Sun 10th Aug, 2pm - LFGSS Summer BBQ - Coach and Horses SW4 7EX

Come one, come all, to the first ever London Fixed Gear and Single Speed Summer Barbecue!

And that includes you lurkers, non posters, and noobs, – come down and say hello, ogle a bike or ask that question you’ve always wanted to ask but were afraid of the flaming

Date & Time:
Sunday 10th August – 2pm til closing

Venue: The Coach & Horses – Acre Lane – Brixton


Map: http://tinyurl.com/5ccwch

Bring your own food and their chef will cook it for you on Chug-Its beast of a barbecue for free, so start your jerk chicken preparations!


(edit, and no, Chug-It isn't their chef, they've got someone qualified).

Bring your bike jumble – to swap, exchange, freecycle or sell.

Music, DJ’s and a fine selection of condiments will be provided.

We’ve got the outside space, loads of room to lock bikes up, we’ve got the inside space, with DJs and rain shelter, and if there’s too many of us, we can have the upstairs space too.

We know that lots of you will be at polo honing your skillz, but come along afterwards – you’ll get fed and watered. With the crap weather forecast and the need for toilets / music / food, the pub ended up being the easiest and most convenient option to cater for all of you.

Remember, this is only the first barbecue, the next one can be East if you want to arrange it!

Now now, this wasn't meant to start and East vs Southside postcode territory spat.

It was meant to bring us all in one place for bikes, beer and burgers.

Behave southies!

East Vs South beef? This could trigger a full-on HHSB war between the Southern coolkids and the Eastern knobends... It's the Fixed Gear Apocalypse I tell thee, we're all doomed... Dark days...

and a good job too otherwise vegans and people who bring budget meat wouldn't get a look in!

(it IS vegan/veggie friendly though, it has three seperate grills that all move independently and don't touch. Scrapheap Challenge baby.)

There's only districts and whether you can be ringed to make the trip... This time round it's south..nice roll as everyone knows.

Let's concentrate on the good stuff and hope the sun's out!

Don't worry GA2G I've already tested the waters, they are not fatist.

I'm going to head to the shops on the way home tonight and buy up chicken and secret stuff to start the preparations. This will give it 5 nights of marinade

Migraine all the way.
No visible symptoms, you can recover in a day and you can also extendo the sickness, if you get drunk (or not enough rock) on the day you took off sick.
Blame it on the dairy food group.
