- February 18, 2013, 14:01:53 PMSorry I missed you posts here PC, and I think that the people that own the shop are trying to expand too fast...they have had a family run business about an hour from here in a small town, and it was boats, bikes, ATVs, snowmachines. They were doing good and had a lot of loyal customers from the area, lots of small towns and so people do not mind driving to get things done or that they need, not like living in a huge metropolitin area. So they opened the store here in North Bay, about a year ago......it was supposed to be Bikes, ATVs and snowmachines, then the owner got this smart idea because of the huge back area to open a hot tub business involved with the store, but he did not hire more help, sent the 4 people working there to hot tub school....ok....
Quotewe don't get any mafly's here, but we do have blackflies and noseeums...oh and deer flies too. they can take you off your bike if you are not ready for them.......Like mayfly season, or mosquito's that don't just suck your blood, but carry you back to the hive for a feast......
