Paradise Garage

Author: meredith :: Posted: Sun Apr 27, 2008 10:40 am Paradise Garage Quote: It's been a long road from Flagstaff, Arizona to Columbus, Ohio. We (my girlfriend and I) have roots in the midwest, but have lived in Arizona for the last ten years. I was a partner in AZ Bikes, which is a full service bicycle shop back in Flagstaff. We've been in Columbus since December(nice Winter-what the ????), and are ready to open up shop and get some Spring air in our lungs. Paradise Garage is a lifestyle store: one part apparel and one part bicycle and accessories shop. We believe all bikes are good. The focus of the bikes carried in the store is commuting and cruising. We will have everything from Dutch city bikes(as seen in the current window), limited edition track bikes, simple street cruisers, and 26" BMX Cruisers. At this time will be servicing only the bicycles we sell due to the limited square footage. However we offer lifetime free tune-ups on all new bicycles. We always have a pump available if your tires are a little low on air, and a range of tubes on hand to fix your flat tire for a reasonable fee. Now to the clothing...We are carrying mens and womens clothing lines from contemporary American and European labels. Some of the lines we carry are Bench (a UK brand), Brown Label Denim (made in California), Skunkfunk (from Spain), Soundgirl (NY), and WeSC (Sweden). We will have other lines coming in for the Summer and Fall. So stay tuned... 941 N. High Street Columbus, OH 43201 614-299-0899 (0) Replies

Tri-Tech Multisport

Author: meredith :: Posted: Thu Apr 24, 2008 10:57 am Tri-Tech Multisport Quote: In February of 1995, Christ and Leanne started Tri-Tech Multisport with one major goal: to gain quick access to the newest, coolest multisport stuff on the market. We wanted a place to exist where we could ride every major triathlon and time trial bike, back to back. We wanted titanium cranks - in stock! We wanted ZIPP and HED wheels - in stock! We wanted wetsuits and tri-briefs and the ultimate in lightweight cycling shoes and gear. That goal has been realized. It has also evolved over the last several years, but we remain true to one central theme: we can only truly know and sell products that we use, value and believe in - whole heartedly. Christ began racing triathlons in 1984 and by the early 1990's was winning events. He competes in mountain bike, adventure and road races, as well. Leanne, although not the veteran to the sport that Christ is, has been racing since 1990. She now leads our women's USCF cycling team. We both have gained a great appreciation for and understanding of high quality, high performance equipment - WE KNOW OF WHAT WE SELL. By racing ourselves and questioning folks about their own race equipment and gear, we maintain a selection of quality mountain biking, cycling and triathlon-specific products that we believe to be excellent. 6155 Huntley rd., Ste.
