Cool Water Bikes is a TV star!

I was up at 3:40 this morning to go into CWB to be interviewed on the KXLY morning news. They did 4 spots between 5am and 7:30am. I'm pretty tired right now, but it was good. If you missed it, they have one of the spots on their website: kxly.com
Here it is:

Also, they're supposed to air a summary story this evening on the 5pm news broadcast. We've had a couple of phone calls based on it already. Hopefully it generates good interest.

Need space

For the last year, Cool Water Bikes has been operating in the drop-in center of Cup of Cool Water. It has been great, but cramped. Also, it's rather difficult to tell the general public about our strange hours. We can't be open while drop-in is going on. So we really want another location to move the shop to. Our best lead just fell through. The other tricky part is we don't really have any money for rent. So unless someone drops off a big wad of cash, we're hoping to find a property owner who would be willing to donate the space to us. Ideally it would be within walking distance of downtown, but we'll consider other locations as well (I'm leaving that vague because I still don't know where the best location is). We need space for retail, service, and storage (2000-4000 square feet?). Give me a call if you know of anything.
