I don't remember too many of the questions now, something like 'what is the
craziest city for bicycling' or 'what is the future of cycling'.
PineTarSoap's description is pretty accurate, he comes off in person as a
pretty dry, sarcastic, funny guy who lucked into making money off the blog
(he actually did have a funny anecdote about this - with the blog writing
being a step up from his day job), and his answers to the questions
reflected that. You can see him hesitate a little bit on each question,
thinking 'how the hell am i going to answer that?!?!'
