Awful news! Like many I have found his website very helpful. I hope it
can be continued. My best wishes at this sad time to his family.
I also shall be naming my bike, a Langster, "Sheldon" in his honour.
R.I.P. Sheldon, and thank you.

I think the quoted bit in the original post summed it up nicely,
"It's hard to know what to say:".

I just came across this a few moments ago. In a little while I'll think
of something appropriate to say, maybe. Just now, I can't.

As everyone has said, he'll be greatly missed.

The Bike Show is planning a tribute programme and invites audio comments:
http://thebikeshow.net/2008/02/05/pa...sheldon-brown/
"Sheldon Brown, the mighty, generous and wonderfully eccentric repository
of so much bicycle knowledge, has died."

"Sheldon's wife Harriet sent out mail this morning saying that Sheldon
Brown died of a massive heart attack last night."

A huge help and inspiration to (presumably) thousands like myself who
never knew him. Sadly too late to thank him now.

I'll remember him every time I clean my chain with the "Sheldon Shake".

A sad day.
