I remember it opening, it felt like the start of an era, the new cycle lanes were going in, people were getting on their bikes. I'd date the resurgence to1999, with the start of the bike to work scheme. Before that, bike shops were closing and closing everywhere. Here was a bike workshop and caff! Ok, just maybe it was a bit too hipster to call a caff, but still. I called in every now and then on my way home, but they would never have got rich from my custom. I'm sure I was there once when they were running a "cyclists speed dating" session? Maybe that was just a bad dream.
End of an era, now, then.
