I never knew him personally but I knew his site and
his wealth of Bike knowledge and always wanted to meet
the guy because he seemed eccentric and funky and a
real lover of bikes. His name is Sheldon Brown and he
loved bikes and I think it might be nice to have a
little memorial to him at Critical Mass and those who
enjoy traveling might check out his memorial ride up
in New England in West Newton, Mass.
Here is the info and his website

Hello All,
As many already know, there will be a Memorial Service
for Sheldon this coming Sunday, March 2 at 1:30pm. It
will be at the First Unitarian Society of Newton,
across the street from Harris Cyclery.

Details and a map link are at  www.harriscyclery.com

Prior to the service there will be a memorial ride
starting and ending at the shop:

Meet at 10:45 AM in the parking lot behind Harris
Cyclery for an informal memorial ride before the
service. Departure will be at 11:00. Distance:
approximately 25 miles, pace slow to moderate. The
ride will go by way of Weston to Water Row in Sudbury
(water level permitting!), one of Sheldon's favorite
places to ride, and will return by way of Lincoln.

Fixed gears, hub gears, whatever you've got, are all
welcome.

Please pass the word.
