No market for a bmx shop in Fort Worth. You can try all you want, that shits not happening. It would just turn out like another foundry, and anyone riding longer than 10 years knows how that ended up.

Very true. I figured I'd kinda do like Liberty Bicycles(Bills bike shop) in Irving was. Be a normal everyday neighboorhood bike shop but heavily specialize in bmx/cyclecross. I know I couldn't live off of BMX alone, I saw what happened with the Foundry. I've been trying to get a hold of sean because I kinda want to buy the Foundry name from him.

Patty:
There's two commuter specific shops just in downtown, but downtown Fort Worth is turning itself into Dallas, it's all super uppity frat looking people driving around in beamers and Porsches. I've immersed myself in Fort Worth scene for years, and I'm telling you any sort of bike shop will fail right now.

He needs to go in on Magnolia Street and cater to the hipsters LOL

Sucks how much a place can change in just a few years. I remember back in 08 with nightriders, v-club, and half the mutiny team living in Fort Worth, a shop would have done great.

I wouldn't even know what to do with a shop on Magnolia Street besides hang out at the Chatroom and smash hipster broads.
