Wow. After the May death of owner Charlie McCormick, longtime DC region City Bikes bikeshops are permanently out of business.
I worked at City Bikes doing mostly back-office stuff 2005-2008 (and briefly lived on the floor of the Adams Morgan shop). Started dating my late wife during that stretch. Still call some colleagues from that time friends. A weird wild special place that I will miss (but the spirit lives on at BicycleSpace) https://www.citybikes.com/
