ryan petersen: Watch out for hipsters on bikes. They think they own the roads.
Gothamist: Like cycling? Love donuts? Then Brooklyn by Bike's Donut Ride is the event for you. Iced, glazed, and jelly donuts will be waiting for you at the finish line. Sat, 4/16. Read more.
Wally N: It would be much better if the city converted some of these car lanes to bike lanes or pedestrian area.

Alison R: Huge selection, 2 floors plus another storefront up the block! Carlos is friendly and helpful. I ended up with a bike that fit my needs without being pressured into buying something I didn't want.
Stabitha Christie: Buy your bikes and every last scrap of bike paraphernalia from Carlos and his friendly, smart staff. But don't them pack your bike to ship cross-country unless you like paying for repairs.
Crystal: Awesome local business. Friendly service, no pressure. The mechanic took a lot of time to properly tune up a bike so I could give it a test ride and did it with a lot of care - it’s all in the details
