    Ho. No point in getting a S3 if you are just going to stay on someone's wheel. Who the hell rides an S3 at this time of year as well?

    he didnt like it when i left him for dust on the long climb up past Gt Western Road retail park! I did absolutely hoof it though.. midweek training run!

    maybe he was doing a long long ride, maybe he was a commuter with lots of money to burn.

    do you guys mean Allison Whitehill? she didnt go to leeds Tim. she was in my year though and she is ginger -don't know if she is tall. she is taller than me but that really doesn't take alot of doing.but she is glasgow born and bread so i think it must be someone else.

    Couple of spots on my way home there tonight...

    All white bike, rolled up jeans jumping the lights and then across the road onto the pavement..... at the tower at the bottom of high street.

    Then just at the lights at the toll booth bar two bikes (both fixed i think). One of the poor guys stopped at the lights and didn't manage to get out of his clips/straps on time and toppled over - looked a sore one, would have stopped but I was on the other side of the one way and your mate was there, sorry if it was anyone on here!

    a really rusted Raleigh frame, looked like a bit of a shopper hybrid type thing, outside one of the dodgy pubs in the barras. Would make an ideal polo bike for me!

    Indeed. Mine leads the coffee bike to dinky little espressos without a moment's notice or objection. Makes a peculiar chopping noise too like a helichopper. The sheer ridiculousness of it will help greatly come the mid-life crisis, heh heh.
