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.

 Gravel Tire Tread Patterns Are Not Very Important: Monday July 28th, 2025 - An opinion on why I think tread patterns are overrated and what really matters about tires instead. 

Thoughts On The Velo Orange Chessie: Tuesday, July 29th, 2025 - I take a close look at the new aluminum framed Velo Orange Chessie gravel/adventure bike.  

Two Things: Saturday, July 26th, 2025 - This "Two Things" post was all about how road bikes are evolving into the gravel bike territory.  

Friday News And Views: Friday, July 25th, 2025 - The ever-popular FN&V returns to the Top Five. Honestly, with the dearth of news lately I was worried I wasn't going to get much content for this article and I thought it was a kind of lame FN&V. As far as these articles go, it was actually one of the better ones from a readership standpoint. Who knows....?  

Following The Numbers:  Wednesday, July 30th, 2025 - This article speaks to what I am seeing as the potential "big stories" of 2025. At least from the viewpoint of what gets read on this blog. And it all has to do with inflation. No! Not the economic type! 

That's what you folks have been hitting up here this past week. Oddly enough, nothing from a previous week, month, or year showed up on the Top Five this time. But I bet this will change next week! Thank you for reading Guitar Ted Productions!
