Weekly Top Five

 Welcome to the weekly Top Five" showing links to five of the week's most read articles on the blog.
Sometimes those will be current posts, but sometimes not. I will also post commentary with perspective on some of the older posts, and try to give some context as to why I wrote what I wrote then, which may not reflect what I'd say in 2025. With all of the above said, here is this week's list.

Lost In The Transaction: Thursday, July 10th, 2025 - This was a post I said was "dangerous to write" because... well to be honest, I knew some folks wouldn't understand it,  or where I was coming from. But, I care about gravel cycling, so I wrote what I wrote. 

A Pictorial Review Idea: Wednesday, July 9th, 2025 - An idea for a showing of imagery from Trans Iowa. Heck, like N.Y. Roll suggested, why not make a showing of imagery from many early gravel events, and donate the whole she-bang to the Gravel Cycling Hall of Fame at the end of it all? Yeah, great ideas, but I am done organizing events, including pictorial reviews, art showings, or the like. So, my point was to throw the idea out there and to present my "good things" and "bad things" in relation to actually doing something like this.  Now if another event does this in the future, just know you read it here first, and it wasn't my idea.

Crazy Idea: Update - Tuesday, July 8th, 2025 - The Singular Buzzard idea is being put into play. I should have another update on this soon. Gotta wait to dry out the basement after 8 hours of heavy rains in the span of 36 hours. 

WTB Solano Saddle Review: Final Verdict - Monday, July 7th, 2025 -  Hey....anyone else noticing a pattern here? Maybe it is just me.....

The Tree In The Road Ride report: Technical Snafu's And Heat: Tuesday, July 1st, 2025 - The main part of the TITRR report. I am still so glad I was able to sneak out of town for this ride, despite it being shorter than I'd have liked it to be. 

That's a wrap on what people were checking out here on the site this week. Thank you for reading Guitar Ted Productions.
