Trail Repairs Coming!

Sections of the beautiful Withlacoochee Trail have holes and rough spots.  The Rails to Trails of the Withlacoochee just announced that repairs will be done to the trail in the next three months.  They will be closing 1/2 the trail at a time in the section they are working on so that bikers can still pass through.


Ride for the health of it!

We hear it from our customers often.  They get a bike or trike they love, they ride and feel better, move better, or lose weight.  One of our customers bought a trike.  She returned recently to let us know that just by riding it she was able to lose some pounds that she could not lose by dieting alone.  Congratulations!

This young couple stopped at our shop on the day they were riding 82 miles to celebrate his 82nd birthday.   Congratulations!

Ride your age

Save your legs!

When you tricycle, CLIP IN or Use Franken Pedals

Tricycle Pedals

The Franken Pedals can be used with or without the toe strap.  These are popular among the trike riders that prefer not to clip onto their pedals.
