This is a great loss. Condolances to his family.

The man was responsible for eliminating more deraillers than any other person on Earth.

As advised by Sheldon, I printed, cut and taped gearing ratios on my stem. Everytime I see that, I will remember Sheldon.

Apparently there's a memorial in March. Boston is not too far from New York.

We're all poorer for his passing. The great man has gone but his legacy remains in many of us.

RIP Sheldon Brown
