We are sad today because we lost a dear friend this morning in John Reid. Long before there was a Re-Cycle Canteen, there was Bicycles of Shelby. John Reid was our original landlord. He took a chance on us and gave us a place to get started and grow. We installed French doors between the two shops and they were open all day. That is the way John Reid wanted it. John treated us like friends from the beginning and that is what we became. John loved his family and friends and Shelby Music Center and music. He was a giant in the community and he will be sorely missed. We love you John. God bless you and your family.
