Spotted in Manchester...

Luke on something blue this am. Some dude outside Hulme asda on a Lemond SS. think he goes crit mass.

Guy on an orange frame with chrome forks with drops in Stretford, turning right from Chorlton onto Chester Road at 8.50am.

I think I met him today, he has loads of weird spoke jewels or something on his front wheel?

Also spotted a bloke giving me a thumbs up as I was locking my bike up in the Northern Quarter this afternoon. He was on a black Giant track frame with a courier bag and black cycling cap. Any takers?

sounds like clodge, one of the messengers. normally wandering round GBH/Evans/Harry's when not got any jobs on.

That's cool, I've heard people mention him I think. Nice enough to give me a thumbs up so alright!

I'm going to go all romantic and say that Manchester has the most consistently beautiful sunsets I've ever seen. The colours are amazing, every night. Ahhhh.

i love you morgan

the guy on a lemond is prob tim. he's in hospital at the mo, got hit by a taxi. the bike's a right off. am off to visit him right now..in a bit... x

"red fondriest with miche supertype seatpost and rear race guard. seems to be in GBH quite alot, anyone know him?"

Fuck, when did that happen? I was chatting to him only yesterday! Either that or there is more than one critmass Langsterenger. What a shame.

more than one lemon-d in mcr.

to my knowledge tim (2 busted legs and written off bike) never participated in cm - always down sb by 5 ;)

think of tim's misfortune as a wake up call - we not bloody invincible... drink and ride responsibly...

Hope he's alright. Don't know him too well, I'm guessing Tim is the dude with the pink bar tape and Green lemond.

I liked his bike, shame. The crit masser was a different lemond.

nope not that one.tim is:

just back from visiting. he had his operation yesterday, he's in good spirits but then on self administrating morphine who wouldn't be??

Thigh bone brok in two places and got a big titanium bar in his leg now. gonna take 6- 8 months to heal!!!!

yep a wake up call to us all...

good luck out there x x x

Ah thats who I thought you meant

red orbit locked up in fallowfield yesterday.
saw a guy looking like it was going to stack it any minute along oxford road yesterday. black frame with drops.

this morning through fallowfield some guy on a raleigh team colored road conversion with drops, had beenie on with a helmet perched ontop of it?

red orbit guy - hahahahahahahahahahahhahahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

tell you about him nxt time i see you nice chris...

white frame, white bar tape on drops, green rear deep v, white front deepv (or the other way round - cant remember) last night next to the manchester uni union, an asian dude with glasses - anyone know?

james overtaking me this morning along oxford rd while i crawled along with 1 hours sleep under my belt and a thumping head feeling like i was gonna die - thats my excuse anyway

seen the asian dude a few times. has a nice polka dot backpack, gave me a smile today but i was grimacing and seemed a bit rude i think.

also spotted too many people (about 3) running a singlespeed with front brake. i just dont get that.

single speed and front brake - hahaha fond memories - '94 london winter,
fixed it up after two freewheels went in two months... and never looked back...

A dude this am on a purple frame, red and blue deep vee's. rode with knee's pointing out to the sides. Medlock St.

a silver Gazelle with drops and rather lovely phil hubs laced to open pros (oooh mama!) locked up next to me at the library this evening

saw that too, was lovely. think i have seen it on the current projects thread on here. if it had the ceramic rims it must be the same one.

definitely red deep vee? richie (ride it sunday) runs a purple frame with two blue deep vees, pink tyre on the front, narrow risers

Could have been him. I asked him if he was riding that Sunday night and he asked what it was. So i don't know! Think they were narrow risers, didn't take much notice
