  • I also see this, it's lovely

  • Orbit is always nice to see. What's with the awful brklzz + no foot retention celeste thing and it's equally bad red pal locked up by the arts school most of the time? How do people even ride these things?

  • Yeah i see those, they are a little odd, i wouldnt do it myself.

    What do you usually ride? The blue dolan or is that someone else?

  • Blue Dolan or black Pompetamine, normally

  • I fitted new bars today, so rode about 2 miles brklzz to my lbs to get some new brake cable & outers. It beats me how anyone could ride brakeless without riding gingerly all the fucking time. I purposely rode through estate streets and avoided needed to stop as much as possible but even then ...

    Mind you it probably doesn't help that I can't trackstand. Having to slow enough to stop and put your foot down at junctions must be half the battle. This is probably the only time I need to use my front brake.

  • My pomp was brklzz for a couple of days while I waited for my front disc brake to turn up. Protip, don't skid with worn SPD cleats unless you fancy unclipping going down a hill and riding into a wall

  • Trackstanded (trackstood?) in tandem with someone on a silver Langster at the lights by The Bell this morning. Would have said hi, but didn't want to throw you (or me) off and cause a tumble!

  • I feel like I missed out on the golden days of when trackstands were instant cool points

  • Actually as Norwich is about 4 years behind everyone else, maybe there's time. We need a trackstand competition the next time there's more than 3 of us in the same place. No-hands for tie-breaker

  • Am I the only one who finds it easier to trackstand no handed?

  • @TomvanHalen I heard some kid say "woah, mad trackstanding skills" as I was waiting for a light the other day. I instantly felt very uncool.

    @Rikki Yes.

  • I mean I'm awful either way but balancing feels easier with no hands

  • Guy in all black with cropped trousers locking a raw track bike with beefy tyres outside flint about twenty minutes ago, looked like a Focale? Would have DASed you but I was on the phone/you weren't riding your bike!

  • the one with 'death trap' on the TT! Proper rad.

  • All black leader? Deep section rims etc.

  • Orange frame with drops, looked lovely! Coming down one of the roads in Mouseholds as i was going up!

  • @jdp on Carrot Rd yesterday!

  • Finally I get spotted!
    #bucketlist

  • I've never been spotted. but then, I'm pretty stealthy.

  • @bengreen 's Orbeaterâ„¢ on castle meadow at about 6 and then a black and red Fairdale SS on St. Benedict's a few minutes later

  • if the fairdale was cantis - then that could be Aiden's (new Barista at DH).

  • Kinda a spotted, theres a house on heigham street with some nice bikes that can be seen, the owner waved at me yesterday, on here?

    Also @thross did you just mash past my house? Was speedy whoever it was!

  • @12ounce locked up on Bridewell Alley a few minutes ago and I'm currently sitting next to @bengreen 's Orbeaterâ„¢

  • @Fixie17 - trying to mow down runners just off the marriots way last night? or else an @Fixie17 lookalike on a forme 29er.
