Howes is closing because of retirement.. ..They told me it was a mutual retirement and nothing wrong with sales. They just feel it is time to close.

Still sad that they have not got anyone to carry on in their name.

Silly reason, as I say. If the business was doing well even more so.

Indeed. I'm sure it could've been sold on as a going concern, especially given the vast amount of bike use in Cambridge. :?
