Am I that predictable?

I had a clean shave for the first time in 3 years yesterday.
It feels weird. The hairs that are growing back aren't ginger (yet.)
Might have to do this more often!

She's a beaut, Bluejam, thanks! How're you finding those disc brakes? When I went to my bike shop to ask about upgrading to them (I thought they looked cool, I'm dumb that way) they just looked at me like I was an idiot.
Monoboy - do you have one? I kind of liked them when they first came out, but was never sure whether I could ride one without feeling like a pillock - that said, I really like their integrated lock concept, that's sublime.

Oh. The Puma bike has no gears.
I need gears.
I'm like a thin fat man - deeply unhealthy. Gears are essential to my continued existence.

"How're you finding those disc brakes?"

Get the Copenhagen or MN (Marc Newson) Both slick bikes..
The Brooklyn bike looks fun too, but not for commuting

Cül schtuff - they said they were a bit strong for city riding, but I wondered why that should be - for me, brakes that work in the rain and don't need constant ..um.. squishing (to get water off) sounds like a great idea.
And they Look Cool.

Oooh, they look real sweet, designerror - maybe a little too expensive? What I wouldn't give to own a piece of Marc Newsom design though, if I could. Despite not really liking that one. The Copenhagen model's a beauty.
They don't appear to sell in the UK either.

just buy it via Ireland and bike home!
$999 is a bit expensive I agree...
the Newson bike is somewhere in the £4000 area... but it's sooooo sweet!

I'm thinking of buying one, not sure what they're like to cycle.

I had this one for a couple of years. Best bike evar..

My grandpa gave it to me, when he got too old to ride it. It's now stored away for restoration in the future...

those are rad. say, jens, what's the name of that striking bike that you see in denmark? not the cristainia bike with the box on the front, but the one that i think that one is based on. with the sort of tension wires suspending the seat? am i making any sense at all? they're mad expensive, though, i think. something like £1500.
