Be sure to visit the
Sheldon Brown memorial for your comments. Harris Cyclery says a memorial service will be scheduled for March. I'm sure it will be huge.
One of the best obituaries I read came from Sheldon's friend
John Allen, who is himself a very well regarded cyclist advocate in Massachusetts and a director at the League of American Bicyclists. Chico Gino posts Allen's words
at his blog. Rich Kelly recounts his
personal encounter with Sheldon Brown at Interbike, including some great photos of Sheldon proclaiming "IT'S ALIVE!" when asked about 3 speed internal hubs. Jenna Wortham mentions Sheldon in the
WIRED blog yesterday, with links out a couple of other blog mentions (among hundred posted this week) and info about a planned memorial ride.
Here's a badge from
