i want the job of highspeed pursuit bike cop.
just waiting for a sprint.

the city equivalent of the corvette pursuit highway patrol type deely.

Whether staged or not I am not sure. I have been involved in a confrontation where firearms were involved. If you are gonna hit someones car you better make sure you can either get away or have an inclination to violence. It's not worth it.

Thanks for the camera!!!!! I love it, fake or not!!!!

hehehe.. nice reference.

I posted a somewhat buried link to this a while back, but I don't know if anyone bothered to watch.. I like it though, well done. Plus the current talk of riding through traffic and cops reminded me of it:

"Outlaw in Lycra" has got to be the lamest name for anything ever.

yeah, and that's the best an expensive contract with some big ad agency can get you. ;)

(*cough* toronto unlimited *cough*)

Hey if any of you week-end racers are still about, have a great time!!!!!

about the yonge street fallacy: i grew up with that "fact" constantly pounded into my head in elementary school.

about spending money on bike parts: there's a guy on craiglist who used to race in toronto and europe (mid 80s early 90s) and he's getting rid of all his road-related crap. marriage, a baby, and medical school will tend to do that. anyhoo, he's got a lot of stuff which has probably been picked through. a got campy cranks, brakesets, seatpost, BBs, cinelli stems, another stronglight headset, mavic open 4cd clinchers/mavic hubs with conti tires.. what the hell am i going to do with a dura-ace freewheel....he even threw in some old campy wool jerseys FO CHEAP. nice guy, chatty.. his parents basically don't want any of his junk in their house and he's liquiding. the stuff's well taken care of.. he wrenches as well as races.. and almost everything is mid 80s campy/dura-ace. if anyone needs anything email him cliffhoo@yahoo.com

Is that the result OR the agency?

the result.. you didn't see all the bs related to that? $4 million dollars gets you a rip off of another city's tourism marketing attempt.. http://www.torontounlimited.ca/

Here's a good overview: http://www.igorinternational.com/blo...don-unlimited/

I remember it happening but I stopped looking because it was beginning to hurt.
Brand Architecture International....with a name like that you know you're getting screwed over.

Yeah, I got a couple of chainrings from him the other day...no track stuff though. Good prices but yeah, chatty.

woo.. 12-OCT-06 DJ SHADOW

I am outta here! Have a great weekend all. If any of you are awake at 4 A.M. sat say a little good luck prayer for me as I race around with more beer in me than I should really have.

Keep the rubber side down... Or don't, its up to you! Good luck to all the racers! I think I'm going to end up at IKEA with my parents. SWEET!

anyone up for ride/beer at all this weekend?

Single Speed's at Stores?
 

This thread seems to be mostly about fixed, but I'm more interested in a single speed (I have an artificial leg, and can't always pedal). I didn't want to clutter the whole board, so I thought since I live downtown Toronto, I'd post here.

Does anyone know stores that sell single speed bikes? I likely could make my own, but I know that I won't. Most stores I've been into don't sell anything single speed, but I am likely going to the wrong stores, since I randomly go to different stores.

if anyone could help I'd appreciate it.

I'm actually in Quebec City after riding my geared bike from Vancouver and heading to Halifax, but this gives me something to think about while riding every day (http://www.cyclingforcancer.ca)

respect man thats cool!

talk to Keith @ cavern Cycles I got my first fixie from there and Im sure he can hook you up...
