"Criminy Dutch, it's crazy to think that the year's already at a close. I know everyone says this, but I'm truly shocked... it really seemed to go by so fast. There's usually a lot going on for me at this time of year, and this year is no exception. One of the many things on my "holiday to-do" list is picking my favorite bike bits that I've reviewed throughout this last year."
"I've been on and around bikes my whole life. I've also been on and around bikes professionally for 30 years this year. I just love the bicycle and bicycle people. And, I really love talking about bikes while riding bikes with bike people. As a lifelong cyclist, I've ridden just about all there is to ride. And, I can't seem to get enough to satisfy my need to own all the bikes."
End-of-year timing prompts a task to select favorite bicycle components reviewed over the past year, a process made difficult by the number and quality of items and imperfect recall. The selector expresses surprise at how quickly the year passed and notes that every reviewed item was impressive, making choice challenging. A lifelong cyclist maintains extensive riding experience and a substantial personal bike collection including three mountain bikes, a gravel bike, an all-rounder, and three eBikes. Professional involvement spans 30 years. Family life includes a 25-year marriage, six children, and two granddaughters, with the youngest aged 28.
