Spotted in Manchester...

Sorry you're all right! I'm on about 63" at the mo, my last set of wheels had a 16t not an 18t on the back so I got confused.

Spin to win, it seems!

63 - wow that's low - are you sure it's 42 on tha front?

Saw a lovely dolan, breakless with bullhorns outside lass o gorwie last nite? And then a white frame possibly black forks whizz down oxford road outside bbc? Didn't really get a good look as it was dark. Think u mite have had a postie bag?

dolan is luke

........Edited...... missed the boat!

63 - wow that's low - are you sure it's 42 on tha front?

yes. spin to win. apparently. I'm going to sort that right out though, as it seems I only have 4 skid patches :|

Probably going to whack a 16 or a 15 on the other side for speed gearing. Then we'll race.

@ nc :how was nyc???

spotted Johnny going up the oxford road at about 11 last night, with a friend. I was waiting to get into The Corner, trofs new venture. It's alright, nice decor but small and full of meatheads, as Fallowfield always is.

Also someone who looked like Liam but wasn't on a white frame with blue forks and what looked like Dildo bars, rocking around the street with Trof on.

Also, a black frame with big bmx bars on it, and a paul components brake lever in a real weird position on them, locked up near the take-outs opposite Owens Park.

Holllerrrrr

saw the guy on the black frame with bmx bars, looked very unsteady.

might donate a freewheel

"spotted Johnny going up the oxford road at about 11 last night" - rolling dutty
"a black frame with big bmx bars on it" also seen it around town

saw James I think, he spotted me first and shouted but was gone before my brain could compute

Saw three youths outside BBC today, shouted 'do a skid'. They looked bemused. One Pista, something fancy, Claude Butler?, something else

Oh, and a purple Dave Yates that looked sex in Rusholme. And a black dolan

Purple Yates is "dollar bike" James

A fair few black Dolans around at the mo, could be Alex, Luke etc..

black langster ('06) at the bottom of rusholme, ridden by a guy in a blue/white helmet.
guy on the blue frame/white bars i mentioned earlier, mid-rushlome, with a mate on red gears.
Johnny parking up at the edinburgh cycle co-op
and a tallish guy in blue training top on a purple frame with anatomic drops getting money out opposite the cash-point where spar used to be at the top of Oxford Road. I would have hollered out but I was catching my breath at the lights.

Hi everyone!

Oh and to whoever was trailing me on a yellow mountain bike. 1) I am not racing you, I am delivering drugs (prescription) to a friend and trying to get some fresh air between writing essays 2) Don't hug my wheel so close that when I skid you almost go over the handlebars trying to break 3) When you pass me after I signal off and slow down to go into a side road, don't shout like you've beaten me. You never passed me and I was going at a snails pace. Prick.

I see those Dolans fucking everywhere, but never have I seen them ridden. Mysterious. I once chatted to a bloke fixing a puncture on the Dolan with yellow rims, but apparently he was just looking after it for a friend. Ghostly riders...

saw a dolan going south 30 seconds before seeing you morgan, maybe they aren't bling enough to register on your hipster watch.
you saw me though, a compliment.

Oh, I didn't notice that one? Weird. Stealthy, maybe?
What where you up to in ECco-op then Johnno?

looking for a wrench, didn't use them tho, a friendly diy shop a few doors down had what I needed.
and met voidcore walking out of Coop with hot velocitys

dont worry everyone, i was only buying rim tape from bike coop!

what's wrong with coop?

whats wrong with electrical tape?

White frame super slack angles with possibly paul track ends? Think possibly a conversion. Riding no brakes no bar tape no hands. All white except one orange deep section rim. Shiny track drops.

I'm not sure why I'm writing this, hardly know who any of these people are

Riding no brakes no bar tape no hands.

No hands?! Did he have hooks or something to lock into the drops? SPD bars? Hardcore.

It's like craigslist missed connections, but with sweaty men in tight lycra/denim! What's not to love?

brilliant

temporary fix...

That's dude is called Arron, don't think he is on here though. His bike is a GBH creation.
