85th and Greenwood. Terrifying images. Hope all are OK.

Scroll down for a map with a legend. A Cycle shop was heavily damaged.

G&O heavily damaged. Terrible.
Just down the street, west on NW 85th St. and around the corner on 8th Ave. NW, is JRA Cycles. I thought for a minute that was the affected bike shop. It's where I picked up the Sparrow frame a long, long time ago.

Friends.
A very long night and day and evening draws to a close.
The shop is still standing, but it has suffered major damage. It is unclear whether we will be able to rebuild in our current location, or if that will be impossible and G&O will be forced to relocate.
Whatever happens, we will survive and grow, with you, our amazing friends. Just like our darling Greenwood, we will rise again.
