My thoughts exactly!  Love it or hate it, Yellow Jersey really is a piece
of local Americana.  The downtown area will, especially for  those that
rely on
bicycles and their repair/maintenance and who live near campus/downtown,
suffer greatly if/when the shop moves.  Please someone, tell me there's an
Arlington Ave. or St. in Madison that is the reference being made here to
the new location, please?
