Welcome to The Bike Shop! We have been helping our community ride bikes, have fun, and feel great since 1978!

In 2012, Ryan, along with his wife Tracey, and their daughter's Jorja and Sara teamed up to carry on the family business! The Cooper's find joy in helping people discover their passion for cycling. Throughout the years they have helped generations of families select their child's first bicycle and help introduce riders to our areas extensive trail systems. In addition, The Bike Shop has assisted athletes in achieving their goals, including Ironman Triathlons, National Championships, World Championships, and the Olympics. 

Ryan has learned the art of mechanics from his father, is certified in bicycle fitting, and loves the sport of cycling.  With all the experience through the years The Coopers will assist you in finding the bicycle that is perfect for you, and keep it serviced for years to come.
