Got my oldest son a camera for Christmas and he brought it to the shop over the weekend to play around with it. I had him take some shop photos and figured I would post a few of them here. Most of these are just the downstairs where it is mostly "bike shop" other than the hanging bike which are all older bikes.

Some day, I'll figure out how to get good pictures of the upstairs. It is still pretty dark up there and pictures don't come out very good.

Unlike any other museum in the world, I think I could walk into that shop and not come out for days

Pro-stop off an old San Andreas I'd guess?

That is one of the team USA 1988 Olympic bikes. I don't think I have any good pictures of it yet. Haven't done much with the raod bikes in term of getting good photos.......maybe some day.

Seriously impressive
I especially like the little cabinets with the older/top end stuff
[psst its the cabinets themselves i like ]
and the old bikes hanging in the middle
Very nice indeed. 
Do you have a fancy ground coffee machine for guests/customers/staff/hanger ons??
