Velo is starting something new, but it’s only new to you. To those of us working on the articles you read on the site, this is the stuff we really want to share but can’t. Now we have a place to do it, and it’s a member exclusive.

What you see on the site is a bit like a still picture. It’s a moment in time that’s highly polished and considered. We leave things out because, frankly, that’s what makes an article good. The result is a clear, concise point of view.

But what about the rest of the story? What about the behind-the-scenes details that land on the virtual cutting room floor?

That’s what Dropped is all about. This is a chance for the Velo team to talk directly to our subscribers about the bigger picture and the concepts we are interested in at a particular moment.

Everyone is getting a chance to talk directly to our biggest supporters, and you can always reply with your thoughts on what we share. Actually, please do because we love to hear from our readers.

Thank you for coming along for the ride.
