Good price on regular, too
I just got this letter from Rone at high gear.
He wants everyone to go to Cycle Craft. Is cycle craft moving into the Stirling shop.

Weird letter, someone burning a humongous bridge out there
That would be Rone, apparently. But he already burned the bridge. This letter is just setting fire to the charcoal. Maybe they're having a BBQ.
From Marty's, thought it was interesting:

it is a simulated signature (got mine today) - and no doubt rone sold the mailing list - why not.
owner of cycle craft is on here - if he cares to comment.
They do a nice job in the parsippany shop. I know Mike, good guy (not sure if he is on here)
Just a long way for me to travel.

All those new Trek stores are. Not very inviting at all. I avoid VR5 in Flemington at all cost.

$2.89 as of today...yes, I tracked down a gas station sushi restaurant in Memphis, TN. Really trying to avoid emails over here.
Hope you don't think Rone actually sent that? He may have sold the list, and approved using his signature....as there is no incentive for him to drop $1 per past customer to recommend going to CC....

Endurance Guy: Tolerates most of us.
Except it's sent from his home address.
would you like me to send you a thank-you note from his home address?
I like Brendan and Mike up at CC. Brendan is on here occasionally. Mike's kid is a triathlon rockstar
the only other explanation would be to send people to the only shop that didn't pick up any HG people.....and that would cost money.
Go to Pops in Bound Brook. I brought my bike in there the other day and they were great. Super knowledgeable and over the top service.
Bikeland Bike Shop. At (https://www.bikeland.xyz) has been in business since 1992 in Chatham, NJ. Since the closing of High Gear many happy riders have been going to Bikeland. It's a mom & pop operation with an amazing owner and staff all living locally and raising their wonderful families. The Owner Oscar and some staff are retired past national level amateur and professional racers with a high level of technician knowledge of bike builds, racing, service and bike repair. It's a bike shop which at first glance seems 100% setup for the whole family to get top quality affordable bikes and service. In between all that you'll start seeing a lot of top pro racing bikes being done there. Also, they have been trusted for decades with providing all the thousands of annual national police unity tour rider's with custom designed gear for their long hard rides honoring fallen officers. (https://www.policeunitytour.com) For Mountain Bikes, they stock a few top brands, but a significant amount of mountain bike riders have been going to the (https://www.ninerbikes.com) website to custom build up a bike to their needs, and having it sent to Bikeland for final assembly, setup, and pick-up. Regardless what level rider, they cater to a wide range of rider needs. Even while High Gear was open, their shops have been steadily growing. During peek hours on the weekends, waits for service can be a few minutes long. In chatham just let them know you’re there, and often people will then go to the Dunkin' Donuts a couple of doors down and by time you get back they’ll be ready to get U rollin. They have free parking along side the shop in Chatham and in the back in Caldwell. They also provide a service form online, that helps with providing faster tune-up and repair service at https://bikeland.xyz/pages/service-request Also, people have been steadily for going big chain stores and shops, to go to Bikeland the last known mom & pop bike shops still going strong and in there local market for the past decades. Mostly for the quality affordable bikes, gear, bike repair, family oriented shop and racing heritage, and the experience many of us love when we went to a local mom & pop bike shop.
