Sheldon Brown - RIP

I just learned that Sheldon Brown died February 3rd.

Probably the most important person to fixed gear bikes in the United States after Major Taylor.

I can't even tell you how many hours I spent in online conversation with this man. En-cycle-opedic knowledge of all things bike, but especially all things fixie.

A good man; proud of his family and proud of intellect in a way I have always admired.
