When a bike lock won't unlock half the time, that's a problem. Although the lock was made overseas, Dash stood by the customer and refunded my money. THAT IS HOW CUSTOMER SERVICE SHOULD WORK. Even for the little things. Thank you Dash.

One of the questions was "Can I donate my used bike and bike accessories?" The response was "Yes. Donations can be dropped off during all open hours: Tuesday: 3:00 - 8:00 p.m.; Thursday: 3:00 - 6:00 p.m.; Saturday: 12:00 p.m. - 5:00 p.m.; Open on Sundays during the Summer (May to September): Sunday: 1:00 p.m. - 5:00 p.m. I visited Recycle-A-Bike on Tuesday about 7:00pm and a staff member welcomed me into the store. I informed him that I have two bikes to donate and he offered to help grab the bikes. He told me that he really appreciated the donation. When I was browsing the Recycle-A-Bike website, I noticed they offer a 5 week course to rebuild a bike-Changing flat tires/patching tubes, adjusting brakes, chain and cable maintenance, tuning and alignment of the derailleur/shifting mechanisms, truing up a wheel that is out of alignment, and checking/tightening bolts/fasteners on your bike. At the end of the class, you keep the bike. How cool is that?!

Still five stars. We came in looking for a number of things. Kind of a scouting mission. REI has…read moreplenty to offer for hiking, camping, biking, kayaking, and more. We are looking for, among other things, a smaller tent (ours is huge) that we can easily lug around with us and REI has a large selection. We signed up for their membership several years ago. Just tell them your phone number when making a purchase and you get credit for the purchase. We picked up a UV protective t-shirt as a gift for someone. It was reasonably priced imho, very soft and moisture wicking. Brilliant. I should probably get myself one too. BTW, the company no longer offers bags. None. So bring a reusable bag if you plan to shop here. It's just another way to reduce waste and be a good steward. Some of the prices can be high, but not everything. They sell Patagonia which is an expensive brand, as well as other, more moderately priced items. You just have to know what you want and what you are willing to pay. If you check out the bulletin board upstairs, they offer guided excursions that look really fun. I check out their selection of hiking poles as I am looking to buy some. Everything from really reasonable basic models to foldable, light weight pricey models. So you have options. They have pet items. Personal care items. Clothes and shoes are upstairs. So many types of water bottles. Camping items for both the thru-hiker and the car-camper. Check them out. They are a good resource and the staff are friendly and happy to assist.
