TWEED – THE ORIGINAL PERFORMANCE FABRIC
* article from www.rapha.cc

RANDOLPH ENGINEERING’S FACTORY, RANDOLPH,...
Article from www.goruck.com

Grown Man Style aka GMS
Who would have thought that GMS has become so pervasive in the blogosphere!
Every other day I get messages asking what GMS is or the rules behind GMS.
So I will do a weekly post detailing in bad grammar & spelling with MostExerent pictures about GMS.
In the mean time I asked EthanDesu to write about GMS as we both are firm believers of this yet execute it differently. Also, Ethan has a way...
