Yehuda Moon works at the Kickstand Cyclery, lives on his bicycle and dreams of a day when everyone does likewise.
The comic strip is about two guys who run a bike shop and the challenges they face in the store and on the road. Yehuda‘s the utilitarian advocate; Joe‘s the go-fast pragmatist. Thistle Gin, a wrench and biking mom, rounds them out.

I’ve sold bikes, at a shop big enough to stock WHATEVER the customer might need. Sometimes it’s a question of “want” rather than “need.” Sure, you try to advise, but if the customer has the $$$, and WANTS the $3k carbon-frame roadie (because Lance has one,) and you know that it will spend most of the rest of its life in his garage, well, that’s a nice chunk of change in the cash drawer. You can only armtwist so hard in the cause of fitting the customer right.
I’m with Joe on this one.
Yehuda does idealism, Joe does pragmatism. Sometimes neither of them are right.
I have gone back to the begining and read them all, I dont remember a fred either, I do remember the ghost bike. Is there a specific strip that we see him? Maybe I just dont see it.
Fred appeared already in 3 or 4 strip before this one.
His first appearance is in this strip http://www.yehudamoon.com/index.php?date=20080213
