biking away...

we had some sad news today. our favorite hometown bike shop is closing it's doors. the owner kept it a surprise from everyone, really, until today. so, tomorrow, at 9 am, he is opening the doors to mass chaos and hysteria. everything will be sold at cost. i'm so excited...that if i had to sleep outside on the street, like i did with my friend Julie, in downtown Denver, to get one of the first spots...i would.

you know the drill..the economy. it hits everyone. it's just too bad that it does.

the owner, i know his life will go on. he will be o.k. it's just that running the shop was more expensive than not. he gives freely of his time and knowledge and will continue to do so in the schools and to kids programs.

what a guy.

bye, High Gear....thank you!
