Gunnar, Thanks for passing this on. Sheldon's interests went well beyond the bounds of the "normal" cycling industry. He was well known in the recumbent and HPV communities - even in the paranormal (for his April Fool's day product announcements). I met him once at a recumbent rally and he's always been the guy I go to when we get a bike or part at the shop that I can't identify. His passion, knowledge, interest, humor and generosity were an inspiration.
Have a great riding day. Nick

I'm sure Nick knows by now- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sheldon_Brown_(bicycle_mechanic)
But anyone who's interested in cycling and just *living* should look at any and all of his stuff. It's a sad day.
