This is where SAMBA may be interested in reaching out to someone like Open Road Bicycles or another shop and trying to recruit them.

The husband of one of my co-workers owns a couple of bike shops. Don't remember the name of the stores, though. I'll have to ask her again. Their last name is Lofton. Is there a reasonably priced spot for it to open should he be interested in an urban core location?
