goodbye duke's

I have been reading about the fire that happened in Toronto yesterday, more about that here and here, and I am quite saddened to see that Duke's cycle shop was totally destroyed. I bought my current bike there 16 years ago and always took it back there for servicing. I'm glad nobody was killed, but I do know what it's like to be made homeless by fire so my heart goes out to those who were made homeless yesterday. Toronto is not going to be the same without those businesses that were lost and the historic buildings that were destroyed. So sad.
