this is amazing. Thank you for sharing this. His tree-climbing story is especially harrowing!
"Charlie Cunningham is in the top two smartest bike people who’ve ever lived"
Blog entry in 2017 mentioning Charlie's bikes being the exception to aesthetic deficiencies of aluminum.
I liked this bit In the RR27 Interview you posted:
Bikes are just completely awesome! They’re the perfect
means for “right living”. They’re ridiculously efficient and
inexpensive to use, both from an environmental and dollar
standpoint. They make people healthy and happy and they
free us from the tyranny of cars and the guilt of waste. Of
course there’s a time and place for cars but most of us use
them too much.
the whole thing is just so good.
