What about Cameron? He's got to be out of school by now.Unreal said:Hey guys,
Yup, I'm calling it a day. Well, a half decade to be specific, but still.
Not really sure what I'm going to go to school for. I got a bunch of community college credits already in random crap. I'm kinda interested in urban development, alternative transportation, college chicks... not sure what I'm going to major in though.
As for selling the shop... I'm really undecided about it. It's a one man shop, I'm that one man. If people called and got someone else, would it still be Unreal Cycles? Would that even be fair to my customers? Ideally a new owner would get up when his alarm clock goes off and actually be a decent rider
The shop is full of stuff, it just never seems to be full of the *right* stuff. I wouldn't mind selling the shop to someone, in fact it would work out great if I still got to manage the website but didn't have the daily responsibilities of running a shop. Even the selling price wouldn't be a huge issue to me, less then $10K plus merchandise I'm sure. My main requirements would be:
1. Midwest or east coast location. Really, most my business was along the right coast. The east coast needs someone, ANYONE to step up and take right proper care of them!
2. Someone with the time/money to do it right. It can't be a side gig. You couldn't realistically run the shop while going to school or still employed 9-5 elsewhere.
3. I refuse to sell the name as a front to some faceless warehouse operation.
4. You gota have a passion for the lifestyle, be self motivated and have a solid service-based work ethic and have no disillusions about getting rich anytime soon.
That about covers it. It would probably be a great way for a small LBS to get into the online world, maybe a small garage operation looking to step up to the next level, a disenfranchised shop employ with a little credit and a lot of dreams, etc. I'd be happy to share all my wisdom and crap if you're interested.
Otherwise, keep checking the site. As it gets closer to June the discounts on my remaining in-stock goods will just keep going up.
DON'T EVER LET THE WORLD KEEP YOU FROM YOUR BIKE!!!
i was expecting to pay full price anyways! $250-$290. i think he was asking like $250-$265, great prices! the local bike shop said they would be like $400, shesh:mumble:mandown said:
You mean Cameron from the BikeDogz days? Oh man... that was a long while ago. He was never a part of Unreal Cycles. When I saw how BikeDogz was being handled I knew I could do better. That's when I split and started Unreal Cycles.-BB- said:
