Journalism at VeloNews just got a little weaker

According to Bicycle Retailer and Industry News, "...John Wilcockson, along with Charles Pelkey, a senior editor at velonews.com, and Jamie Bate, editor at singletrack.com, a separate property owned by Competitor Group Inc. (CGI), were let go last week. Many longtime friends in Boulder’s closely-knit cycling community said their departures came as a surprise...Ben Delaney, the magazine’s former editor, quit last month."

Wow. When you shit-can that kind of journalistic talent, one wonders what's left.

Yeah, those guys were powerhouses, and VeloNews was the last great cycling mag. Makes you wonder what's next.
