Duncan, the bike part is staying open until he has found new smaller premises. It is the cafe that is closing on Sunday, it is loss making, which surprised me, the prices are not cheap, and there always seems to be people in there, its a favourite for dog owners as they let dogs in. I would have thought the bike section was losing money, and the cafe was subsidising the bike side, but its the other way round. Agreed, it’s a loss, as we go in there whenever we have the dog with us. Ironically, we went to it for dinner on Good Friday to find it was shut for the day, so we settled for MarchBank Bakers and ate in the street.

Moose cycles in Sw London is also on the way out. One of the few shops in London and the  SE that focussed primarily on mountain bikes 🙂

Makes you realise how lucky you are to live in a small Highland town with two good bikeshops
