Grant provided a great voice way back when (and still does) that there is an alternative to the average party line thrown at you in most bike shops. He's a quirky inconclast. Unfortunately, he frequently comes across as espousing not just another party choice in the greater scheme of things but THE Party.
Nobody is right or wrong, but personality can make the difference in changing a discussion to a sermon. Grant has a lot of value to offer, but I have to be in the right frame of mind to read his articles.
