    I might not be so fast seeing as my legs aren't quite up to speed and the bike I'm on is slower.

    Gutted, quite fancy coming along to this but rear wheel has developed a strange slipping behaviour! Pull up or push back too hard/sharp and the whole drivetrain(?) slips forward about an inch, freaks the shit outta me. Oh well new polo bike should be in the post this week so it can substitute next week perhaps!

    It looks like we'll be having some pretty standard weather tonight. No rain by the looks of it, on the BBC, but black clouds. The pressure is pretty high so I doubt we'll see rain.

    I'm getting impatient. I'm in the library and intended on satying here until 5:30pm. Then I changed my mind to 5:20pm. Now I'm thinking of leaving at 5:10pm. I think new njs chain, new bar tape, centred chainring, crepes, polo courts and beer sounds like an evening well spent.

    I wouldn't be surprised if it's not the nicest weather by 6pm, but I'll only believe heavy snow when I see it!

    Yeah the roads were covered in massive puddles. Quite fun actually. Knowing that I had nothing to do apart from sleep once I got home I didn't really care about getting wet.

    Is there any chance someone could knock up a flyer for Fixed Beer and Fixed Beer II? I think it'd be good to have in the first post of each thread so that new members can get info about them quickly.

    Cheers. Two separate flyers would be my preference. Maybe with different colour schemes too (maybe they could be party ring colourways like in the spotted thread)

    Anyway. I'll stop interfering and let your creative juices flow.
