The Ancient Egyptians and Mayans colored their faces red in ceremonies Roman generals had their bodies colored red to celebrate victories. Red pigment made from ochre was one of the first colors used in prehistoric art. Reds range from the brilliant yellow-tinged scarlet and vermillion to bluish-red crimson, and vary in shade from the pale red pink to the dark red burgundy. It is a primary color in the RGB color model and a secondary color (made from magenta and yellow) in the CMYK color model, and is the complementary color of cyan. It has a dominant wavelength of approximately 625–740 nanometres. I’m happy to be granted the opportunity to give such a great group of writers the creative freedom to produce what I believe will be some of the best work of their careers.Red is the color at the long wavelength end of the visible spectrum of light, next to orange and opposite violet.
“It’s true that I always meant for RKP to be a home to great writing about our favorite sport, but my ambitions were decidedly more modest. “If you’d told me six months ago that I’d be assembling this cast of writers, I’d have said you were out of your mind,” Brady said of the additions. It's a phenomenal opportunity for me, and I'm excited to get started!" “The always-impressive contributors team has grown more impressive seemingly overnight, and I look forward to working with, and more importantly, learning from some of the heavyweights of cycling journalism. "The environment Patrick and crew have created at Red Kite Prayer is a unique one, simultaneously providing an outlet for authors to write the content on their own terms, while maintaining an unsurpassed level of quality,” Rauch said. I can't think of a better way to start the New Year!" As for writers such as (Charles) Pelkey and Wilcockson, I've been reading their work since my earliest days a junior, waiting for the newest issue of VeloNews to arrive and explain to me all that was happening in a sport I was only beginning to understand. Belgium Knee Warmers (where Brady was a regular contributor) was one of the sites that originally inspired me to create Pavé, and the opportunity to work directly with some of the creative force behind it is too tantalizing to ignore. Pavé publisher Whit Yost said, "I'm excited to have been asked to join the impressive team that Patrick is assembling at Red Kite Prayer. Whit Yost and Jeremy Rauch, who formerly published the blog Pavé have elected to cease publishing new material on it and have joined RKP. In addition to Wilcockson, RKP is adding two other contributors. Thanks, Patrick, for the chance to reach some new readers!" My first RKP column will appear next Tuesday.
"So here I am, ready and excited to clip in to the pedals and begin this new challenge. “So I checked it out and thought, anything that has 'red kite' and 'prayer' in its name has to be aimed at true European bike-racing aficionados, perhaps with a spiritual bent. "I first heard about RKP from Boulder videographer Brian Patrick, who said it was the coolest cycling site he'd seen,” Wilcockson said.
