I notice Jobst hasn't posted a picture up there as yet. Maybe he doesn't
have a suitable image to hand?

Jobst's location is known to all, and yet a mystery. Some claim
to have seen him on Mt. Hamilton Rd in the blinding sun, and some
say he emerged from a fog on Skyline. Yet others saw him riding
through a blizzard cresting the Passo di Gavia. I once saw him
on Alpine Road, but perhaps it was a trick of the light, dappled as
I descended in and out of the shade of the trees. On group rides,
grizzled veterans tell stories of how Jobst rode to the summit
of Mount Diablo before there was a road, so long ago that he was
still using tubular tires. Some say there is no Jobst, that it is a
spook story old men make up to frighten children and metallurgists.
Others say that Jobst is an immanence, that every time a rider
breaks a freewheel axle, Jobst is there.
Who am I to judge? Yet I do not think even a Google-derived
website will suffice to answer the question.

"Spook story" was a nod to this quote:
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0114814/quotes
scroll down about 2/3 or search for "spook story"
And I really have seen Jobst, or at least an avatar thereof,
on Alpine Road (the flat part down by the creek). He's hard
to miss - he always wears a natty cycling cap, and as I said in
some other thread, is about eight feet tall and rides a seven
foot yellow bike.
