*"Yeah, I'll take one, the one with the single wheel.

I used to have a New Deal t-shirt in nearly that colour, which I loved, and lost when I was about 13. It then returned to me in the best way: a few years later I hooked up with this girl and ended up losing my virginity with her (happy days). After the deed was done and I was feeling smug she said: "By the way, you remember that t-shirt you leant me when I was cold on new Year's Eve, do you want it back?"

Best. Night. Ever. (well at that point in my life anyway)"*

sounds like an elaborate anecdote invented to convince u sall that you aren't a virgin. ah ah ah. ten dorrar, new deal t shirt, you wan sucky sucky? i got frame for you, plenny much.

yes, true.

i think i better curb my rant there and then... everyone seems really nice and friendly and caring, which is important in this world we live in.

oh - maoz for falafel on old compton...

and, going by the 'what do you do' thread, a shitload of people whose line of work is anything but progressive.

"I think there's a connection between fixed gear riding and being politically progressive"

i'm really not sure about this, more of a connection between FG and political apathy, masquerading as some kind of form of progressive belief.

i don't think it's real. i think someone ate too much beetroot and had diverticula disease, this is the terrifying result of an hour's straining.

i used to love the pollo bar. it's now a porchetta, not quite the same.

god, that's terrible.

every ride is a hangover ride these days...

the lauriston is full of dicks. i'd rather eat my own shit than sample the offerings from that pretentious, yuppie infested gastropub. all those liberal art/media whores infesting hackney like a plague of boils, suppurating all over the tables whilst eating their smoked pizzas, hugely expensive fixed wheel bikes posed outside.

all of which makes it ten times better than broadway market. "i'll have the black olives please"... "really? that'll be seven hundred and sixty three pounds per egg cup".

it should also have the obligatory "ah ah ah" radiating outwards from the hub

i like beetroot in berwick street. but that's probably because i'm vegetarian. it's really carb heavy and good for loading up after big cycle rides.

and i like the premises... or anywhere that does a disgustingly unhealthy breakfast.

that's the ugliest, most disgusting frame i have ever seen in my short life. it makes me want to kill someone, just looking at it. i suppose that's a good reason to build it up.

i have a condor acciaio and the paint looks lovely, but bits flake off faster than a leper's fingers.

when putting a bottle cage on i slipped with a teeny allen key, resulting in a big chip.

the seat stays have a number of gouges out where i think a stray rizla blew across my path. i wouldn't mind, but for well over a grand i expected a paint job, not a light dusting of icing sugar.

same ones as i wear in summer, on account of the expense.

but with added el-cheapo decathlon overshoes.

i would have offered more than the £47 you just got on ebay if you'd pmed me back.

gordy's in barnstaple.

a wierd shop in a decrepit arcade, stacked to the ceiling with bikes. repairs cost £1.25.

is that a new hat?

i want one.

use armadillos.

"ignoanus"

what? is like igno-anus?

or like ignoramus?

happy birthday!

is it yr birthday??

[quote]jonaent (Jon) [quote]aidan umm **ocationaly ****we take the piss out of bikes such as langsters but thats just for a laugh..quote]

er... all the time? regularly? whenever someone asks what we think?

ah ah ah.

i think "good on 'em", and admire their skills of mechanical conversion. and if the frame is nice, then bike is nice. is no such thing as 'fixed gear frame', really, but that's pedantry. track frames are the ideal, i guess. i do like a really nice conversion though.

i'm spartacus.

as for the argument, all i can say is,

"ah ah ah ah ah".
