Just saw a lad blasting past Moore Street in the bus lane on a cream frame - Surly i think.. Anyone on here? 9.15AM 19/03. Not sure if fixed or SS.
Also, the other night at Moore Street station, I saw a lad waiting with his bike on one of the benches inside.. Black frame, really long stem. Another guy turned up with a geared old road bike with neon fades..

the former may be pistaboy.
the latter two came into oyb - both frames were massive and with traditional geometry so you need something like a 34" inside length to straddle them.

The red fixed one was mine, the Raleigh step through ss was Jess' (Fin's beau), the green Raleigh step-through fixed was Nan's, the white Peugeot geared bike was our friend Una from Cov's, maybe Fin's new black fixed was there too?

Actually there wasn't a green Raleigh there at all - I was riding my yellow peugeot, born again as a fixie on Satrday afternoon.

Aw man, I didn't spot you or I would have said hello! Fingers getting better slowly. Swelling has gone down a fair bit now. It can't grip anything, including handlebars at the moment with my left hand :(
Also Malletesta, were you at the "Until the Light Takes Us" screening at the Library Theatre yesterday in a red Campag cap by any chance?

Hey, everyone calls me Indy (don't ask). Pleased to meetcha. That sounds likely - I was working as a courier back in November and I live on Manilla. Any word on that race? I need to get fit for it.
