Via my conveniently located saddle crotch rip.

drunk mallet throwing is a fun game. Can we play some tonight please?
Sorry about your bamboo smash Mark, I got carried away!

I'll update again if we move back.

Call me, ray or bill if you want to check.

Dunno, 1pm?

Anyone else game?

Downham?

That's a stones throw from my house. I'll drop by after It gets too dark at the skatepark.

I agree Sarah.
Whoever wants a shot at the Euros should declare it here and they can play to win.

I declare that I want another shot.
I'm available all weekend.

You 'sneak out to the right' so you don't have to brake to slow down. Moving into the wind slows you down. Sounds like he knew what he was doing **(other than the drafting randoms in traffic bit). **

Anyway, being late for a meeting? Did you arrive at the meeting sweaty? How much time do you think it takes to slow right down, let them pass then carry on again? You would lose maybe 1min all up, if that.

Exactly. I understand the principle of slipstreaming someone but I was not his team mate or a competing rider in a leg of the TDF. We we're on Bethnal fucking Green road surrounded by brainless peds, busses and taxis. By pulling out to my right he was pretty much forcing me into the backs of cars etc.

If I'd moved over then we'd have played that annoying game where he passes me but can't keep it up and then I pass him again. I was late and didn't want to slow down. Sitting behind his lardy ass would have pissed me off even more.

I will turn and shout next time.
I can't believe I've wasted this much time typing about this guy. I'm out.

anyone who's ridden with me knows that I'm not slow. Today I was moving pretty fast because I was late. Any faster and I would have been risking my safety, any slower and I could have missed my appointment. Turning around to talk to him would have been pretty foolish with so many obstacles and at such a speed.
Hippy I don't understand what you mean by move over? If the dude had the legs to overtake me he could have, there were plenty of open stretches with no traffic he was just a lazy fuck.

In general I don't have a problem with drafting. Maybe he'd had a long day blah blah... But he was too close and kept sneaking out to the right.

I have a skateboard.

I should probably explain that I was on the Bridgestone and not the tractor.
I don't think like a polo player when I'm riding the Bridge.
Probably something to do with the speed, twitchiness and the fact that the bridgestone would probably just fold up if I crashed it like I do the tractor.

I was just astonished at what the guy was doing and I was very busy concentrating on not getting us both killed or mowing down pedestrians.

I haven't read or posted on this forum for quite some time now, mainly because I don't have anything left to say about riding fixed that hasn't already been said or that I can be bothered to type. But also because I was getting a bit fed up with the amount of numpties. I have befriended far too many numpties thanks to this forum (you all know who you are) and I'm sorry to say my numpty quota is now full.

However, this evening one numpty (probably a member of this forum) wound me up so much that I felt compelled to log in and vent.

So could whoever the guy is who sat on my back wheel all the way down Bethnal Green road at around 6:45 tonight please raise his hand and receive a well deserved flaming?

You were tailing me so closely that I was afraid to move an inch left or right or decrease my speed even by the slightest margin.
As if invading my personal space and helping yourself to my slipstream wasn't rude enough, you then repeatedly glided out to the right as I approached slow traffic, pedestrians and other hazards as though you were going to overtake me but then sat in that really awkward “blind spot” making it incredibly dangerous for me to move right to avoid them.
When we got up to the Bethnal Green crossroads you finally did what I had been anticipating the whole way and overtook me as we got to the stationary cars queuing at the lights forcing me to make a last minute left and filter through the two lanes rather than passing them on the right.

What you did was rude, aggressive, lazy and dangerous. If I ever catch you on my back wheel again I will cut up your front wheel so fast and laugh as you smash all your teeth out on the hard east end asphalt.

Learn to ride your shit bike properly and safely and stop being a cheeky, lazy cunt and slipstreaming people. Especially that fucking close. Tosser.

Ahhh. That's better.

See you numpties in about 6 months when someone else pisses me off.

I had a shit time but I'm glad so many others enjoyed themselves.
Thanks to all who organized it. Brian, the burger was the highlight of my day.

where are you all? It's a beautiful evening. Get the fuck down here.
I'm sick of shooting practice on my own.

@ nunchuck, cheers. Most people complain about it.
