My Take on the Iconic, Legendary, and Gospel Truths of Cycling

A New Journey Begins

Sometimes, you have to start something new. I have wanted to do this for quite some time.

The idea is to create a website that showcases the objects that make cycling what it is. I plan to sell prints of these objects to fellow enthusiasts who want to honor cycling, just like I do. The tone may be a bit tongue-in-cheek, as I jokingly refer to cycling as my religion. However, I don’t intend to take it too seriously or offend anyone.

Here it is: homagecycling.com. I have a lot to do, many details to figure out, and a long journey ahead to build something meaningful.

The Plan for the Site

My plan is straightforward. I aim to write about and add products to the online store, marketing them in the best way I can.

The store will feature items I consider to be:

• Iconic

• Legendary

• Gospel

  
  

Iconic Items

The "Iconic" category will focus on singular items that stand out. These are the treasures of the biking world. Think of a unique bike model, an exceptional component, or even the perfect jersey.

These items capture the essence of cycling. They evoke nostalgia and admiration from cyclists around the globe. Each item has a story to tell, and I aim to share that with my audience.

Legendary Collections

The "Legendary" section will look at groups of items. This could be caps, bottles, or gear that cyclists collectively celebrate.

Such collections become icons in their own right. They represent shared experiences among cyclists. They bring people together as they embody the spirit of cycling culture. I find joy in exploring and sharing these legendary items.

The Gospel of Cycling

The "Gospel" category will feature words and phrases associated with cycling.

These sayings resonate deeply within the cycling community. They capture the passion, struggles, and triumphs of cyclists everywhere. Whether it's a quote from a legendary cyclist or a commonly used phrase, these elements create a sense of connection. They transform cycling from a mere activity to a lifestyle.

A Passionate Homage

This website is my way of paying homage to what I love about cycling. I want to share my passion and make connections with others who feel the same way.

I hope to build a community of cycling enthusiasts. Not just to sell, but to engage in discussions and share stories. My ultimate goal? To sell enough to buy a vintage Colnago!

If everything goes exceptionally well, I might even consider building a real shrine to cycling.

Join the Journey

As I embark on this journey, I welcome you to join me. Explore the site, share your thoughts, and perhaps discover items that resonate with your cycling adventures.

Whether you’re a seasoned pro or just starting, there’s something special about cycling. There’s a bond that grows through shared experiences, laughter, and love for the ride.

Let’s celebrate cycling together. Visit homagecycling.com and see what unfolds as I build this homage to cycling.
