About eight years ago I found this small bike shop about five miles away from where I live. This is Bob and Laura, the proprietors, and they are warm and friendly and very knowledgeable. It has always been fun to go in and visit when I need some new clothing, or some parts to repair my bike. The other day I realized that the bottom bracket bearings on my bike were failing, so I went to the shop to buy replacements. I was shocked to see signs that the store was closing! Bob said they have been doing this for a long time, and the store ties them down. It is really hard for them to take a vacation. They will close at the end of the year, but he did say that he will have a small repair shop in his garage at home, and he invited me to visit. You know I will be going there!
It looks like a wonderful friendly store. Sad that they are closing but happy for them that they can follow their dreams.
