Sheldon Brown

Sheldon Brown died Sunday evening. If you have the even the slightest interest in cycling, you know how big a loss this is. There are already many, many eloquent remembrances floating across the internet with, I'm sure, many more to come.

I'd just like to say 'Goodbye Sheldon and Godspeed.'

Toys in the Attic

Cleaned up the attic a little - thought I'd share a few pictures.

Fuso for sale

One in, one out... I'm still looking for a new home for my Fuso. It's a 56cm - check out Dave Moulton's website to get details on sizing. I can send more pictures and measurements for those interested. Really pretty frame, just a little too big.



email to taztaylor@mindspring.com for more info.

thanks,

happy new year

Happy New Year to all! Couple of days late but it took a while for my fingers to thaw.

Started off the new year with the annual New Year's Day ride from Bike South. 35 degreesF at 9am with wind around 15-20mph. Good stuff. Cut it short after the beignet and coffee stop at Huey's, but still got in about 25 miles.

Couch potato for the rest of the day, watched Georgia beat up on Hawaii in the Sugar Bowl. Go Dawgs!

New Year's resolution: Ride more, buy less. Complain less, work less, play more.

More jerseys and shirts for sale

Zoic, Canari and Craft jerseys and cycling shirts.

Craft jersey - worn maybe twice. $35

Zoic long sleeve fleece jersey. This is a synthetic fleece jersey, not wool. Zippered back pocket, excellent condition. $35

Canari 'SportWool' Jersey. I think I wore this once or twice. Sportwool is the same fabric that Rapha uses in their winter jerseys. $40

Zoic casual cycling shirts. Fits similar to a polo shirt. Doesn't look like a cycling jersey but has an extended tail and pockets on the back ... as well as a small zippered pocket on the front where the Zoic label is sewn. Mostly cotton. I wore these with jeans to work and no one noticed they were bike shirts.
$20 for both.

All the jerseys are in excellent condition and have been worn very little - no stains, rips or other problems. The two shirts have been worn a good bit, mainly as casual wear instead of on bike. Probably not crisp enough for office wear now but more that good enough for on the bike.
All shirts/jerseys are size large. Shipping *is* included in price.

thanks

Holland

Recent find on eBay.

I was reading a recent thread on the Serotta forum about the perils of eBay. The general sentiment seemed to be the various scams, shills and hassles make buying there not worth the trouble. I think it depends on what you're looking for and maybe a little luck - and using some common sense.


Sorry - but you won't find this one any longer. It's at my local bike shop getting a headset installed. (I've gotta get a headset press sometime.)
