That's my closest LBS shutting down in a day or 2, real shame. Bikeworx R.I.P. :cry:
Nice guy ran it but he says the internet has driven him out of business, he was up against a couple of other shops too but had unique lines and a friendly service. Location and saturation might have been against him too though.
He is looking to supplement his new day job with bike repairs out of a van, hope he does well, he deserves it. He did say the one benefit of closure will be getting time to ride again, so there is a little "up".
I've bought a pile of stuff from him over the years but never managed to afford a whole bike. Feel a little guilty about that but in reality it wouldn't have made a difference in the long run.
Farewell Bikeworx.
