Earlier in the year a number of us who are regulars on

the UK's largest and oldest cycling organisation (125 years this
year), proposed a motion to the CTC honouring Sheldon Brown for his
tireless work.



Nice, very nice and thanks for thinking of doing this!
Congratulations, Sheldon.



How about we declare a "Sheldon Brown Appreciation Day"? Does anyone
in Mass. have time to organize a parade? We can all ride in
formation with our POWerwheels and Real Man saddles.
April 1 seems like an appropriate day.

Actually, Sheldon has done quite a lot of work with tires.

If a Real Man Saddle is a requirement, I'll just cheer from the sidelines.

Hi Stella

Well, SBAD is rather tricky to pronounce. However, SAD - Sheldon's
Appreciation Day - does click quite well ! ;-)

I do admit to having taking the stuff out of Sheldon in the past. I
also do admit that he certainly knows what he's on about and is indeed
a funny chap, especially since he's shaved. ;-)

"Sorry mate, I didn't see you" is not a satisfactory excuse.

Goodness me!
I started this thread 4 years ago and it's resurfaced!
You have to be careful of what you say in case it's resurrected and
used as evidence against you.
I wonder if anyone wants to dig up those helmet arguments I used to
have with Tom Kunich?

Anyway, good on you Sheldon, it's people like you that keep the world
turning in the right direction.

C'mon now - if it was up to Sheldon, the world would turn in the LEFT
direction. ;-)

But I still think he's "da man"... congrats, Sheldon!
