OUR STORY
Hello! This is Mike & Jenn and they are the owners of the shop.
It is not Mike's first foray into the world of bicycle repair. He started racing when he was 14 years old and worked on his own bikes. In university, he rode for Guelph's Olympiad Cycling Team and worked for a man named George Vettor, an avid cyclist who opened his shop Vettor Cycling and Sport in 1969. Mike spent a few years there building and repairing bikes while training under George for the team. After university, Mike continued to ride, racing for charity as well as riding for pleasure, and continued to work on his own bicycles.
After a summer spent working with the previous owner, they more than ready to take on the problems London cyclists are having with their bikes and trikes.
Jenn was an avid cyclist in her teens and rode for pleasure through much of her twenties and thirties, working on her own bikes whenever she could, thanks to Mike's tutelage in high school. She was a stay-at-home mom for close to 25 years. Her youngest is a Masters student heading to England this fall for her program and Jenn is ready for the challenges of helping run a business entails.
Together, they are a formidable team with a dream of making sure every bike - and customer - that comes into their shop leaves much happier than when it came in. They looking forward to seeing you!
Meet Rob! He is our resident mechanic (and boy, did we need one!). He comes to us from ToWheels, where he worked for more than twenty years assembling, repairing and tuning bikes.
He loves learning new technology and is familiar with all types of bikes. Rob has a lifetime of cycling-for-pleasure under his belt, riding with his wife and family. He’s even cycled internationally! We are pleased to have him with us.
