My passion for bikes started when my parents opened a shop in the 1980s called Parker Bikes (we were located in Parker, Colorado). My love for cycling has continued since then, in my work and with my hobbies of road cycling and mountain biking. After my parents’ shop closed, I worked for other bike shops (including Lee’s Cyclery in Fort Collins), where I built and sold bikes, fixed and tuned up bikes, and managed inventory.
I love working on bikes and want to share my passion for cycling with others. So, next time you’re talking cycling with someone and wondering how to get started or where to go from here, you can think, “I know a guy!”

Cool stories. I used to ride a lot in downtown Denver during that time period and could easily identify the bike messengers. I mostly recall one older messenger that was extremely short and rode some kind of cruiser bike with tall handlebars and a basket on front. He looked out of place but was always pedaling. That was considered a hip job at the time

As a retired UPSer, I thought I'd share a little tidbit that might surprise you. Two brothers started out as bike messengers in Seattle WA back in 1907. They expanded their business to what is the global entity UPS. Lee aka Big Tom
