Remembering Sheldon Brown
On February 3rd, 2008 the cycling world lost a great friend and technical guru.
Sheldon Brown, (1944 - 2008) world renown for generously giving his expert cycling knowledge and guidance to cyclists everywhere (sheldonbrown.com) has passed on into the great cycling land in the sky. His may have left us physically but his memory will live on.
I would like to offer my personal condolences to his family, friends and all of my fellow cyclists who have been touched by Sheldon. Although I never had the pleasure of meeting Sheldon I felt that I knew something of the man from reading his articles and admiring his photography, and I have relied on Sheldon’s cycling wisdom and experience for nearly a decade and I will genuinely miss his gift of sharing his passion for cycling, his keen sense of humor and his interesting wit.
May you rest in peace and enjoy the great gig in the sky!
Gary
