I love retro pages like this. Also, a fan of motorcycles and enjoying the intersection between the two.
I was doing some work on linux metrics and was also reviewing (http://sebastien.godard.pagesperso-orange.fr/tutorial.html http://sebastien.godard.pagesperso-orange.fr/tutorial.html), another cute retro page. It's rare to see two interesting 90s-style pages in one day.
Of note, both display lots of valuable content in an easy-to-access way, load faster than anything Web 3.0, and no js. I feel like we lost some lessons along the way to here.

- fiftyacorn 6y agoSheldon's is a classic especially on older bikes or specialist parts like hub gears. Is it still maintained since Sheldon died?
- bloudermilk 6y agoYes, there is someone (a meat space friend, I believe) who keeps the site up and running and even adds new content from time to time.
