Tim's Training Tidbit
 
Tim O'SheaLocal cycling and triathlon coach Tim O'Shea has his own unique way of communicating his coaching philosophy to his athletes. Master of the "training tidbit," Tim informs, amuses and motivates his athletes all at the same time. And his advice is too good to keep to ourselves any longer. Look for a new "tidbit" in every issue of our newsletter...
 
"Many athletes don't spend enough time in the most comfortable zone, Zone Zzz. Where else can you get HGh without two-year ban!"

 

Basic Bicycle Repair Classes
Bike Repair
Only Two Class Sessions Left in March!
 
Our basic bicycle repair classes are taught by our own service technicians, who are experts in repairing and maintaining bicycles. You'll learn the best way to care for and fix problems on your road and mountain bikes using professional tools and procedures. The basic class will teach you how to set up your workspace, clean and lubricate your bicycle, fix a flat tire, adjust your brakes and cables. Cost is $20 which is refunded to you at a store gift card at time of class.  Read More
Dear Cycling Friends,

Our new counter top for our service area!

This beautiful slab of polished maple is about to be installed in our newly renovated service area at Syracuse Bicycle! This counter top - work of art, really - will serve as the divider between our shop and service area, allowing our customers to have a front row seat as their bicycle is serviced by our expert technicians. It's also a convenient place to have a cup of coffee and swap tall tales about your latest ride with fellow cyclists.

Our shop improvements are just the start to what we're sure is going to be our best year yet at Syracuse Bicycle. So pull up a stool and come rest your weary elbows on our new counter soon!
 
Happy Riding,
 
Paul and Trish
