A community bike shop is in the process of opening up behind Al's in the old Chaosome/CPR space. Last week a group of about 15 folks met to start working on the infrastructure and to basically have a big brain storming meeting.

Next step is to clean out the space and continue the brain storming.

If you are interested in brainstorming we are meeting on Thursday at 6 pm at Al's.

If you are interested in helping to clean out the space (lots of junk in there) then we are meeting on Thursday at 7 pm (after the brain storming) in the space. Be ready to get dirty and then get refreshed with draft PBRs at the sidecar.

Don't know if you need the assistance--

I was a commercial Realtor and professional property manager for several years. I'm in the middl;e of a move right now and won;t be terribly available until after Labor Day, but if you need that kind of help (leasing terms, etc) I'm available. You can catch me through BCC forum, facebook, pm.

Thanks Brokebike

This is a cross post from the BCC forum

We will be meeting at Al's Bar on the Northwest corner of Sixth St. and North Limestone at 6 p.m.

At 7 p.m. we will begin cleaning up the space and getting all the junk out of the space. The actual bike shop space is located behind Al's Bar. Go North on Limestone St., Take a left on to sixth st, and the go about 15 yards and turn into a small 5 car parking lot and that is where the bike shop will be. If you still can't find us, go into Al's and talk to Josh the bartender/owner and he will direct you.

If you have never been to Al's I encourage you to come down at 6 and have yourself some dinner with the great local lamb or beef burger, some sweet potato fries and a tasty beer or bourbon.

Cheers
Tim
