  Looks like you did a decent job! I sort of miss the tasteless 90s tribal though.

  Speaking of tasteless 90s Donohues, if anybody is selling some wide as fuck 26mm (or 25.4mm at a push) risers, ideally silver, shoot me a message!

• Books - What are you reading?

  Sounds interesting, just ordered a copy seeing as it was only £2.45 on eBay! I also ordered the second book in the Southern Reach Trilogy seeing as I've read half of Annihilation (The first in the trilogy) today. I'd reccomend it to any sci-fi fans, it's quite unsettling.

  Looks good raw! Would look great with some real snazzy decals.

  I finished The Plague by Camus the other day. I found it quite hard to get into, I much preferred The Stranger. Having said that it could be because I've been up to my eyeballs in painkillers recently.

  I've just started on Annhilation by Jeff VanderMeer, based on a recommendation by a friend. About 60 pages in and enjoying it so far.
  Seems similar to a less spooky version of Roadside Picnic by the Sturgatsky brothers.

• Asking for advice about discomfort while spinning on fixed gear

  Saddle preference is very personal. There isn't a particular type that is better than any other for riding fixed, it all just depends on which saddle happens to suit you best.
  Your best bet is having a look through the classifieds on here or on eBay and trying to find something different to what you currently have for cheap and repeating the process until you find something that you find comfortable. I'm sure most people go through a few saddles before they find the right one!

  I don't know why, but that just makes me want to whip skid around a city on a hot summers afternoon with nothing else to do.

  I finally got this finished today. Done by Scott Move at Parliament. I got the lining done about 2 years and only just got round to the shading. Scott absolutely smashed it out, it only took him 3 1/2 hours to do all of the shading. Please excuse the terrible photo!

  I went to Yard Sale pizza earlier, it was really really good! I went with a friend who's vegan and gluten free and they loved it as well. Thanks for the reccomendation.
