My initial jersey arrived. Unfortunately my manly pectorals are too bulky for it. I can get it on, but it's a little snug.
Bought it for £18, so that's what I'll sell it for. Would suit somebody quite tall and slim. Bout 35/36" chest.

Need to change my cog for the Vintage Jersey Ride on Saturday. Anybody have one I can borrow tomorrow night and return at the weekend please?
I could meet anywhere between Waterloo and Hackney after 6.30pm, or anywhere within reason. Rushing to get my bike ready!
Not online tomorrow, so please text me on

On Hackney Road now, some dude with gelled back hair, tache, shirt and trousers, shiny black shoes, blue Pearson lo-pro with a carbon tri-spok up front and a white tyre up back. And a brake. And matching hipster girlfriend.
sounds like bristlypioneer.

Trying to finish my Guerciotti for Saturday. Would def look the part.
BTW - Don't have access to the interweb during the day. I spend all day on my bike 'unfortunately'. And no fancy Aiii-fone.

Looks like me going up Camden Mews in the rain!
Or rather Steep Hill in Lincoln. That's what people should do to celebrate the next Paris-Roubaix!

Looking forward to seeing you Mr Crabtree. Been a while.
Have you actually met Fresh? ;)
I'm tempted to come . . . Just need to check diary.
You do know we both worked in the same office right?
Come along mate. Or at least for drinks afterwards. Just down the road for you.

pleasure to have you along.
Done the spokecard design. I'll try to get it up tonight.

verry nice frame.
although whoever buys it should put the saddle and bars at better angles.

Vintage jerseys FTW!!!

@ blix - stop teasing. flip her round so we can see the drive-side!

More class jerseys JD! People without jerseys should jump on those.

There appears to be a gastropub called Smiths of Smithfields open on Saturday for those needing a drink or bite beforehand.

And they apparently sell Coopers Pale Ale!

BTW - Try not to overdo it on the booze and amphetamines before the ride.

Those are some class jerseys there JD.
Come on people.....

I should have it finished this week. I'll def stick up some pix when it's done.

We'll be listing around 100 BIN jerseys at Convicts of the Road on eBay around Wednesday. They're mainly plain ones with a few team jerseys in there. If anyone buys one then I'll be able to bring it with me on Saturday as long as you drop us a line to let me know its required for the ride. I'll also be bringing a few on the day in case anyone wants to buy one or have a loaner for the afternoon.
Thanks Puncheur. Now nobody has an excuse not to be suitably attired!

Special note for any newbies who fancy doing a ride out of London to Epping Forest (30miles, which is easier than you think).
It's the second Vintage Jersey ride next Saturday.
You don't need a jersey to ride, but be nice if you did. There's a guy coming who sells vintage jerseys. He runs the ebay store 'Convicts of the Road'. He's based in London, so you could collect before, or on the day. Plus JD (forum member) has a shop in Camden called 'What Goes Around', and has some jerseys in.
More details...
