A massive water pipe burst in the Metropolitan apartments building has flushed Freshbikes Bethesda out of its store at 7626 Old Georgetown Road. This video captures the scene inside the store after the pipe exploded.

The store remains closed while the water damage is repaired, which required moving virtually all of the inventory temporarily. Freshbikes is directing customers to its other locations in Arlington and the Mosaic District in the meantime.
