RPM · 6th November 2007

nimhbus · 6th November 2007

Psmith does have a pointy, shifty look about him though

RPM · 6th November 2007

I should've introduced him to Dr James Ward at the Bec hillclimb. He built himself a fixed gear machine after I beat him a couple of times. He asked if I could look after it for a few minutes after the Catford event. I went to do the proverbial pick-up test, and nearly launched it into the air like a helium-filled balloon. I'd guess it was sub 12lb :O

white (+ colors) gazelle road frame, converted to fix, chrome nitto drops wrapped only up top, front brake, sans owner. discovered the following message on my bike, when i left (as had said bike and owner, previously):

can anyone read these chicken scratchins?

skoota · 7th November 2007

It was the polo champs, you let me try your bike talked my through your 957 coats of paint for $12 technique. Nice.

matt (baddesigner) · 7th November 2007

hi brendan, we met that day also, chatting with your good self and the lady with the bianchi (?).
spotted a load of dudes on nice red bikes this morning, mostly heading along old street from old street roundabout or around smithsfield. a chap on a nice old red bob jackson, wearing a brown wind breaker and a bum-bag. also saw a nice dark grey pearson along rivington street.

dogsballs · 7th November 2007

matt (baddesigner) · 7th November 2007
