just got knocked off in the rain , C**t overtook me , cut me up , swung hard left and didnt indicate , i braked hard , his back bumper caught my wheel and i ended up on the tarmac. funny loads of bikes / cars / people around but nobody got the registration i guess cos of the rain . there was plenty of cctv mind . should i call the rozzers ? car didnt stop ..........
this type of driver needs a serious lesson !

its amazing how many accidents happen to cyclists , i was nearly killed several times over the weekend whilst out riding in north london. It seems the posher they are the less they care about you . u -turns , doors flying open , overtaking although you are going as fast as they are , they dont seem to like a bike in front of them ....the closest call was a fricking bentley , they were totally oblivious how close they were to killing me and when you shout at them they have no idea !
best to just have a spare lock / chain / seatpost and drop it on their car by accident :) -

whilst in japan on a (working futuristic) train i had two men laughing at me cos of the hair on my arms which they were trying to touch , they were drunk all the same it did feel a bit like i was a freak in their country (and my arms aint that hairy) ......i do agree with their suspicions since on the whole japan is the mellowest kindest crime free place i ever been and mostly when japanese are drunk they are not aggressive like in uk . people leaving their wallets on tables and going top the toilet ? totally crazy for us here in london . but bikes do get nicked and some appalling murders happen too !!

Ciocc made some of the finest criterium frames coming out of Italy in the 80s and 90s.
They are/were often overshadowed by the more popular Colnago and Pinarello offerings, but are every bit as good, if not better.
If you find a new or clean model made from Columbus SL or SLX tubing you'll certainly enjoy the nimble handling and ride.
The reserve and shipping on this auction seem quite high, so be careful.
thanks i found one from this guy ,shipping aint bad (£35) and he sold me a frame for £200 BIN.......apparently he has too many white frames , but i like the white ! i was hoping to make single speed and if need be i can make retro racer in the future :)
