Gearin’ Up Bicycles

This place is fantastic! I met Katie and Sterling this past Summer and based on my few minutes of interaction, I could tell their energy and outgoing personalities are going to make this organization grow and thrive in NE.
I’m a volunteer at velocity bicycle cooperative in alexandria but I’ve been to their shop several times since it opened up in November.
This isn’t your Fathers bicycle shop. While they still provide traditional services such as bicycle tune ups and sell parts, they also sell used parts, provide do it yourself work, all the tools needed, and volunteer and staff assistance regardless of how new you are to bicycle mechanics, all for just $ 15 an hour. It’s a great way to save a lot of money while learning an important skill. Gearin Up Bicycles also has multiple youth programs for at risk teens.
Gearin Up Bicycles is about a quarter mile north of the intersection of New York and Florida, and is also about 100 feet off the Metro Branch Trail. Look for the Gearin Up Bikes Sandwhich board.
Support your local bicycle coop! They’re great people and Gearin Up Bicycles is going to make a tremendous impact on the community.
