There are quite a few regular bike shops that have second hand stock, they'll do trade-ins and whatnot. You're won't find them in Central London though! Bromley Bikes does second hand bikes. They're over priced though. £150 for a 7 speed Raleigh with downtube shifters - no thanks.

Bah.. useless if you have a beard.

The Pakenham Arms? It's round the back of Mount Pleasant Sorting office (the big post office depot near Condor)

just phone the police. you should record and note down your frame number on the immobilise website.

photoben Good on your mate Sam. He got in the van! What a legend.

Seriously! He's lucky he didn't get a tellin'. Hats off to the bloke! If i ever meet the man I'll shout him a beer.

joe_b, Kryptonite NYs are bastard heavy and expensive for the same reason they keep your bike secure. Not much getting round that I'm afraid.

I actually think brooks look kinda ugly and are often out of keeping with the bikes you see them on. I'm in a minority though.

Fizik Arione here, no complaints. Thinking of an Aliante for my new build.

Those Zyme 3/4, what is the sizing like? I can't get to a bike shop all week, so I want to order a pair. I'm pretty skinny, 30" waist (levis, anyhow) and no butt. Wiggle reckons S is 28-30, M 30-32, which leaves me in the middle. These things on the large or small side?

Sounds good.

I noticed it was coded by hand! Clean markup and you're not gonna get scriptalicious with iWeb. Sorry to be kinda harsh in my last post, I was trying to be helpful but read it back just now and I sound like a jerk. :-/

I wouldn't bother with iWeb, Roberto. It's very hard to make a site that's not in one of the default templates, and very hard to find a default template that actually suits your site. It's also a selling point for .Mac and a lot of the ease is taken away without a subscription. A limiting experience unless you want anything but the most basic of sites.

RapidWeaver is supposed to be iWeb done right. I've not used it personally though. If you want a blog however, side step all of these and use Wordpress.

They are Nitto North bars

I like the bit where he nearly hits a police car on the wrong side of the road.

Design critique: The whole thing feels kinda big. If you're set on one column that's cool, but it gives some very long line lengths (~25 or more). You have large spacing between paragraphs, but too little leading, so the paragraphs end up very wide, short and bunched up. The justified text worsens things because it messes up the tracking. I do like the colours though and the graphic treatment is nice. The front page is pointless, consider leaving "Click to enter" in the 90s.

Good idea, I'm looking forward to today's event. Incidentally, the prologue is stage 0.

Ah that fastboy. Been a flickr favourite for a while. He rides and builds some lovely bikes. Plus his girlfriend looks hot nekkid.

They do ship to the UK, but it's an extra £150 plus UK vat, customs etc. when it gets here. So you're looking at at least £250. The Fuji Track is £300 over here, so just get ones of those. Track bikes simply aren't very cheap. A conversion is the best way to go for getting a cheap fixed gear.

I think the Windsor Hour bikes are rebranded Fuji Track bikes, maybe with some different components.

I was bit baffled by that frame. Has he put toffee on it?

I'll swap you my POG collection for it. I can even throw in some Desert Storm trading cards.

Now why would you go and do a thing like... i mean... ow... nutters

I think we should have a separate comp for stickers. They'll be better in proportions more suited to tubes, and I didn't have time to enter the spoke card contest ;)

Lol. I've got those whales all over one of my notebooks.

Somas are nice, but every time I look at one I get put off by their logo. If they were a heavy metal band it would work but...

I prefer the black. I've really been craving a compact geometry recently and these look lovely. Just as I put a few hundred down on a traditional frame!
