Atlantic coast - statesboro bike shop rave!!!!
« on: June 07, 2012, 08:03:09 pm »
Just completed atlantic coast route st Augustine to statesboro, ga and beyond but promised a shout out to Billy at The Bike Shop in Statesboro, Ga.  The route maps and locals were not real clear about this bike shop.  I didn't expect much....they don't open, or answer the phones until noon.  Bottom bracket bearings had been complaining for days......squawking and popping, grinding and just bitching in general.  The Bike Shop is the real deal, no doubt.  Remember that song, "Billy don't be a hero?"............ Billy swapped out the front bearings on my trek 520, it was like a fresh pair of shorts...oh my.....you know the feeling.  Put me to the front of the line.  Treated me like family.

In the psychosis of solo touring, in the rural roads of Georgia and south carolina I was singing billy's praise.  Billy, you are a hero! 

It's the real deal, folks.  The Bike Shop, Statesboro, Ga.  billy.  He will set you up.

Thanks Bill.

Yup this shop is super good.  Paid an unplanned visit there a few years back; nice bunch of people.
singlespeed touring - life generally requires just one speed.
Southern Tier, TransAm, tons of places in between.
