Bike Industry Scandal: Plagiarism Abounds, Nearly 4 people care!

Be sure to scroll down and read the comments. It's a subset of a subset of a niche, but it's about bikes and writing about bikes so it's right up my alley. Enjoy, and remember kids: speak your mind, do your own research, develop your own voice, wear your heart on your sleeve, and never plagiarize. Lest you end up like "Toolbag" Tyler here (his nickname, not one I anointed).

Kudos to James Huang for finally calling this guy out.
