Here's what I moved. If you want to make a wiki page called fakenger, go ahead. But put in the right place.


 * ''A Fakenger is a copycat of a london bicycle messenger. They ride fixed wheels and dress in a hipster uniform.  The uniform consists of rolled up jeans or tight jeans,  a courier style bag and a cycling hat.  You can spot the difference from a real courier by lack of radio, relative sobriety and clean fingernails. Oddly they all seem to be of slight build.  They like to fashion themselves on a messenger.  The word fakenger was created by Buffalo Bill.  Buffalo Bill was a London bicycle messenger for years and is now a controller at a courier company.  He created a blogg for london messengers called Movingtargetzine and it was here he started the term Fakenger.  The term was first derogatory but is now accepted as a descriptive word in messenger circles.  Fakengers sprung up at the same time that commuting in London became fashionable.  They started to appear about 2 years ago and now there are many.  There seems to be a lot of Fakengers living in Hackney.  The fakengers have a forum called londonfixedgearandsinglespeed.  They like to chat about repairing punctures and chain tension.  They also like to take photos of their bikes and upload them onto the forum."  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Buffalo Bill (talk • contribs) 17:09, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
