You can hardly comment on changing avatars.

My eyes! My eyes! recoils in horror

We all had our individual interpretation of it and I have nothing against Muppets per se - but this changing of usernames and avatars has gotten out of hand. I say let's have the viking mask back!

+1 to that. I am confused easily and new avatars and usernames are doing my head in...Bring back Hippy's viking mask

(Answer - not my mum)

DB WTF is that avatar??

@ Stompy: hope you're ok dude.

I've thought of some nifty way to make my millions by making drain covers grippy but it turns out they're owned by the water companies not the council.

Wayne - wheel details please. (I've seen the respray and I like...)

"You're sick, retarded, don't get me started..."

Aidan, why sell it at a reduced price? Given the inference that its only numpties that shop there, I could raise the prices and make even MORE money.

Hell, I could give up the dayjob and run that mo' fo' - I could be Evans franchiser of the year! The fame, the accolades, the sales conference in Swindon...

I've just won a competition at work and some kind but misguided person has given me £100 of Evans vouchers. Whilst £100 to spunk on my fixie is a godsend, I've had a brief look on the Evans website and their selection of track stuff is limited to err...nothing.

Things I'd like/want are: some track bars, a cool BMX brake, new bar tape (Brooks), maybe a new wheel (Velocity/DT Swiss/Ambrosio rims/nice hubs). Anyone have any suggestions on how best to spend my vouchers / get the stuff I want?

I fully expect serious and stupid answers. Bring em on.

Or maybe Frank Kozik?

OK I'll stop hijacking this thread...

@ Slamm: always got the reference and love the avatar.

No doubt you're also a bit fan of Jim Phillips

@ LPG: I wonder if the breakless, flat pedalled Bianchi pista rider would agree? ;o)

+1 to Ralph's bike. Looks sweeet!

Best buy: DA lockring to go fixed
Worst buy: BB lockring instead of above - d'oh!

+1 for hating New Oxford St (Bendy Buses!)
+1 for hating Kingsway / Theobolds Rd (after yesterdays events)
+1 for loving Richmond Park

And the random road that I love: Bernard St - one way, south side of Brunswick centre: good tarmac and perfect gradient where 48x16 seems to spin all on its own.

Yep 'flesh pylons' has now entered the lexicon. That one's gonna stick - props to Kilgore.

peds!!

@ RPM: lol!

Let me tell you something, pendejo. You pull any of your crazy shit with us, you flash a piece out on the lanes, I'll take it away from you, stick it up your ass and pull the fucking trigger 'til it goes "click."

^ I don't think you're ever going to persuade the creative director of a car magazine to that way of thinking :oP

There are no absolutes in life. Whether or not a car thread should exist on this site is a different question. It's sparked a lot of interest, that's for sure.

(Le Car: agree with the Caterham, perfect track day car. I'd love a DS as a 'practical' car - if it were anywhere near practical).

I easily do more miles per year on my bikes than I do in my car, but I acknowledge the need for one.

@ 31: clearly I've been thinking about the rugby too much

+1 to that!

Kilgore you described perfectly what happened. It's more dangerous when Peds notice your presence than when they are completely oblivious.

@ 31: clearly I've been talking about the rugby too much...apologies!

^^^ I want them all! LOL - cheers guys.

First london fixed gear stack (i.e. in london, riding a fixie). Why? Cos I was late for a meeting and didn't shave off enough speed to anticipate fuckwit moves on her behalf. Lessons learned: be able to skid both sides, maybe reduce chainlength (currently in the 80s).

Was more concerned about getting myself out of the path of oncoming traffic. Lucky nothing was behind me - that's a busy junction and not often the case. Quite scary if I think about it, so I won't think about it.

Mareeoh - Soho Sq / Greek St this lunchtime. I was walking with my bike and a girl with dark hair. Slight doubletake but didn't say hi - so hi.
