the end but you get a sense of achievement when you make it to the top.
Make sure you got a day to recover though is my suggestion.
I'm not enjoying being at work today.

We had one snapped spoke and a snapped bolt in the saddle clamp!
We managed to secure the saddle with shoelaces and tape!
You can't really prepare for some things.

geeeeeeez!!! don't you ever carry a spare saddle clamp bolt?

Could have stuck an appropriately-sized tree-branch in the tube.
:)
Never would have got it out again though.
