I have been looking around Liverpool for a good bike store and found this place to be great value and not to mention much friendlier than a big corporation. The staff no what their talking about and they do their best to help you regardless of your budget which in my case was very small indeed. The shop itself is a bit old fashioned and could do with a spruce up but this is no bad thing as it makes it feel more personal. I'm not going to say that the range here is as good or as modern as a big store but the value certainly competes and the staff are fantastic. A personal touch and a lovely well run business.

This fabulous walking and cycling route follows the old railway line and is looked after by Sustrans (a transport charity) for everyone.
