Gmail is faster.. faster.. faster!!! Less ads, no spam from MS, good spam filter, um.. I use both (I use hotmail for MSN Messenger) and gmail kills it for normal usage. Try it. I dare you! :)

I've created a google calendar called 'LondonFGSS'. I'll add stuff to it and then sort out some intructions so you can view it.

I could probably start one. I've just started using google calendar myself. It's then made public and you should be able to view it.
Not sure if you need a google login or not.. probably. Google Mail and Calendar rock though - tonnes better than MS Hotmail crap!

I used Velocity rims as my race wheels for at least 3 seasons of crit racing, training, commuting (my coach was all about specificity - so ride the ONE bike).
I weigh 95kg+. I crash HARD. Most of the strength in wheels is down to the build and NOT the individual parts. Mine went out of true once when I hit a steel railing at 30kph+ on a street circuit - only slightly out, mind you. The guy who built my wheels, Mick from Croydon Cycleworks, was there and fixed them on the spot.
I believe they are Australian-made rims (bet you lot don't want 'em now!) so they are actually cheaper than the Mavic options in Oz. I cannot fault them with my experience. Oh, they were 32H, laced to light American Classic hubs.

I'll help.. if the vodka is Polish. hiccup

winston NY dustmen wear Carharrt and we've got a shop in carnaby street selling their caps for £25.....we Londoners really are a bunch of tits aren't we?.......that goes for brand-obsessed label-headed bike obsessivists too.....no better than dumb airheaded Prada junkies.

You say these dustmen are from New York?

£25 you say?

runs to Carnaby St for deal of the century

Fancy a bit o' dead pidgeon IOC? :)

and one other point.. if most of yaz are anti-car.. what's with importing stuff from distant lands? CO2 emissions anyone?
That Witcomb looks wicked and if you want a kierin bike just buy the sticker kit - I'm sure most people here wouldn't even know.
Hmm.. might strip the Raleigh, kit it out with Naga stickers and put it on ebay.. :)

LOL How about seeing how many pidgeons you can kill and stuff in your bag? Checkpoint task AND community service.

Actually young people are the worst. Tossers in their hotted up cars, looking into their lap as they text their girlfriends, reminding them to vote for fscking Big Bruvva 29 or something.
Older but still young people with cash, ie. yuppie twats that think their black, 22" chrome-rimmed Land Rover (see HATE thread) gives them the right to the entire road (HATE thread).

Wind. The outside kind not the 'inside-soon-to-be-outside' kind.

wayne182 momnmouth coffee opposite borough market - best coffee in London
get your single estate iced coffee there they change it every couple of days] and the've got a big bottle of sugar syrup there as well -
and if you're brewing at home get some of their organic espresso blend beans

13mi to get iced coffee? Ok, I will try it.
There's a really nice cafe near my place. In fact, it's the best coffee I've found in London.. and it's in the 'burbs! WTF?!
The Caffe Nero on Oxford st near me is my second best. Melbourne has better cafes. Fkn Starbux

Why doesn't anyone in London cook pancakes???? I'm not talking My Old Dutch crepe crap, I'm talking proper pancakes!
AND why can't I find any decent, scratch that, ANY iced coffee?? Aussies fruit & veg is better although we don't have any water now so that may have changed.

All good points, but there must be places that do American style pancakes. The thing that bugs me is that when you do find iced coffee it is IMPOSSIBLE to find sugar syrup for it, so it is crunchy. I have though about opening a cafe just to address this issue.[/quote]

Oh god please please do. I need the address, stat!

I used to have bear traps on my roadie.. and ride with no shoes.. although they didn't have the cage on them, just the flat 'X' part :)

You get FoodRage too? Cool, I'm not alone! Let's start a support group. Meet you at Krispy Kreme in 20min.. ;)

I used to go out with a vego and eating vego for me is fine. I tried doing the vegan thing but only lasted 1.5 weeks.
I'm the sort of person that needs to eat.. lots and NOW! I can't be wandering around shops and stuff looking for products that don't contain this or that..
I really should try that RegVeg around the corner..

Well, speaking on a personal level, I'm here because I got sick of my job in Melbourne and wanted to travel rather than get a mortgage. Now, the travel could be a series of short and expensive trips abroad or I could just do what others have done and move somewhere in Europe and do much cheaper trips from there. Best place to move in Europe for me was here because my grandfather was English so I have a less restricted visa than most other places. I only speak English (well, Aussie) as well so moving to Germany, although cool, would be quite a bit more difficult.

English going to Oz? Well, the weather, the beaches, the cost (1:2.5 UKP:AUD) and perhaps this freakish obsession with sh1thouse television soap drama? :)

Actually, there's more English living in Australia than Australians living in England.. even with our tight immigration policies.
Also, our wine is better than most of the planets, although I hate wine.

Like home..

(I'm getting all Aussie at the mo' coz I'm booking tickets for an xmas trip back - first return in 2years)

haha :)

I do agree somewhat with the food thing. It's taken me quite a while to find some nice eateries in London and I still have RUBBISH now and then (no fault of mine - just places not caring what crap they serve) but you'd get it anywhere. As for Heston being the best... snail porridge = fsck off!

On the flip side, Aussie beer is rubbish and english beer rules! Cider here rocks - we only really have strongbow to my knowledge.
Due to the sheer number of people here the variety is huge. Australia has a lot more asian influence which I really like.

Aussie junk food is better but I have english mates who argue otherwise so I guess it's what you grew up with. I miss Milo and TimTams and Natural Confectionary company lollies (that's 'sweets' not 'iced lollies').

German kebabs are better than the ones here. Belgian and Dutch chips are better than here. I really miss Flake (shark meat) as the "fish" in fish and chips. Cod?? Yuk. I happen to like bangers and mash and the ESB pie at the Fullers pub near me is tops. There's lots of cool Thai places here. Um.. I think you win some you lose some is what I'm getting at.

velocity boy You have a Canadian girlfriend and a Polish girlfriend?

I refuse to answer on the grounds I may incriminate myself..

I thought the DD was pretty flat? A 'sprinter's stage' if you will?

31trum if i go Hippy i'll be getting the train back, not up for riding

Coolies. If I make it then I'll hunt you down or something ;)

mdja Wow. Australians can ride bikes?!! Well I never

You don't watch the Tour de France then? :P
