Great to read this post Kate. Thanks for the honesty. Just putting it out there, but as a semi-retired scientist who has written many published manuscripts and also happens to be insanely obsessed with cycling, I’d be happy to offer help (unpaid too) if you need it. Derailleur is just that important!
I know business development can be overwhelming. I enjoy your writing, it is a good product. Understand your customer segment. Check the fit. And the potential scope. And the revenue model. Iterate and pivot as needed. Talk with people that understand and can help. Understand so you can do the right thing. Sincere best wishes. And I hope you can enjoy the ride.
Finally bit the bullet and paid for a yearly subscription. Since i can afford it, it just feels right to support one of the best voices in the bike world and this project. Looking forward to the oncoming season. All the best to you Kate and all the Derailleur team!
Whew and whee! Katy is back and derailleur is in my inbox.
A favourite in all the cycling I absorb from home in Canada. Always been a sucker for the long form about cycling.
Looking forward to a new season
“Closed shop”? We’re still going to get periodic essays, right?
