Nice, that. They talk about footy with the seriousness it actually deserves.

To all that have mentioned coffee, there is a bakery chain next door but one who do fine coffee
Maybe work out some deal with them where people get a free coffee with every service (purchase over £xxx, etc.)? Your mate pays for the coffee at cost, free coffee people also buy a cake, they enjoy their coffee and cake and the experience stays with them, they tell their friends, everyone wins.

Not in Manchester but I think there’s a few in here who are... @fizzy.bleach may be able to advise.

Fair enough. There’s a little shop near here who seem to have done quite well with this model. Never been in a a cycling club, but could imagine the absolute bores who would enact this scenario.

Speaking in more general terms than profit/loss, if I were in the same position, I'd aim to encourage a community of cyclists around the bike shop, weekend/weeknight rides, accommodating for novices, be generally the best and most helpful shop going, nice place to be, get a good rep with local clubs. Hopefully word of mouth will then do some of the advertising for them. The shop I use is local to my work and the main 'sales' guy there is always the most friendly, helpful guy, happy to chat about bike stuff and generally a nice chap. Always happy to give them my trade.

Very fun build, but been on eBay for a looooong time that one. Can’t see it shifting any time soon at that price.

I'll get in line for this, too.
Still looking for most of this stuff.
