Kyle McKinley, I love that I can open an e-mail and read that anyone is someone's "favorite living bicycle thinker".
Thank you for having a catagory of "bicycle thinkers" in your head, for having favorites, and for having so many favorites that they must be subcatagorized into "living" and, presumably, "dead" 'bicycle thinkers'.
Reading your post cheered me up and made me feel that the world is a good place.
I think I'll go read Mr. Brandt on wheels right now. It just became the most important thing on my to-do list.
Kudos to all Americans for your historic Presidential slate-- Obama-Biden, McKinney-Clemente, Nader-Gonzalez, even McCain-Palin, despite the shudder that one gives me--has everyone seen the photos of Barak Obama riding his bike around Chicago like a regular commuter cyclist?

Mr. Brandt is my favorite living bicycle thinker. His posting on wheels (fully catalogued on the web) make for incredibly interesting and entertaining reading. Unlike most everyone else out there, Brandt is a engineer, with no links to the industry. He's exactly the kind of grumpy old codger that we need in this scene, and I've never known him to be wrong. Thanks for these reposts... His gruff responses make me laugh out loud. -kyle

Speaking of Jobst, he has an FAQ on Sheldon's site:

Lots of good reading (and opinions) there.
