I haven't had my bike down here yet,

i see - another plug lurking in btown... the quest begins.

i'm up for a ride - might have seen you and this navy plug /tan bars outside grand parade after the brighton uni show - you gotta beard mate? black hat?

kelvin was talkin about undercliff - been riding down that whole stretch twice last week - my tires are scared of all the stones and the concrete slab floor has that regular bump to it...

will post some pics of the recce once my mate gets them over to me. we had a blast on the way to worthing and on the way back - you can put some serious power down without too much worry within that 250m - its just long enough for sneaky high gear last minute power lunges for the win.

i think even with just 4 people - racing each other = 6 races ...would be siiick!

welcome dude! i got fam in lewes and here till end of aug - lets ride.

what u ridin?

i'd love to try this out. what happened to the plans!?

aight i'm starting a new thread on this cos its gonna be HOT!

PLUS we can see how many people would be up for it and discuss if there would be a better location.

im sure i've seen a vid on the tube or somewhere of a tokyo drag night...looked like loads of muscle burning fun!

the lo'down

who's gain - this spot has a 250m ish distance between speed bumps - good to start things off - and the site has potential for 500m straight line sprints!

wide road - industrial setting - mostly zero traffic - lit - no holes in road surface...

granted it is away from main town brighton - but not far on a bike!

• ideas on when would be great - i was sayin a week night/eve
  
  

guerilla ur down yeah that makes one race so who else is on it? step up!

49 x 14 [94.5]

i be +1'in yo ass fo da high gears son.

lets drag the shoreham-by-sea strip at dawn... 1/4 mile style.

finger was ON the brake as i turn onto a road that cuts through the middle of a small park...
this place must've had about 500 school kids all over the place hence the caution..
cars approaching in front so head to the curb side a tad. rolling thru all is good
BAM!
fucking kid right infront 1/2m to brake. not gonna happen. its all over.
earliest conscious moment was me on my back, bike was out 5m infront of me.

got straight the fuck up and back to the kid [10 ish] who was also down - she was still realising what happened. got her to the curb and she was alright - crying, but not a scratch.

i reckon i tried to get up whilst i was still sliding along the asphalt.. i remember it being an f'in quick reaction.

so she's fine now, i decide its time to realise i have one fat grazed palm, bleeding from the chin, two hammered knees [on the inside leg!?], and a stiff jaw. ...fuckin parents and kids all around, bike is still way over there in the road, SUV's tryin to get past it.. crowd gathered... aww here it all comes.

i got no stick. everyone was in full recognition that it was her fault - teachers came over askin how I was.. hah! i was wondering where the flaming torches were..

8 or so kids then delivered my bike to my side - dented top tube - all else was good and true.

i'm then told by some girls that they called her over to their side of the road and she ran out oblivious...

... ! ...i just walked outta there, legs gettin stiffer by the step. - inside leg!@£ - it was my KNEE that made that dent? and maybe i hit the floor with the other? i'm still baffled by that.

also dont understand how she was fine - must've hit bad - as my jaw fuckin caned - one chipped molar too!

close..for her! - she could have been fucked up

i'm gonna go heal now.

i'll make one! (^_^)

also on the prowl for 15t track sprocket [drilled would be nice]...

shiiit - runnin 49:14 feels super fast never overtaken on the seafront but according to that chart got 2 patches... gaining another tooth ASAP!!

sounds good - have been riding without for a good month and a bit - it's about time...

time/place

yo! really should think about getting some toe straps for this fixed ride - cant be letting those pedals escape... anyone got some? anywhere in brighton do any? - we need a ss/fixed store!

plus... what are people feeling: double or fat single or what.. i hit the bay - that thick powergrip one looks like it'll do the job - but won't suit the vintage bike!@£ ahhhhh what to do

didnt know where to post this - but any cats on here ride the critical mass - with the music we can all catch puuure jokes! c'mooooon

think it might be chrome langster.... but got a glance from a dude whizzin past grand parade on a chrome frame with pink hubs.... - i'm seeing people everywhere now - there needs to be more activity on here so we get to know cats!

who's is that black no-brake-nutter track frame i've seen twice bottom of north st with the comic strip on the rear chainstays.... sweeeet!

what am i saying! i'll try to be at the next meet park view? or fiddlers? wats 'appnin?

mercian track on north rd today around 6pm. looked like it had a forward-sloping top tube?

you found me!

must have eyes like a hawk... unless i was going UP the road :P

have been sprinting up and down the seafront for the past week on the uni run - loving the sun.

been after some fixed buddies in b town - where ya'll at / what u riding so i can keep a look out!
