Early in 2008, the Cycling Community lost a legendary technical authority, mechanic, webmaster, humorist, and all-around smart guy Sheldon (Genius, But Modest) Brown. Those of you who have followed his web site, magazine articles or had the privilege to meet him, will surely miss him. For those of you who never had the pleasure of meeting Sheldon or following his voluminous publications, we offer this sample of Sheldon's writings in tribute to his passing and his passion for what we all have in common - A Love of All Things Bicycle. His marvelous and creative mind produced some of the most insightful, practical and humorous articles on cycling you will ever read.
