Well after 21 years of CBD Cycles in the city my health has finally caught up with me and it's time to let a new owner put all his energy into the task of providing a top quality bike store at the Paris end of the city. Over the years CBD Cycles has help produce 3 Australian Cycling champs, numerous top ten elite finishes at Ironman Australia. Several world IM age group champs and local Gatorade Elite champs and hundreds of Australian reps at world champs. I'd like to thank all my advocated and supporters throughout the years. Business doesn't work without great suppliers and none have been better than Darren and Giant who always believed in me. I've had some very loyal workers over the years and would like to thank David Kaye for his tireless efforts and Tanya for keeping me on the straight and narrow. I've had so many great mechanics over the years and like to thank my best Matt, Dave, Nick, Nick Bec, Jono, Bayden, Lachie, Steve, Shaun, Dan and Cam for the support and care taken.
Of course non of this would be possible without the support of my family and friends who have always been there for me. Jodie and Aris have been a huge part of why I have been a small business owner. It's given me the flexibility to spend time with my son growing up and Jodie has always been there with unconditional support. My clothing supplier Glenn from Australian made Cannibal has always cared more about me than he has his bottom line. He is a great friend and epitomizes so many friends I have made through the store.
I've loved having the store in the city and being involved in supporting so many great athletes and commuters alike.I need to take time now to get better but still want to keep my hand in with the industry. I loved my time as mechanic for the Australian team at so many world champs around the world and at local races. I plan to continue to do select mechanical work for clients from home. Keep an eye on social media and the website for more details.
The last day of CBD cycles in the city is January 19th so there is a lot of selling to do in the next couple of weeks....all stock has to go! Come in if you want to buy something or see you in February for a coffee and a catch up.
cheers
