i'll have second dibs on the trispoke...

(i can't believe you're selling this)

Maybe you could answer one specific question for me about the position?
One of the problems I had was that the position you are in when you stand up to pedal is really odd and forward. Is that just me, or something you just get used to.

i guess you must get used to it, because it doesn't feel weird to me. have you ever tried hanging onto the bottoms of your drops and standing up to push? it gives you a lot more power.

you could say everything on a lo-pro is a bit odd and forward. meh. you'll sort it out. join the lo-pro brotherhood!

just come down, fromemory. there'll be people that need pairing up...

they're fun. really nippy and responsive. very good for weaving through traffic. it's pretty much ideal for riding around on in london. you actually get used to the riding position fairly quickly... i feel really upright when i ride my other bikes now. having said that, it's not an ideal position for big distances -- i'd probably not want to ride to brighton on a lo-pro, for example. but for any kind of city riding, it's great. i reckon i've been putting a few hundred miles on mine a week and i have no complaints. it'll never be the most comfortable bike you own, but it may well be the most fun ride you own. mine is.

no you can't borrow mine.

i'll buy it off ya...

(i have no shame)

... and then there's this:

a few fond memories from 2008 for me.

even if everyone thinks the forum's "not what it used to be anymore", i enjoyed a lot of forum events and rides this year (this from the london lights night ride):

i spent three months in berlin this year and finally found a city that i like better than london. berlin's got its own forum...

and this shot's from the weekend when the london girls came over to shoot their magazine article and we took them on a ride around berlin (i, of course, was busy taking shots of my own bike):

but of course you can't appreciate the highs without the lows. like the man says, riding high in april...

... shot down in may

that's horrible! i can't believe people do that!

names and faces thread...

naw no stickers. clean and mean.

is it happening on the 23rd? cools, i'll drop by.

i'm out of this... i'm ill. might meet up for a drink at one of the stops though.

that raleigh is beautiful. are you taking offers? will you consider this?

brick lane... soma clips... brilliant...

here you go. enjoy.

ah, i've missed this thread...

Fivers flew, beers downed, favours bought and a pile of LCEF caps disappeared in a blur of arrospoks, checked shirts and coiffeured moustaches.

ha ha ha awesome!

skitching scares the fuck out of me. did it once on a pick-up truck who thought it'd be funny to swerve. i don't really do it anymore.

yeah they were kind of fuckers about it. pulled right in front of me, with very little stopping room. i actually thought they were pulling over to attend a crime at a store on that side of the road or something. i actually jump reds so often that i hadn't even registered that i had gone through one (oops) so i didn't even think they were pulling me over until they cut me up again and opened their door so i couldn't get by on the curb either...

birthday. happy. multigrooves.

waifs unite. we can overturn this christmas thing if we band together.

:)

those mks clips suck. i mean really, they suck. they snap almost instantly. it's like they weren't designed to actually be used. brick lane bikes used to have those awesome soma clips in black. not sure if they still do.

i got pulled over today. they pulled infront of me really quickly and almost rammed me. i jumped the curb, went around them and then rolled on. they pulled in front of me again and just about doored me to get me to pull over. it was pretty aggressive.
