But at least some spare parts are still available. :-)

Posted by buyable at April 5, 2007 03:05 AMLooks abandoned. Interesting place. What's on or behind the tree/shrub on the right? It looks like little paper bicycle wheels, perhaps some sort of sculpture. I think I'd obey the "do not enter" sign.
Posted by Laurie at April 5, 2007 06:08 AMIs this shop still in buisness lol
Would be cool if it was!
Sweet picture!
Posted by Ross Weir at April 5, 2007 07:36 AMlol, that "Do Not Enter" sign is a little redundant.. doesn't look quite possible to get in there even if you tried!
Interesting details in the pic ;)
Posted by Lea at April 5, 2007 08:18 AMThis place is notorious for selling stolen bikes. If you're looking for yours... it may be here. :)
Posted by Joe (BikingToronto) at April 5, 2007 09:01 AMWhat a beautiful mess. I especially like the form of the light area under the seat on the wall at right.
Amazing! Alleyways can be goldmines of humour.
But I don't know if I'd want the dude to fix my bike. More to know of this.
Posted by Hugh Petrie at April 5, 2007 09:10 AMNice! You like all the same stuff as me. Would you please be my friend? :)
Posted by Gordito at April 5, 2007 09:49 AMi love Igor.
Posted by Lx at April 5, 2007 09:59 AMIgor was the biggest dirtbag in all of Toronto. If you ever wanted to find your stolen bike, it was probably in that bastard's shop. Great news that he's been shut down. Let's just hope that it lasts this time.
Posted by jeremy at April 5, 2007 10:12 AMAwesome rusty textures and you gotta love that circular glass window with what appears to be junk piled to the ceiling. Great image!
Posted by Nathan at April 5, 2007 10:12 AMLooks like an unusual place. Is that trash inside the window? Cool shot. I love shots of urban decay. Great job.
Posted by Alice at April 5, 2007 10:48 AMGreat shot. I love the details and bike paraphernalia strewn about.
Posted by Justin at April 5, 2007 09:09 PMSilly Sam. This is a Meth lab, not a bike shop.
Posted by k at April 6, 2007 12:35 AMi love Igor's Meth Lab.
Posted by Lx at April 6, 2007 09:33 AMI don't apreceate very much the composition, but i like the colors/tones and textures! Nice envorinment.
Posted by Osiriums Ventaka at April 7, 2007 10:18 AMI found my friend's stolen bike in the back room of this place 7 years ago. The guy was/is a crook.
Great pic though.
