Just passing by to say I enjoyed your cycling resources, http://www.bikeshack.org/bike-links/. It’s refreshing to meet another cyclist enthusiast!
If I may interest you, we designed a morphing GIF of bike frames from way back in 1970 to the current e-bikes.
Here’s the dedicated page where you can see the GIF. You’re more than welcome to use it however it complements your articles.
