Happy New Year! Welcome Back!

Happy New Year! Welcome Back!

Happy New Year, and welcome back. I hope everyone had a terrific holiday season, nice family time, good sleep, as much exercise as you could squeeze in, and (in the U.S.) some good football watching. Here’s wishing you all a happy and prosperous 2018!

Alas, there was a bug running through my household, so I was limited on some of those things (though not the football watching!).

I’m on the mend this week and hustling, with the short week, to get the newsletter out in full.

If you happen to be in one of the many states currently in the deep freeze, stay warm wherever you are!—J.M.

Please Support RBR!

As I noted before the holiday break, I have consciously chosen NOT to add to your burden by sending an extra email this time of year asking for your support. Rather, I’m doing so now as part of this regular issue.

If you are a current Premium Member, I sincerely thank you for your support! If your Membership has expired, I ask you to please consider renewing. And if you’ve never supported RBR as a Premium Member, why not give yourself a little gift and do so now?

We work extremely hard to bring you 48 issues a year. And we simply cannot do it without your financial support.

My Simple Request:

Please consider supporting RBR by becoming a Premium Member. Premium Members are our primary financial support — we honestly could not exist with them. If you are already a Premium Member, or simply don’t wish to support RBR directly, then please consider supporting our long-time advertisers, Bicycling Art and Tailwind Nutrition, who also play a role in keeping us going. Thank you for being a Premium Member and/or reader! —John Marsh
