Hangin' Tuff indeed.
I suppose the alternative to this ride would be to HTFU.

Are you, like me, new to the beautiful, life-affirming phenomenon that is fixed wheel cycling? Perhaps you are recently back in the saddle after a period of illness or injury. Maybe you are lazy f*cker. Does a ride to Cambridge just seems a "bit much"?

Whatever the reason, I'd like to put forward the idea of a fairly easy-going ride out someplace, i'm eastside so I propose something like a tootle out Epping Forest way or something like that. Just a few hours, nothing too crazy, a chance to put a few faces to names and go for a good spin. Am away next weekend so maybe the weekend of 31st/1st June?

Having never organised anything like this before i'm totally open to suggestion and would definately appreciate some tips from the more experienced members about getting something like this on the road. In fact i'm sure we'd love to have some of the more experienced members of the forum along for some back-up!

It seems the protocol is to start a list so if you're up for it drop your name on and we'll see where we're at.
Cheers.

I am a photographizer by trade, I hearby volunteer my services.

Big crank strike debate here:

I think the long and short of it was it's nae bother. Unless you're Barry Sheen.

Mint! Wikipedia doesn't have an entry for "electroluminescent light" - pray tell us more - how does it work?!

Mindblowing! Pure respect for the effort involved - I wish I had 100th as much motivationn :(

My ex moved to Clapton just before we split up. Clapton had nothing to do with the split though. Seemed alright, not as bad as I was expecting (feint praise?!)

E9 Boyyeeee!

Anyone play Mariokart on the Wi?
Hands up if you want an online race.......

Well I think that just about settles it.

In summary: Ride what the hell you like, it's all good.

Thanks everybody.

They're doing some kind of census.

How about this?

This is the padded hat:

These are padded snowboard beanies, probably not much cop but for those that are too cool for school and don't want to rock a hard lid maybe a compromise. Probably a bit hot for the impending summer though.

Being new to this forum, sometimes I feel like i've stumbled into a nest of vipers, and other times like i've hit comedy gold! Keep it coming all of y'alls! :D

I've riden spd's for years but as i'm about to convert to my first fixed I thought i'd see what folks thoughts were. Think i'm going to stick with 'em but i might be rockin' the helmet for the first few weeks!

I see a lot of folks rockin' the toe clips, for me I would have thought clip in pedals would give you more control on a fixed. Is there a practical reason for the cages or is it folks just prefer not to have to wear comedy shoes when they cycle to the pub?!

"It's a ride built on adrenaline and danger, like walking across a lava flow in flip flops."

ha ha ha ha.

As well as ants it seems the nice weather has brought swarms of cyclists to London's roads! Now obviously more folks on bikes is a good old thing but Jeez Louise was it hectic riding home tonight. I think this week has brought a lot of bikes and cyclists out of winter storage and it ain't just the chains that are rusty. Keep your wits about you kids!

Ah User cp - that's the cookie - cheers folks.

I should probably elaborate - my avatar thing doesn't show up when I post and i'm trying to rectify this, I thought I might be able to sort this out through Customize Profile. Am I right??

Howdy. When I click on the Customise your profile link on my profile page I get this message:

But it's my own profile. Chances are i'm being special, what am i doing wrong?? Ta.

Perverts! ;)
