out of interest, I've tried searching but cant find the location of NE polo tonight?

East Drinks i've found though so maybe i'll head there?

+1 Class evening. Thanks very much Bristlypioneer for your help. You getting yourself down to NE Polo tonight? I owe you a beer I believe.

Not sure if I can make it, but i'll try and head by, if not see you soon for more trickery!

+1 that was an ace night, lovely to meet everyone again (and anew).

I was a bit dubious about the low ceiling of the floor below, but after seeing people a fair bit taller than me trying wheelies down there I soon calmed down. Top marks to Minh ai for the supergirl tricks, and thanks for the skip stop tips Object. It was like attending an evening class at parts, but with more beer.

see you all soon

Going from past ones 8pm is prime backwards circles and one leg skid time

I've been away for a few weeks, but will be back this evening (weather depending). I've just fitted some pedals with toe clips rather than SPD's so I'm well up for some silly trickery.

Might even be bringing a friend along too.

see you later

Slack Chain!

it's a plan then.

I'll not be around, but if you go to the box office with the tyres they'll give you the tickets and envelope.

shall I put them as scrapper or do you want to PM me your real name?

ace, it's on tomorrow (02/08) at 20:45 if you fancy,

I can leave some cash and a couple of free tickets at the box office for you,

or on wed (06/08) at 18:20

I'm thinking this is going to be a never ending search.

I may go for amber walls then pull out the white trainer shoe polish and get all DIY on them?

I'll let people know how the experiment goes.

Fuck Ipod's

I tend to sing at the top of my voice when I cycle.

There are sooo many numpties on the roads at the mo, the amount of near misses with people wandering across cross roads is ridiculous. They don't seem to understand that more experienced riders learn the timings of roads, order of traffic flow and understand the gaps, not just wander into it and hope for the best.

scrap that, apparently she can't make it.

I'll still be there from 6:30 though.

Hello,

I'll be there from 6:30pm

I may be bringing a friend along with me, she's got a single speed at the moment, but it has a flip flop. If anyone has a 18, 19 or 20t cog laying around and a lock ring, we could bung you some cash?

I'm going to try and come again this evening.

might have to dash off early though, so once again will miss beers and sunset etc.

see you all later.

not sure if that was me or not. think there was a few wipeouts that evening.

personally i blame you actually. that was you looking like a chinese motorcycle display team after 5 mins wasn't it? impressive. but motivated me to step up my game a bit too soon! ;)

Ooops,

well if it's any consolation I came a cropper trying my new tricks outside the pub last night infront of my friends. Looked like a right plum I did.

OUCH!

I think I might have heard you come a cropper as I left, just as I was heading down the ramp there was a sound of crumpling bicycle and an ooofh from the rider.

get well soon.

would you sell rather than trade the wheels?

i've been looking for a cheap set for a friend.

Saw them catch 4 people at holborn this morning. Tried to shout at someone as they shot past us at the lights but they didn't hear. They got collared.

as was said above, how about they take on the motorist next week? I've yet to see ANYONE stop before the green cycle advance stopping area at lights and not just park in it. Plus the number of people on their mobiles is ridiculous. I even saw someone driving with a smirnoff ice in hand a few weeks back!

that was ace once again. Next week I'll try to not dash off so that I can stay for beers and the sunset.

cheers for all the tips,

One legged skids! (fuck me, didn't think that was possible)

see you all next week.

My flatmate's got a pretty new Ambrosio going spare... Double fixed... I'll ask him if he's shiftin' it...

any news? most she can afford is about £60

Yes, I'm still interested.

How wide were they though? I thought they were more like BMX width than old racer?

Free tickets to the PCC along with the cash still available.

Maybe, I'll ask Elle. Was really looking for something less pretty for less money.

Hello,

I'm helping a friend build her first fixed wheel bike and we're looking for a cheap 700c rear wheel to pop on a frame we found.

I guess we're looking to pay about £50 or so, if anyone has any laying around, please let me know. Will consider ones a bit out of true, left overs from people upgrading their off the peg's anything really.

cheers

Bristly

yes! that was ace.

Lovely to meet everyone, we had a whole little beginners mob at one end of the carpark (Hello Peter,Johan and everyone else). Thanks to all the pro's for being so patient and teaching us the ropes. I've been commuting on my bike for 3 years now but never had so much fun on it, the ride into work this morning was full of track stands and skids.

Thanks for lending the tools, and hello to roxy (I think) who nearly made me come a cropper when she arrived just as I was trying my first one handed trackstand.

I'll definitely be back next week, top marks everyone.

I'm just a bit concerned that anything I make will snap off if the brakes pulled hard.

great, thanks for the help,

I'll get hunting on ebay for a mafac brake, or perhaps a cheap fixed rear wheel!
