btw, bobob, what size is it?

because if you do decide to sell... ;-)

mend it mend it mend it!

i crashed my allin (road conversion) the other day and i think it'll be too expensive for the insurance to mend. they're lovely bikes. it probably does take a 27" wheel. mine does, and it's a lot later. pic is with 27" aero rim...

highgate's a goodie. i'm from muswell hill, so i know them well. there's a lot of short, mean hills in brighton town and a lot of longer mean ones just outside.

they're fun!

i'm in.

probably ride there and back, too, maybe spend another day there do some more rides (i will be trying to htfu maximum by this point if i am doing the fireflies)

From the look of the position of the rear wheel, it's completely unnecessary as well.

it's based on moser's hour record bike... built to take a back wheel bigger than 700c - less rolling resistance.

obviously the hour record bike was fixed, but the frame shape's identical

still looks over-exagerated, but he beat the hour record on a similar frame, so it must have an aerodynamic purpose...

obligatory htfu comment!

(he says while sipping honey and lemon)

hey anders...

we did it in september, from brighton. took a long day after getting off the ferry. about 115 miles if you make it straight.

there's a thread on it, and pm kelvin for a route. beware tho, we got stupidly lost in the paris suburbs. must have done 10-20 miles further than necessary.

cheers.

search the forum - there's a day by the seaside thread that has a full route cheat sheet and map

don't blame us, the hedgehog had a deathwish!

avenue vert from dieppe is 25 miles of fun. it's the first completed part of the london-paris bike route

bit cold when me n kelvin et al did it tho (we got the overnight ferry, arrived 4am, leaving 4 hours cycling in freezing september darkness).

most necessary point for a proper cycle route is in the endless paris suburbs when you're tired and don't know where you're going.

i've taken my bike on eurostar both ways now (ie: once i booked a place, so it travelled bagless, as cargo on my train; once in a bike bag).

would recommend the second - there were tons of people doing it, including a large group going down to do ventoux...

good work. just hit us up any time and come out for a ride and a beer... or i'm sure there'll be some forum rides down when the weather improves, so come on down and we'll show you around while the weather's nice...

still not 100% so gonna decline. see you soon tho

you can fit a bike in a cab. lots of drivers don't mind.

it feels a bit like turning to the dark side, and it's f*cking pricy, but it got me out of a similar situation once.

guerillaphoto chained up outside boots yesterday. by which i mean his bike.

also a strange white conversion going west on western road...

Only really around Tuesday night this week. Or weekend?

Also, might go for a spin/intervals on Wed morning. Max?

i have a stinking cold, or am just on edge of it, so don't know if i'll be up for wednesday... hold that thought tho elvis, i'll be in touch.

weekend i have to be up in london for some of it, but i want to do lee's ride again on saturday morning if i can. it was a sociable pace with optional sprints. flat-ish, tho more hilly than some weeks - i think lee tends to avoid the big hills. you'd be fine ss or fixed.

no, but you can give us our prizes!

so coffee and a ride anyone?

we'll start a support group!

i done most of january dry for the past three or four years... not too hard once you get going and forget how good beer tastes.

would be up for saying hello... laying off the beers for a while tho!

lewis!

good to hear from ya. happy christmas. it's fookin freezing here, so i wouldn't hurry back!

bad news... i've crashed my fixed (top tube, down tube and fork FAIL) but hopefully will get something back on insurance.

good news... i've bought a sick new road frame!

so let's go ride some hills when you're back. get the merckx out!

m

cor... when's that?

who wants a ride on sunday?

dibs on the 54, pending bank balance checking and a couple of questions...

will PM. cheers

that bike's going nowhere... does andy look like a man that sells bikes?

only if we have matching lycra outfits!

Andy, please let me ride that before you split it up!

practical yet stylish

sobriety/cornering fail

possibly ex bike, remember - but you didn't hear i crashed, elvis?

very bad news

Oh well!
I'll tell you about it after haha.
I have found my bike films DVD by the way, if you wanna borrow....
