Last summer I worked a short contract near Newton, where Sheldon lived and worked.

On my one day off, I could have driven my rental car over to Newton and perhaps have met Sheldon and shaken his hand.
I didn't, because I thought I would have time to do it later...

Thank you Sheldon for revealing the wonder and beauty of fixed gear bicycles to me.

And thank you for your informative, humorous, thoughtful, instructive and gracious writing.

You made a difference in my life.

Thank you.
