2012-08-04 - Clown's Day: lo-pro ride

bump!

Good man.

Happy to organise a ride for a smalll, quality crew, but given all the chat and pictures surrounding lo-pros, seems a bit strange that there are so few takers.

Do these bikes ever see the light of day, or are they only pictured and polished?

maybe we should reiterate that faux-pros and geared lo-pros are welcome?

Sounds good to me, will be there, better drop that stem a bit!.....

The last clown/loproloco line up!

I wish I had made more of an effort. Also I wish I had not sold my low pro.

I am sure you know some kind, well intentioned bike shop, who could lend you a suitable steed.

Would be great to see you out on this, if you can make it along.

I saw the itinery for the first clowns ride, and suggest that we go for something similar.

And well said Apolloxl, any lo-pro, geared or not, or any bike that looks "silly," will be more than welcome.

The exclusive club Nazis, can go blow a raspberry.

That 24" wheel was effort enough

Some of them still get used for their original purpose

29% of the current list repped the clowns all the way to Brighton

I'd welcome the opportunity to join in this on my new lo-pro but i'm going to be away alas.

Assuming I cobble the bartram together in time I'm all over this. 24" tub fronts ftw.
No fancy dress though...

You misunderstand me, fancy dress of any kind is a bit creepy so I won't be indulging with you on that front.

Good to have another on board!
But camm annn, dress up just this once ;) ?

I didn't realise it was fancy dress till that pic was posted but now the ride seems x10 better!

Especially clowns. Nothing scarier than a clown! Remind me again why I've signed up for this ride?!

Clowns don't bother me, dressing up in stuff you feel awkward/absurd for the sake of 'Fun' is the part that I'm not backing.
If this precludes me for the ride then boo, but hopefully you'll forgive me, and my normal clothing on the day.

Absolutely your call, but perhaps some giant foam clown shoes over your Sidis, may be appropriate.

@ Poots, I think the answer is "mental Red lo-pro."

toeverlap would be an extreme issue with proper clown shoes

ed , i'll join you in the party poopers club no fancy dress for me either

I am not dressing up in a clown costume but I will at least wear some horribly clashing bright colours. Because I do that anyway.

needs moaaaaaaar clash ! ! !

who's that clown ?

^^Well I have a pink hat now...

I will also try not to strike poses like that, not really the right kind of clown.

le spok card?

Top man. I will get a bunch of them printed. Good work.
