If you live in Fells Point or the surrounding area and have wished that there was a bike shop nearby, you'l be happy to hear that
Joe's Bike Shop, located in Mt. Washington, has expanded opening a new location at 723-B South Broadway.
Ask Joe Traill why a bike shop and it seems it was always his destiny.
"I fell in love with bikes at a young age. I enjoyed riding them. Then I started working in a bike shop to feed the habit and then years after that moved onto owning a shop," he says.
Though the Mt. Vernon shop has been open since 1972, Traill says he has only owned it for the past 10 years. He chose Fells Point for his new location because its "a neat neighborhood and an exciting example of how people imagine city life. You could live down here without ever having to leave. You've got great restaurants. You've got great entertainment. You've got great living. You've got everything you would need and we felt that we wanted to be a part of that," Traill explains.
Joe's Bike Shop offers a range of bikes for novice to expert riders at reasonable prices. While the shop doesn't currently offer rentals, Traill says that's in the works for next spring.
