Now I don't make it through a day without checking in for all the updates and the next "gear" porn I can lay my eyes on. I'm truly excited to see the new roads to come. Congratulations to Eric and the rest of the crew for an awesome job! Just a few short months ago, the realm of Gear Patrol didn’t even exist to me.

This is indeed a momentous occasion. My greatest wish is that this 2nd birthday, unlike for my kid, does not mark for GP a new stage of complete and uncontrollable insanity and food flinging. Instead, I trust the next year will be one of unbridled growth for our little man-child of a website. I'm looking forward to having more folks to be subjected to my verbal rants; I'm even more excited to hear what they'll spit back. Thanks to each of you whose hard work in producing Gear Patrol brings enlightenment to the masses. Of course, we can't thank our loyal readers enough for making it worthwhile (a preemptive welcome to those readers that don't even know they are readers yet). In case you didn't realize, stick with Gear Patrol and you just might find yourself knee-deep in the next big thing. Cheers! My highest esteem to you, my fellow Gear Patrol staffers.

I can't believe I have the opportunity to be "that one buddy of yours who’s perpetually researching everything about anything and knows his stuff.", I was talking with a friend today about how cool it is. Thanks to Eric for starting the whole thing, and Ben, Patrick, and Brian for all the work they do behind the scenes. It's amazing how far the sites changed even in the 6 months since I came onboard. Here's to the future and GP world domination! Kudos to Gear Patrol for making it to year 2,we’re doing better than most start ups already.

No wonder you founded the site. Seriously you should look into modeling. I know technically on birthdays people are supposed to give you gifts, but Patrick's wanted to see you on those Calvin Kline underwear packets for sometime now,perhaps it's time to grant his wish? Secondly, I'll give you a big kudos on being the driving force behind making Gear Patrol what it is today. This wouldn't be the amazing online resource for men that it is now without your vision, talent and countless (and I mean COUNTLESS)hours of work. I also wanted to thank you on behalf of the rest of the staff for letting us jump on board to help. I'm sure the rest of the guys will speak their own bit later though. Finally, the cake graphic is cool and all, but we should have found someone to add in that audio bit from Batman Begins, when Christian Bale sneaks up to Gordan for the first time in his office.Gordan asks "You're just one man?" and Bale says, "Now we're two." That sound clip would have been awesome, but that's just my two cents. ;) Anyway, cheers! Here's to our staff, our readers, and many years to come!
