Downtown WG’s Urban Sports has begun a liquidation sale this week, and will close in a few days as inventory sells out:

Urban Sports has decided to close this store at this time and hopes to see you out running and cycling in the neighborhood!

All store merchandise is on sale for 30% off the marked price. Hurry while supplies last.

Keep swimming, cycling and running! Yoga is good for you too!

The reincarnation of the former “WG Runners Supply” finds itself squeezed between raising rents from their landlord, credit refusals from the their bank, and product exclusions from a nearby competitor. A slowing economy doesn’t help. Owner — and major community supporter — Lance Maurer is not sure what he’ll do next, although customers hope that an online presence may resume soon.
