					<description><![CDATA[Tradition and innovation sit mostly comfortably alongside each other in Cycling. The bicycle itself is inherently a very simple machine, the basic design of which has remained the same for centuries; frame, two wheels, cranks, saddle, handlebars. It&#8217;s what has been done to these elements along the way that has shaped what the modern road...]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[July 13 2014 marked the 35th anniversary of the seminal &#8216;cycling film&#8217; Breaking Away. 35 years. Nothing stays popular for that long, right? Things get dated, lose their edge (if there was edge in the first place) and eventually become irrelevant (I&#8217;m looking at you, Rolling Stones). Yes, even legends get stale if left out too...]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Before Tomac and Ned, before LeMond and Big Mig, there was Bob Hannah. For a young lad obsessed with motorcycles as well as bicycles, the &#8216;Hurricane&#8217; was the epitome of style on a bike. His bright yellow Yamaha YZs and matching head-to-toe kit set the bar and inspired me to emulate not only his style on...]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[There was a time when I held down &#8216;real jobs&#8217;. Jobs with (a little) stress, with (some) responsibility, but without soul. And while dealing with the great unwashed never held much appeal, I always envied the guys who worked at my preferred LBS. They seemingly had it all&#8211;an endless supply of cheap bikes and parts, hanging out...]]></description>

He rode a Colnago C-50 which was so filthy that I was unable to ascertain with any degree of certainty what color it was painted.

Of course it&#8217;s about the bike, otherwise we&#8217;d be runners. But there are other factors that contribute to what makes us Cyclists which can often be overlooked completely.

					<description><![CDATA[The saddle has got to be the most important piece of equipment for the cyclist when it comes to comfort and performance. If your ass is rubbing the wrong way, causing chafing and sores, or all circulation is cut off rendering you unable to locate vital organs for nature breaks, then it&#8217;s fair to say...]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Even as a Pre-Cambrian Velominatus, the rusty wires in my brain must have made the connection between my machine&#8217;s aesthetics and the lack of a saddle bag; I can&#8217;t remember a time when I rode with a European Posterior Man Satchel. But riding without a saddle bag means the tools go in the pocket, and that means great...]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[By now you&#8217;ve probably figured out that our Reverence series is not about reviewing gear in the classic review sense.

					<description><![CDATA[Maybe it&#8217;s my mountain bike background.  It could be the brand&#8217;s long association with Thomas Frischknecht, one of my all-time favourite riders.  It&#8217;s more likely that they are light, look great and don&#8217;t cost the earth.  Whatever the reason, there&#8217;s something about Ritchey 4 Axis stems that just does it for me when it comes...]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Helmets became mandatory in professional road racing in 2003, following the tragic death of Andei Kivilev from head injuries sustained in a fall during Paris-Nice.  With the adoption of that regulation died one of the most iconic images of professional cycling: the racer riding over the high mountain passes of Europe with their eyewear perched...]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[One of the most cherished bits in my toolbox are the four rolls of 3M Electrical Tape: red, green, white, and black. In the past, I&apos;ve used off-brands, but those appear to use an adhesive that leaves a gooey residue and the tape itself seems to shrink (especially in heat) as it sits in it&apos;s...]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[There was a time when shifting was an art. Friction down-tube shifters required a finess and a light touch of the fingers; a slight overshift to pop the chain onto the cog, and then ease the shifter forward to rest the chain perfectly in its place. Over time, and with the advancement of technology, the...]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Baxter Aftershave is one of the most important cremes I have in my arsenal, aside from the testosterone rub, the alcohol swabs I use before injecting my EPO, and Butt Butter or whatever my chamois creme is called. At $15 a pop, it&#8217;s not particularly cheap, but the addition of moisturizers and antiseptic keep irritation at...]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Every mechanic has encountered a tyre/rim combination that has just been a real pain in the ass to work with. Remembering back to my early days in the shop, struggling to wrangle a particularly stubborn wire bead tyre off a wheel, my lack of experience and no doubt ham-fisted approach saw me snapping the ends...]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[The aroma. The taste. The ritual of the preparation, and the anticipation. It&#8217;s more than just a drink. Coffee is an integral part of cycling and cyclists lifestyles. But, like Campa versus Shimano, or white socks versus black, the way we imbibe the magic bean can be just as polarising. We received an email from...]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Tan lines are to the Velominatus what a drug overdose is to a rock star, or a Victoria Cross is to a returned serviceman. It&apos;s a badge of honour, and while neither of those comparisons are glorious in their deployment, the reward, or possibly even notoriety, is somehow noble. You&apos;ve gotta earn your stripes, right?...]]></description>
