Very funny Bikesnob

[paczki]

This is from his latest suggestions for cycling-related cable tv shows:

"The Jobst Brandt Show

The irrascible author of “The Bicycle Wheel” begrudgingly allows guests into his home and systematically berates them while extolling the virtues of non-anodized rims. His imperious browbeatings are interspersed with impossibly tall tales of his Alpine cycling exploits such as: the time he descended so quickly his brake pads burst into flames; the time he found himself without a spare tube, killed a bear, and fashioned one from its intestines; and the time he accidentally created the Loire river by dragging his frame pump behind him."

"Commuting by bicycle can be like standing in line for a taco of annoyance from the clusterfuqueria."

[Too Tall]

"Jobst walked to an inviting pool of water and looked down. "I see a couple of newts," he said. Marc went over to investigate, coaxing the newts into activity. "Don't worry," Jobst said, "they have to come up for air."

[Speaking of newts. On one ride Jobst put a newt into the water bottle of the Bike Barb, a well-known San Francisco rider. The Barb was not amused.]"

"Don't worry," Jobst said, "they have to come up for air."

Moving from funny to terrifying. I'm not sure why exactly.
