London Fixed-gear and Single-speed

NEWS FLASH: we are now meeting at Little America (Canada) House Trafalgar Sq, due to concerns about being mistaken for a protest at the US Embassy. The time remains 7

Well guns on the 5th lost by one vote, so its on for the night ride.

the route is in the works, but it has the American International Uni and the Wild Oats in Kennsington, America Sq EC3, America st SE1, Union st SE1, and a mini race, and stupid competitions.

fancy dress, American flags, and fireworks are highly encouraged.

what kind of fireworks ya thinkin? couple of side mounted rockets for that extra speed boost?
of course I'm sure you've got one of these babies...

Is having a love for America a pre-requisite for this ride?

If so, I wont be able to join you, apologies

OF COURSE you have to love America! The land of Kool-Aid, Mountain Dew, and Oreos - what's not to love?
I love it so much I said "fuck this shit" and moved to London.

oh and mary when you read this, bring more trailer park sunrise.

actually, i got with an american girl once who was an ex-stripper coke head who was hot shit. if any of these types are turning up then im in!

have you met marry yet?

I finally have an excuse to wear this top then haha

aw, come on. You've got to love America, I certainly do. I really hope I can make this ride. America, fuck yeah!

You could go near Regents Park maybe... apparently they also put a good fireworks show on every 4th July.

the american embassy house is on regents park, so the dudes with big machine guns out the front

do the americans need a 50 strong police protection unit for this ride?

added to the route, keep them coming.

well, I'm in. I'll get Tramps in too. We could re-enact the civil war, North v. South between us.
I'm a little bit nervous about being decked out in the stars and stripes with a bunch of others that are, but, um, I have cute flag knickers so how about I just promise to wear those?
Probably won't make the beginning of the ride though, will have to meet you guy's out somewhere.

We're gonna need a montage!

OK, I'll do this ride only if you promise to wear those pants, and only those pants.

Meeting near the US Embassy at any time would be stupid.
Meeting near the US Embassy on a day when security will be tight is really fucking stupid.

Ride past it fine, but choose another meeting spot. You risk confrontation with people who aren't going to be patient with you, and if there's even the slightest risk that it can be interpreted as protest (and by gathering it could be) you risk arrest.

Forgive me flipping out, but it's really not wise to choose the US Embassy as a meeting spot.

How about the ('other america') Canadian Embassy?

ok we will meet near the littel america embassy, let me find out where it is.

canada house trafalger square, be careful what you call little america, (bigger and more oil reserves) Grrrr

I was actually on about the main one opposite the american embassy, Grosvenor street. Where the baby seal clubbing protests were a few years ago.

right new meeting point is little America (canada) house Trafalger Sq.

I will change frist post, VB please change title and make me sticky please and thank you

ill give you my number and let you in on the route secrets so you will know when to meet us.

is it list time yet?

Vinz has taken delivery of a Nimble Crosswind like this - as far as I know the first bloke in the London to be riding a Crosswind.

Yes "the London"

If you're meeting at Canada House, you might as well just do this ride on July 1st (Canada Day).

canada sucks

meh

Sorry Horatio, Mr Crash and myself ran into a strange specimen of Torontonian last night at westie drinks. She was a 'fag slag' wandering around bumming smokes off all of the guys pretending to enjoy being chatted up. Quite sad really.

I think Mr Crash in particular took offense so he'll be a touch anti-Canadian for a while. It'll pass.

sounds like every girl I've ever romanced, woe is me.

I'm quite up for this, although not American, I've got love for my growing up in Sac Town, the bay area and back down, for Cali is where i put my mack down. Show me love.

1.i'll bring more trailer park sunrise.
2.fuck you.
3.make cyber candy in covent garden a stop. they have loads of american sweets and proper A & W cream soda.

Cool, count me in! Where do I sign.
