it's where odd people go to feel relaxed after being beaten up in the north just for being different.

I was expecting a lot worse to be honest before clicking on the link, there's one person who sticks out like a sore thumb but the rest look like smartly/normally dressed people with suitable city bikes. Glad I do live in London if people elsewhere really are that small-minded to think that that selection of people are particularly risible!

didn't pan out how you expected did it?
smartly dressed people getting from A-B on bikes some of which might be using slightly inappropriate bikes or footwear. shocking.

Are we back to the dark ages where anyone well dressed is assumed to be gay?

my use of the term nobbers wasnt meant in a gay sense though in retrospect maybe i should have just said nobs!

[url= http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=nobber ] Nobber:
someone that has just done something really stupid
Rob smashed another vase....he is such a nobber[/url]

and if number6 is well dressed then i really am out of touch

Yep, everyone in London wears clothes similar to that when cycling.

Just as everyone oop North (past Watford) drags around a whippet(dog, not On One).

a am thisisnotaspoon's twin. well I'm not but I am northern, have a fixie and some silly expensive tshirts.

I have also met a lot more nobber and fashion obsessed mountain bikers than fixie riders.

funny how all the hate is one way.

Good morning Scruff LOL^

I see it's trendy to be a crackhead again. If London wants our crackheads, we've got about 50,000 we can spare.
