"Given his reputation of lacking people skills, I don't think I'll ask him to. Anyone brave enough?"
Bruce is a great guy and funny to boot. I'll grant that he *can be* a little ornery, but I think that's just his way of filtering conversations.
Anyone who saw the bike he had this year at Interbike can tell you there is lots Bruce could teach all of us - that bike was amazing and the more you studied it, and as it slowly dawned on you what you were seeing, the more amazing it became. To me, the best part of all is that I think he built that bike as a statement to all who were critical simply because he primarily builds tig bikes. Just my opinion, not necessarily based in fact.
