  • they let him take a bike in the Arndale?

  • someone chose to go in the Arndale?

    ftfy....

  • Saw a pink & blue fixed with green rear wheel locked on Princess Street earlier.

  • they let him take a bike in the Arndale?

    Apparently... no one seemed to bat an eyelid, whilst I was like "what the fuck?". To be fair he could have come in through the street entrance to TKmaxx, but surprising that the security guards didn't stop him.

    Also, why would you want to walk around with a bike while shopping? Ok so maybe he forgot his lock, but if you are clothes shopping surely you want to try stuff on before you buy anyway? Ok maybe not everyone likes to do that, but then are you really going to queue up and pay whilst pushing your bike? And finally and most importantly, why the hell are you riding brakeless fixed without foot retention!? If it had been a purple and green charge which looked brand new I would have just thought he was a poser who wore it like an accessory, but the thing looked ridden and although i didn't have a close look (was trying not to stare) it looked like an alright bike.

    I am overthinking this, I need to get over it.

  • You can get away with pushing bikes through the Arndale, but not riding them. Some shops get a bit pissy about it.

  • I was shooed away from the doors by security before I even got inside when I wanted to walk mine through.

  • Hm. Maybe you need to give some sort of secret nod. I've seen a fair few people doing it. Might depend on which entrance you come in from too.

  • You can ride Bromptons through it.

  • I love that video.

  • I have a Brompton...

  • To the Arndale with you.

  • Guy on a blue frame/Corima 4 spoke up front/crazy deep gold rim track standing at the lights by Big Hands just before 1.

  • when we were filming the brompton vid we rode through about 7 of us and two bromptons hhahah the security guard called us cunts

  • can someone link the video. I watched it last year but I cant seem to find it now.

  • team clonc

  • of course. Silly me.

    cheers.

  • I used to work in the arndale. Got turned away at 7am the morning they decided to stop letting bikes in... I didnt bring my lock cos I used to put my bike in the stockroom so no need. but they wouldnt even let me go the 20 metres to the shop entrance... Had to go home and come back in by foot! Wankers.

  • Emyr on Cow Lane heading towards Ashley on his polo bike this morning...

  • About 15 min apart bianchi pista's one with full decals the other with out heading down wythenshawe rd nice too see someone else repping the chrome

  • Someone on a fixed practicing track stands in the car park at Platt Fields yesterday lunchtime.

  • if bike was sticker covered then that was me.

  • Did you master them?

  • nope, but I've found 100000ways how not to do it...

  • Awesome ratty carlton track bike locked up at Asda Hulme. Also someone shifty looking on a maroon coloured fixed with black deep section wheels near Parrs Wood. Possibly stolen?
