Default WSJ has fixie article mentioning Sheldon's site

Once again, Sheldon Brown points--er, leads the way!


The number of hits sheldonbrown.com generates must be astronomical.
Cycling enthusiasts I've met over the years, during casual
conversations, almost invariably broach Sheldon's site as the
preeminent cycling resource on the WWW.

His affiliation with Harris Cyclery notwithstanding, I've often
wondered how Sheldon resists the obvious temptation to profit from his
considerable efforts through selling adverts. No doubt the site's
renown must've generated interest from advertisers.

But how tactless to enquire of Sheldon himself! I wouldn't expect the
man to condescend to respond to such impertinence directly anyway;
replying obliquely through his collection of signatures is more in
accordance with his sense of style.

If the WSJ
mentions his site, surely they must be contemplating a flattering
piece on the collective wisdom of RBT!


Wasn't that tribute already published in the WSJ's OBIT section?
