Spotted in Manchester...

Yew Tree Road. I was incognito, on foot.

ahh yeah would have been going home/leaving my home. I live right by there.

Some chick in team GB gear on a team GB pinarello with full DA but shitty mavic Ksyriums going as slow as me on my polo bike in polo gear from talbot road to sale.

Apparently not a chinarello either. I thought she may be a pro, but I think she said her dad gave her the bike and she said something retarded like I have really big tyres and hers are skinny. not cycling that well aswell, no shoulder checks or lane taking in dangerous places.

it's rare for a even slightly eventful commute, so there you go.

Black All City with rear Chub and gold rims, at Hulme garden centre

Something bright pink gunning along curry mile on Saturday.

most the GB squad ride ksyrium equipes on their usual bikes, she's probably a track rider too, most talented road riders arereally fast in races but im sure they dont give a shite about blasting it about the streets of manchester. saw philip hindes recentyl he had ksyrium equipes, jason kenny also rides them (and ultegra) imagine the gear they ride on the track and then imagine riding home after a sesh?

if she had got it off her dad then fair fuckin play!

^ that spot on. 4 of the world class bmx riders left the NCC on pinarello's today after their session, I doubt they're encouraged to razz about in them, esp since the Wiggo & Shane Sutton incidents last week.

If she had got it off her dad then fair fuckin play!

She could have been Jess Varnish, aka Varno's daughter.

Yellow Fuji with drop bars and front and rear brake locked up outside Londis on Hathersage Road, aaaaaand some guy wrapped up like a ninja that almost cut me up on Great Western Street because he didn't feel it was necessary to slow down when pulling out of a junction in to traffic on a busy road.

I think you're right!

could have been a team GB polo player

I hate those guys.

some guy got on the train at oxford road on a sticker-bombed silver ride.

had a pink dirty harry lever for your back brake. coulda sworn you had two rear cogs on the same side. using one as a spacer?

Fix-g hub maybe? Or Surly Dingle Cog

WI dos eno?

Fix-g hub maybe? Or Surly Dingle Cog

never seen one of those, just had a google.

also, spotted a Surly outside the MMU union this morning.

Spot on behalf of my Brother: Monday on the FF Loop, guy on a Pug conversion who played game when my brother yelled 'DAS - It's the law!' - Perhaps a bit more slippery than expected? My Bro says he was impressed he stayed upright. My spot: Seen a few times now on the loop between Chorlton and FField. Lovely looking Big Dummy.

Adam, coming in the shop to stick his Dutch chain back on.

some hero on a Brompton absolutely smoking a guy a on a moped on Oxford Road this morning. The motorised hairdryer didnt stand a chance.

Spotted a chap on a white leader 735 (I think) near spinningfields this afternoon, was abit wet and tired to stop and say hi haha

Guy leaving an old cream something (falcon) unlocked outside the tesco that used to be a pub on the A6 near will's wheels.

Some very bad colour schemes knocking about, mostly on Charge bikes

Normal Charge Plug (I think) no handed, hands in pockets for style points on Wilbraham Rd this eve.

seen a few fixed people this week, notably a guy on a black track bike who was locking up at the red lion, nice dude, offered me to lock my bike up as there were no spaces other than the one he was using, nice to see not everyone is a nasty self involved fixy cunt

Might have been preserving digits rather than style, had ice form on my jacket and bag at polo last night, brrrr!

Yeah I thought my thumbs were gonna drop off this morning. I need to invest in some new gloves.

^^ yeah, I saw some geared riders doing the same. Happy to stick with my merino icebreakers & lack of core strength/balance...
