why would one direction on a circular route be faster?
because of the hills, the junctions, the one way system and the layout of the stations. Plus it's not a circle.
Mainly the hills in this case.
anti clockwise = A long decent stretching over half the course with a short steep finish.
clockwise = short fast steep decent to first station then flat or gradual uphill for the rest of it.
Cuppa T, on Queen Margaret Drive, about an hour ago. He did a nice skid for me. Thanks fella!
Plurabelle - QM drive on the dog n bone.
Weird, a different girl on a different single-speed red shopper, on Buchanan street. This bike was older looking, and had 'shopper' handily written on it.
Nice oldish bright blue (but geared) Bob Jackson in town.
Today I saw plurabelles scot outside Tapa.
rusty:Today I saw plurabelles scot outside Tapa.
If it was a blue scot it wasn't mine - i've been riding the red and white briton. That was outside tapa for a bit today, though. I *did* see a blue fixed locked to the railings there but i didn't get a close look.
So there's another blue fixed parking outside tapa then. Interesting...
rusty, phunkymunky and dickie going along past the gazelle toward the west end last night. i caught up with dickie for a bit of a blether.
Dude on a chrome plug on alexandra parade about 5ish heading east. Also a guy pushing a pastel blue fix with silver drops past the Salvation army furniture store across from kelvinall station.
guy on a blue kona about 5.20 today on govan rd.
plurabelle:Couple of the courier guys at George square, one on his bike, the other walking alongside the road. Their general foxy courier-ness slightly dented by the fact that one of them was blatantly with their mum :D
Oh, and not a fixed, but a proper roadie type on a cervelo - it was only a short stretch, along langside avenue, but I overtook him just before turning off and he laughed in a sort of wry way. I laughed back, it was cool. He could have probably killed me over a longer stretch but then I was at my road, so WIN :)
foxy courier-ness eh. he-llo. how you doin? and yes, we all love our mums very much, is that such a crime ;)

Someone in Central station last night just after midnight. I was with the lass and had just come back from London. Was nice to be able to wave having been down there where everyone and their parrot rides fixed and so no-one waves to anyone really. I waved and whoever waved back, tremendous.

I see a guy almost every other day around the Gorbals/Glasgow Green on a white TT bike wearing a white skin suit and aero helmet with visor.
He seems a bit overdressed for commuting....

Maybe he just fucking LOVES his work.
Although it's often best to get through the Glasgow Green/Gorbals as fast as possible.....

He could be doing a morning run before work every day.

euan:I saw a guy commuting on a Cervelo. That I don't get.

No they are just really expensive.

Maybe he spent so much on it he makes himself ride it every day......or his wife does.
thats 'gingham'
Thanks. I knew there was a better word for it, but I couldn't think of it.

P-series are. S-series are aero road bikes and the R-series are lightweight climbing bikes. I'd love to build a fixed gear S1.

I'd also love a high-end fixed conversion. I don't know if he still has it, but Scott-not-Scott from the London forum had a Storck (Fascenario, I think) conversion.

I always liked the idea of using Record Ergo levers and a single ringed Record carbon chainset.
