I'm about a half hour from there. Next time I'm in the area I will check it out. But I found this Facebook page on them http://www.facebook.com/pages/Ypsilanti-MI/Cafe-Racer/101452716443. Looks like a vintage cycle shop that opens up next month.

The windows were papered over last time I was by there but there was activity inside and a guy practicing wheelies in the driveway on a small Honda dirt bike.

Depot town Ypsilanti has a decent bike night every summertime Tuesday. That will bring lots of traffic to CAFE RACER. The nearby Sidetrack bar and grill has a dynamite burger too! I haven't yet sampled Aubrees menu.
