Chicago: urban bikes
i've been meaning to post about this for a while. i used to live in chicago, and lived for a year right down leland about two blocks away from urban bikes. the last couple of times i went back to visit, i noticed the name had changed to uptown bikes. is it still the same shop? is tim still involved (i think that was his name)? i remember getting a lot of good help there from someone named nora when i was converting my nishiki. it was a good shop, and i hope it was just a name change.

that's good news. one of the nice things about that place was how involved they were in the neighborhood. maybe the name change is a way to further emphasize that or something.
