Sales were down for every thing in 09, so it's no suprise that many retail outlets will go belly up in 10. The dealers that survive will be the older ones that have weathered this kind of storm before. They tend to have a wider and deeper customer base. They have also always been run lean and mean. Baxter and Engles come to mind, they sell bikes to folks from all over the US. But, in this economic climate who knows?
Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.
