Gutted by fire :( (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/hereford/worcs/3114410.stm)

Bummer. Loads of irreplaceable bikes gone.

Good news if you own one of the last surviving Spagforth Whippets, of course - your heap of crap has just tripled in value...

I have been meaning to go for years, it's like when Bob Marley died. I understand that most of the legendary Uncle Bunt's Chop-Shop best kit was there.

FCUK.

This is very very sad indeed. :( Gutting for all involved in making it the success that it was. Let's hope that they can rebuild the building and find some "new" exhibits. :(
