Things worth keeping.
I started Almanac because I was tired of how quickly everything on the internet disappears. You find a beautiful chair, a small hotel you want to cross a country for, a jersey in exactly the right brown, a book that changes the way you look at something, and a week later it has been buried under a hundred newer things. I wanted somewhere to put the ones that stayed with me.
So this is not a feed and I have no interest in filling it for the sake of publishing. Each Edit starts with something I like and follows that thought until it feels complete. Sometimes that will be three cycling kits, sometimes a building, a workshop, a place to eat or a person who has spent thirty years getting unusually good at one thing. If you can buy something I will tell you where, but nobody pays to be here and Almanac takes no commission. I would rather publish nothing than pretend to care about something because there is a link attached to it.
Cycling came first simply because I love it and already spend far too much time thinking about what to wear on a bike. The rest will come the same way, slowly, whenever I find something I cannot quite leave alone.
