...Hi: sorry to insert something off topic, but I used to live in Mt Ranier in the 70's, while attending the U of Md. I was a member of the food buying club that gave birth to GLUT, and lived a couple of blocks from there. I had heard they had a bike co-op now in one of the big, olde houses that were so wonderfully predominant in the neighborhood. Have you used/visited that co-op ? Your impressions ? I was the Saturday manager for the one here for five or six years. Not sure how ours will re-open either...space is pretty tight in there.
Thanks if you choose to reply.
