The PE x VC Gigacycle is Fully Underway We've been working on this strategy for years and now it's clear/finally a thing. Lots of people are doing it and literally everyone is talking about. But there are still immutable laws of gravity and startups

I was wrong abt bicycles. Once you get into cycling, a ghost takes hold of your brain & gets you to "upgrade" & accumulate more & more expensive equipment, faster & lighter bikes, & it feels awkward to not wear the uniform. Life would be very boring if it were rational.

Cyclists overpay for uncomfortable lighter bikes w/fragile thin wheels that can go faster with less effort per mile. They claim they bike to get fitter, not realizing they then should have bicycles that require more effort per mile. Actually Pelotons require infinite work/mile.

Will the phrase “at the end of the day” ever *not* be a trope of reality TV?

Experiment Update - Well it finally happened. Took longer than expected. 12 hour suspension and had to delete the offending tweet. Here’s the screenshots @suspendthepres. Will post to the account when suspension is lifted.
