About the Velominati
Velominati: Keepers of the Cog.
Although the posts date back to March 2007, Velominati was launched in July 2009 as a project to join cycling fans and writers together to share their writings within the cycling community. (The older posts were moved over from the owner and founder Frank Strack’s personal blog as a jumping-off point.)
Velominati is a blog aimed at providing cycling-related content, be it of ametuer or professional racing, cycling routes, adventures, tech tips, technique, or gear reviews. As long as it relates somehow to cycling and the author feels the urge to write about it, it belongs here. The goal of Velominati is to recruit bloggers from all over the web to become contributors to this blog and to help keep the content fresh and entertaining.
The Velominati are:
Frank has been a cyclist since the 80’s and his favorite song is the soundtrack for World Cycling Productions’ 1989 Tour de France video.

Brett comes from the land Down Under. An Aussie living as a Kiwi, his life is dictated to by the bicycle.
Jim rides a bike a lot and hates people.
John bought a Peugeot; champagne gold with sew-up tires in 1976 and has been an addict ever more. Think Magnus Backstead without the big engine. A man who loves to suffer on a long cruel climb and catch all the wee folk on the descent.

Love the topics and the comments; I would rather push a bike with two flat tyres than drive a car…
Keep up the good work!
