I really like how the link to here at the end almost makes it seem like it's a TFL Scheme for people who need support after a bad fixed-wheel incident; like they put at the end of harrowing soap operas.

"If you or others around you have been effected by fixie-wheely-pedal-backwards bikes and would like more information and support, then please ring the London Fixed Gear and Single Speed action line, where you will be promptly told to fuck off."

should have been shot from the other side, so we wouldn't have the girl getting in the way of the porn. I love pursuit bikes from that era.

you're missing the point ;)

Photo 3 hurrrrr hur hur.

Put on your dancing SPD's, as I'm going to be ALL OVER THAT COURT!

In a bad, falling over way probably.

I'll grab that Thompson stem, I'll come pick it up off you too. PM incoming!

Turns out the bead of my brand new Schwalbe was split, that's why it was so easy to get on. Piece of crap, and my spare Armadillo had a rip in it. Fucking tyres.

I'm still looking for a place too, so if you find a cheap flat or something we could club together? Bikehaüs!

We're on!
You can hate on my trainer collection all you want but ACNE JEANS ARE LISH. Bitch!

Discovered this Small 52cm ANC-Halfords Peugeot Frame made from Carbolite tubing (believe me there's nothing 'lite' about Carbolite tubing!) By the looks of it it's mid late 80's and is designed for 700c wheels so no long-drop brake bollocks etc to get it up and running..... The paint work is really tatty otherwise i'd have done it up and flogged it some gullible hipster wannabe...!

1 - BB will need replacing/repacking, i've not tried to open it yet but will later...
2 - Alloy stem is welded to forks i've tried the hammering the stem bold trick to no avail, so gonna melt the fucker out with caustic soda later (wanted an excuse to do that for ages!)
3 - The headset actually feels ok, but may need replacing once the caustic soda has done its job...
4 - it'll need a seat post, not sure of the size but it's NOT 27.2mm - Snoops has my calipers so couldn't measure it....

Anyone interested once i've got it sorted out a bit...? Minimal cash wanted purely for my time sorting it out & parts (caustic soda, bearings etc)....

Yup, I'll have it when it's finished dude, for whatever you want. I've already got the wheels so I'll be poloing the fuck out asap!

have: nitto b125aa 38cm brand new
want: same but 40cm near new/new

If they were 123's you'd be on. Annoying. I love the deeper drop but I've got slim shoulders :(

Signed.
See you soon Nessy, I got a week of exams left then it's POLOCALYPSE.

agreed, absolutely awesome! it's like the teenage wet dream of a jaded 80s airbrush artist and star trek aficionado.

I wholeheartedly fix/agree.

It's cheesy, but I fucking love it. But then again I really want an airbrush disc wheel or a Harley with some ladies fighting a dragon on it. Wicked-bad.

A few weeks ago I was walking home after a party, and as a pimped up little corsa or whatever drives past, some tracksuited cretin leans all the way out of the passenger window and lobs a full, unopened can of coke at me. It hit me right in the face, just above my right eye. The car must've been doing 40 to begin with, so it was quite the impact.

This was all related to me by a friend, as I was, understandably, knocked the fucking out.

WHYYYYY? What the fuck is WRONG with people?

This happened twice tonight.
Fulham road twice by two different** black** cab divers.

Racist!

That Merckx is a beautiful colour, pity it's far to big for me.

Yeah i was told you have to leave enough room to let cyclists topple over without hitting you.

I heard (maybe on bikesnob) that some americans were developing a lazer that showed a ring three foot around you on the ground while you cycled along, to show motorists how much space to leave.

You mean something like this?

I voted fot them but I don't think they'll make the cut.

What, you think it's a stitch-up?

Happy Birthday Andy, one more inevitable step towards the grave, eh?
Hope you have a nice day and can at least remember this evening.
See you soon!

If you check here for whoever is going to go down, then grab their numbers from the Number thread in the private bit and ring up later if you can't get down.

I'll PM you mine the next time we head out if I'm going too!

Biting their nose off always works for me, spit the nose flash on the floor and stamp on it!`

After D-Locking their window, don't forget the window!

I really can't work this one out... Technically isn't this attempted murder?

No, it's completed HTFU.

Might be hard to read, but squint, it's worth it.

get fucking Batman playing Bike Polo. Everyone loves Batman!

Or, if you go with the dragon idea, please make it a cheesy 90's t-shirt with flames from the bottom kind of stuff.
Like this, but more bike-polo-y

UK 9s on the Chukkas, and no vintage Vans sorry Andy, I'm actually a pretty new convert to Vans as footwear.

My current thinking is "Vans for rollin', shoes for strollin'", hence selling all my high tops.
