how do you have professional credentials as a bicyclist separate from being a bike rider?
Looks neat. One of my favorite assignments in college was to "fully describe the dynamics of a bicycle from rest to it's first complete revolution of a pedal". We all failed, but learned a lot.
Does "I rode more under my own power than some members of my family did with their cars" count as professional? I got the whole mechanical engineer thing down, I got the create my own product thing down.
Sounds too good to be true though, likely very low paying relative to the work they require.
@orionz the statement that "This position is on a part-time basis and can be in any part of the country" leaves me thinking it definitely falls in the too good to be true category.

Or that it involves a web cam, a chat window, and a credit card processing account...
Maybe "professional" includes amateur racing (with occasional wins or places),formal randonneur qualification at some level, being an elected officer in Pgh Wheelman or Major Taylor, or working the LBS.
Or maybe not. The "Too good to be true" aspect of it: Your resume tucked between some MIT grad that was on the Postal Team one year and that engineer from Cannondale that placed in RAAM. Ready to giveup your day job?
My husband separately forwarded me a job posting for an assistant to a guy who runs a bike shop in one of our favorite vacation places that we both dream of moving to.
They could just be trolling for resumes. Or they could be looking for someone specific and not know how to find them (or not want to pay to find them via head hunter). Only one way to find out 
Tofino?
yeah. Mark is looking for a helper. It's pretty much my dream job, but I am just shy of achieving escape velocity here. I'm hoping that by the time I DO escape, whoever gets the job is ready for a replacement. Or something similar somewhere nearby appears.
oh, man.
Actually, their website is pretty interesting. They're scientist, but provide expert testimony in lawsuits (and other things, I presume). www.robsonforensic.com
I did something similar post graduate school - only dealing with slips & falls. I analyzed shoe/floor interfaces and such, and did COF calculations with human factor contributions. We were basically paid expert witnesses when someone fell in a store and decided to sue the owner. It was super fun, but very limited as an occupation. My guess is you only get a few billable hours a month or so. So probably not worth quitting your day job.
