Me too, and I assumed he would have been too lazy/drunk/sleepy to check the pic of the bike posted ;)

oh please!
That's ridiculous edscoble.

No, she was being really confusing and most of us think she is taking the mickey, or simply a troll, hence the comment.

It's called probability and statistics, not sexism.

I think this is a lame piss-take too. But if it isn't and you really work for Apple, then I hope your top-secret-can't-tell-you-or-I'd-have-to-kill-you job doesn't require you to write full sentences.

I'd NEVER flame ANYBODY. I'd give them the Care Bear Stare, and taser their asses with a laser of cheer and good will from my tummy.

'Fraid not, Chris Crash. My new bike is waiting to be picked up so I haven't been riding yet.

Good news is, I'm getting my bike tomorrow! Will post in the Names&Faces thread when I do.

This thread is pissing me off.
All of you, Skull, Hoxton take it to PM if you're looking to score.
You think its funny but really, its not.
You have no idea how hard it was to get men to relate to me as a fellow rider before this scene started growing, instead of some fish who also rode. I was not showing up competing with the boys to score a BF or a shag, but because I liked riding my bike.
The best part about the bike scene is that anyone can be a part. Its about the bike and the pleasure we all get from riding.. not who you are. It's great because its inclusional a place where two wheels comes before being a boy or girl or hot or not and a place where sexism is at bay to a huge degree. (clearly not completely - one only has to see the shock on a guys face when a girl knows how use a BB tool, recut threads or sheldon a brake together in emergencies)

I don't care whether this is a bs thread or not.

You've just taken the scene back four years, good job.

@jacqui ... I gather my attempt at slimy chat-up has pissed you off. I think your irony circuits are malfunctioning though. It wasn't me that posted something like 'phew, I haven't had sex for a week' or some such dodginess. It was me that tried to take the piss out of the OPer for this dodginess. Can't quite see how I've moved the 'scene' backwards four years though, I really can't. But I'm sure you have a point, if this post has upset you so much. So thanks for reminding me that what I may find funny others may be offended by.

Big ups to you for knowing anything about BBs though, male or female. They intimidate the hell out of me.

Dude, I get that you were taking the piss, yes i guess that most was ironic. it's the posting as a female and being a twat that upsets me.. not you specifically you or your post you just happened to be the last person that posted.
99% is HF.
I do have a sense of humour... honest I do.

I've been paying attention to 'hoxtonfixie's posts and their so unreal it HAS to be a wind up.... like there has been a couple of times where this supposed character has jumped straight into defense with offense..... it lacks common sense so much of how you treat people i am convinced until sightings that its a windup

I don't know much about the interwebs but is there any way that peeps can be limited to just one username per IP address...or something like that? Sure, that might not stop the real idiots with foolish questions but it might stop all this alter-ego stuff going on. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy a good laugh. But it's happening quite a lot.

Jacqui you are a beacon of sense dude.

this shits fucked up man.

Maybe some Peds or C+ Forummongers have infiltrated this online den of in-equality and bike love to rile these here good riders. The crazy internet and its global reach of nut jobs!

HF – If you are for real, you got spunk. Hats off!. Let’s see you at one of the drinks or CM ce soir (that’s Israeli for clear air..kidding) if you are an alter ego I would recommend giving up your previous life and living for real as HF, its clearly more interesting
