LET'S JUST SAY THAT IT SPEAKS FOR ITSELF. WITHIN A 5 MINUTE CONVERSATION, THE UNSPOKEN AGREEMENT THAT LED A RAG-TAGGLED GROUP OF BIKE FANATICS TO COMMIT TO THE MONIKER SPAWNED POSSIBLY THE MOST POSITIVELY IMPACTFUL MOVEMENT IN THE FIXED-GEAR BIKE COMMUNITY TO DATE.
2 HOURS LATER, ONE OF THE VERY SAME FOUNDERS WAS GETTING FRESH KNUCKLE TATTOOS IN A FINE PIKE FONT THAT READ, "VELO SHIP". DONE DEAL. SOME THINGS MERIT GREAT THOUGHT AND CONTEMPLATION. OTHERS, ONLY A MERE FEELING AND FAITH. THE VELOSHIP HAS SPAWNED FROM THE LATTER. IF YOU HAVE TO ASK WHY... WELL, THEN YOU OBVIOUSLY WILL NOT BE CLUED IN, BECAUSE THIS IS A THING OF GREAT BEAUTY. A THING OF IMMENSE PASSION. AND NOW, AFTER A SPARK OF FAITH... A THING OF GREAT WORKS. AFTER ALL, FAITH WITHOUT WORKS IS DEAD.
BEHOLD, I SAW A STIFF HORSE... AND ON THIS HORSE RODE A ONE LIKE THE COUNTENANCE OF THE SUN, EVER SHINING- BRIGHT WITH THE FEVER OF OPTIMISM AND TRUST THAT SOME THINGS WERE, ARE AND ALWAYS WILL BE... DESTINED. KISMET. AND HERE MY BELOVED, WE HAVE THE BIRTH OF 'VELO SHIP'. ENJOY YOUR RIDE.
