Have a Freshbikes gift card? You are out of luck. The company says it will not honor its gift cards. It says holders of gift cards will be eligible to receive 10-30% off one item at VeloConcepts locations. All repairs have been transferred to Spokes, Etc. in Alexandria - not exactly convenient to downtown Bethesda. Spokes, Etc. has agreed to warranty claims and new-bicycle purchase agreements.
Why would they honor gift cards if all their stores have closed?
ReplyDelete@7:29am: Because gift card holders are unsecured creditors.

A lot of news this morning!
ReplyDeleteGeez, Dyer... is this the best picture you could post of yourself on your campaign site?

Old news. FreshBikes has been closed for a month now.
ReplyDelete10:00: If so, why am I first to report it?
ReplyDelete9:39: You're the only person who doesn't like it. The one of me you have on your nightstand is probably better though.

DeleteIt's not "why are you the first," it's "why are you only one" to report it? And the answer is because no one cares (except for the relative small number of people who actually used the shop who have known for a month).
DeleteI have the one with you and the umbrella on my nightstand
ReplyDelete11:01: That actually made me laugh out loud.
ReplyDeleteWhen is Bethesda Bagel reopening? It's been 5 weeks already...
ReplyDelete11:01: Oh, come on! This one is way better than that.
ReplyDeleteAnd the usual "Betrayed By Save Westbard" sign.
ReplyDeleteI'm surprised they lasted that long. They only sold high-end bikes ($2k+) and that's a slim market. I go to Griffin Bikes on Bethesda Avenue. A long-time fixture in Bethesda and great service too.
ReplyDeletetard!! they closed a month ago!!! quesa dilllllllllllluuhhhhhhhhhhhhh
ReplyDeleteYou missed some big local wine news, too.
ReplyDeleteDyer is only interested in bum wines.
ReplyDeleteIn Which Bobbie Pats Himself On The Back
ReplyDelete"-Got giant hole in Parking Garage 40 in Bethesda repaired in August 2014
-Got the lights turned back on at Veterans Park in downtown Bethesda"
Dyer has done great constituent service for downtown Bethesda residents.
DeleteBum wines don't have corks, and you don't need a fork to eat a burrito.
ReplyDeleteHow come everyone who praises Dyer on this blog, only does so anonymously?
ReplyDeleteHey Dyer - looks like your buddy Alex Jones is going down.

4:05: It's just the facts - I have a longer and wider record of countywide activism than anyone else in this race. And actual accomplishments for the community. That's only a partial list on there.
