And in a moment it was over.

And in a moment it was over, and we were left with what we might have been and what we had become. - Jon Stewart (musician)

Spoke & Sprocket is now history. There is still some paperwork to complete, and a couple of things to move out of the building tomorrow morning, but for all intents and purposes Spoke & Sprocket is no more.

No more bikes to sell, no more fittings, no more repairs. It is over. Spoke & Sprocket has been a major part of my life for 20 years, sometimes an all consuming part of my life. Times change, and Jim Finnell., Linda & I are moving on - life in Portland awaits Linda & I and Finnell is entering a very acrtive retirement. We are excited about our new lives, but it is sad leaving behind all that we built and all the great friends we have made throught the shop.

Many of our customers have come by the past month to wish us well and tell us how much we & the shop will be missed. thank you all so much for your kind words, you have no idea how much they mean to us. We will certainly miss the wonderful customers we have had at Spoke & Sprocket. I  am still amazed at how loyal, suportive, and helpful our customer base was (and is.) You all are great folks.

It has been a wonderful ride full of memories that I will always cherish - thank you all so very much for your loyalty and support!

All of us at Spoke & Sprocket thank you and wish you all the best in the future!
