Sheldon Brown - such a loss

Wow, what a huge loss to the cycling community as a whole. So sad.

How sad. That's no age at all these days. Sheldon's contribution to the cycling world is as vast as will be the void left by his passing.
Ride on, "Captain Bike".

You ladies have already said everything I felt on hearing this very sad news, but I wanted to add my appreciation for Sheldon and his devotion to the world of cycling as well. I hope that he went in peace.

What a tremendous loss for the cycling community. My thoughts and prayers are with his family, friends and loved ones.

How sad, what a sad loss. I really enjoyed going through his website and learning so many things about riding and bikes and just life in general. If it weren't for him, I would've never created my single speed or even new what I had. He will be greatly missed.

Oh, no! What a huge loss.

Oh so sad. There will never be another one like him. I've learned so much from his site. He will be missed by all.:(

:(

RIP Sheldon.

I'm honored to have set my wheels on the same planet.

Oh no! This is so sad. My heart goes out to his family and friends. As a real newbie I've recently spent a lot of time on his website and found it so incredibly valuable. What a profound loss for the cycling community.

Oh man! I am so sorry to hear this. Our prayer's go out to he's family and friends and to all that he touched with his wisdom of biking!

Well, I’m stunned… my sadness joins so many others
