Great blog by BSNYC today
 

Very appropriate, given some of the "doesnt deserve his bike", "looked like Lance so I dropped him" and other reverse-gear-snobbery that is often posted here.

linky?

Google BSNYC and it's the first hit. Very popular.

Interesting read.

But http://bikesnobnyc.blogspot.com for the lazy

I have laughed pretty hard reading BSNYC; especially when he rags on the fixies.

I dunno, I think the Mash wallet is pretty good for $7.50. My baggies rip and get messed up easily by anything pokey in my pockets like keys, CO2 head etc.

This is hilarious

Much a do about nothing if you ask me. I see what he's getting at but in the end what does it matter what someone spent on a bike and whether they're maximizing it to its potential? I think buying bikes for the well-to-do uninitiated cyclist is probably akin to buying a car for them; they walk into a shop and tell the sales person they want something with good features and that is comfortable. The sales person sensing the ability to move a higher end bike sells them a bike that fits the bill and off they go to storm the MUP. I don't know how many of them are under the impression high end bikes will improve their performance but the reality will hit them soon enough.

I was disappointed with today's article, more snark would have gone a long way.

Hey, don't skip reading the Bust Magazine piece. Hot fixie action!

I laughed at the MASH wallet. My wife keeps trying to find me something to put my phone, ID, & money in. I use a Ziploc which usually lasts about 2-3 months. She thought it looked kind of white-trash. She hasn't bought my explanation that a Ziploc is the perfect solution and would be hard to improve upon.

That guy is good.

I wish he posted here.
