The tall guy who works in the knog store, walked in after school with my free rolls saddle I scored from my teacher had a chat.
tallshipahoy
thanks heatseeker, wow a missed connection which worked, amazing!
Riding down Blyth this afternoon, got a skid request which went something along the lines of “do a skid you stupid bitch”…
This is getting ridiculous.
Guy on a white Peugeot along Wellington Parade yesterday, some impressive backward pedaling track stands at inclined lights.
hating on hipsters is stupid. since when was riding any kind of bike only for some elite group? my grandpa road fixed
by the way
fucking LOL
+1,000,000,000
And … the guy on the green conversion with tapeless bars in Nicholson St. If you’re tough enough to ride brakeless, you should be tough enough to ride on the road and not the footpath.
Today riding in the city, got honked at by an old merc not so keen on waiting for oncoming traffic, so he revved his engine and charged it past me. Nearly crashed into the oncoming car. At this point i yelled at him “yeah smash it!!” and started laughing. Thinkin if your gonna be a dick on the road, go ahead and smash your own car.
At this point I caught up to the car at the next lights.
It was Mark “chopper” Read.
Jesus.
Luckily my yelling at him sounded more like a cheer, like I was stoked on his driving skills.
Legs were shakin hoping he wasn’t gonna swerve at me next light. Argh!!!
Saw 3 of those huge unicycles on the ATB ride today, passed the dude on the big green one on the bridge descent. Fun enough bombing it on the fixie, but on a unicycle?
Asked for a skid but he seemed preoccupied :evil:.
(he was smiling but in that FAAAARRRRKKKKK!! sort of way)
Zing!
3! fuck maybe its the next hipster craze already
to the black fix with pink oury’s and pink deep v’s locked up out the front of the apartment block on Palmerston ave, check out what sign posts you lock your bike to a little more carefully, i could of lifted that thing off and walked away with your bike in about a 30 seconds and it would be a shame coz that thing looked nice!
last day in perth. saw 2 brown charge plugs out front of flying scotsman. and later tonight got a guy with a white conversion to do a skid for me. raaaddddddd
That is fucking awesome.
:-o
now THAT is a missed connection! (perhaps also fortunately it was a ‘missed’ one too…)
Chopper drives a Merc? Why am I disappointed?
a while back, there were lost dog posters all around smith st.
“dog lost - reward $100 and a favour from chopper”
i wanted to steal one so bad, but was scared that he’d catch me doing it.
The blue frame with risers that I tailed down Bridge Rd. I was on your wheel right up to the red light you ran in front of about 20 cars, all of whom probably now think all cyclists are arseholes.
Its ok, they already thought all cyclist are assholes.
Someone getting round on a white frame on York St this morning right outside the QVB around 10am.
Didn’t really get a good look, was too busy rushing back to my bike to get back to work.
One day I’ll have the balls to request a skid

Get out of it! What the hell are you lurkers looking at all the time?
Just got back from a weekend in Melbourne.
Friday night around 6:30pm: Grabbing a beer with Mrs Ant at the corner hotel, you came in in a mapei hat, assume it was your Aqua frame with potato parked out front?
Saturday: Spent arvo in Fixroy. Should I even bother?
Two that come to mind were at the corner of Gertrude and Brunswick around 3pm, one was carrying a spare wheel, and the other was an Asian dude with a dirty mustache, black frame and white wheels.
