ahh that's how you hurt your face then em, simply slid down the saddle ;)

that is a weird frame ;)

Sparky That's right by my office, see it every day at lunch. I'm starting to think it's been abandoned.

i have seen it in that same spot quite a few times too. could be abandoned. round the corner on TCR outside the pret there is another fixie that hasn't moved for a while. a nice one too, though can't remember what off the top of my head

i like their seriously narrow track drops.

yeah, another good session all, and good to start getting the numbers up. i think that venue has become the one for the south london meet.

big thanks to skoota and stelle for mallet loan (they are still just about in one piece ;) )

hamster, meet pistanator and me at herne hill station at 1910 and we will roll over to peckham,

flatlander, dt, slamm, anyone put a link up to the place we played at in peckham just in case memory fails me. getting old you know.

cheers
jonny

okay, it's on. good stuff.

pistanator - you want to roll down with me and hamster? and anyone else. meet outside herne hill station at 1910.

right all. just trying to get a handle on polo tonight. skoota and stelle can't make it but i can swerve by and borrow their mallets. however, that still leaves us v short equipment wise.

ratboy
hamster
andyf
teenslain
big richy
jonny
sparky?
asm?

flatlander?

any more for any more. this ain't looking good at the mo. decision to be made by 1700 hours. our time.

4th may dude. it's always on the sunday of the first bank holiday weekend in may.

we go down saturday. take it easy, maybe spin around a bit of the island. then sunday the ride proper followed by many beers. monday make our way back home.

been really good every time. and i go with a real mixed ability bunch of mates. would be cool if a load of lfgss go down there and i will certainly hook up. but will ride with my usual lot as team leader, mentor, guru, shamen type. hell yeah.

hippy, train/ferry combo comes in at about £40/£45 round trip. i have always stayed in the same (really nice) b & b on the south of the island. gonna try somewhere else this year as the new proprietor propositioned my flatmate and fellow rider last year. seriously, he was coming on to her and whispered to "oh, come on, i will lick you out and everything".

get along to west end beers tomorrow and will tell you about it. they serve cola and all that.

hamster, you near me - Tulse Hill. can cruise over together if you like dude. that is if it's on of course.

cheers stelle, let us know what brendan says. i am happy to call by wherever to pick up the tools of the trade

true dis! :p[/quote]

i thought i had better say it before you did.

i'm with sano on this one. ginger girls rule.

snowy, the westie beers are always at the same place. where you were last thursday. the stonemasons. get down there dude

dt, you are right, liberal attitudes usually get thrown out the window when it happens to someone they love. think Clockwork Orange

yeah but aussies are more scary than halloween ;)

tommy, you have reminded me of one of my favourite quotes from the film Saw.

'i don't know how i got here. i fell asleep in my shithole apartment to just wake up in an actual shithole"

nice one brett. cheers mate

you just let it out graham, let it out son.

and 31trum has a nice frame for sale too.

older than time itself

dogs, i like bermondsey. even spent New Years Eve there. the area has definitely 'come up' quite a bit in the last few years, as evidenced by a few nice places to eat and drink (The Rose, The Garrison, The Woolpack) and a few interesting shops and stuff. like most areas of london it still has it's fair share of rundown flats and the like.

i am likely to be on the move in a couple of months and if it wasn't for the fact that bermondsey is too close to central london (thus depriving me of miles on the bike) it would be on the list. i am hankering after a move back to the east end.

brett, if you make it along to the west end beers tomoz would be good if you could run thru that brighton route with me or give me your little print out bit. might do it on sunday. give you and the others a 24 hour head start ;)

didn't know Dawes made a track bike.

dogsballs i was about to say......... where's jonnny!!

someone's got to show you poor aussies some love ;)
