I can't say enough about the level of customer service I've had from Speed River Bicycle.

I've been coming to Backpeddling for years. Clayton, the owner, has created a shop that welcomes…read moreanyone, and has the greatest parts selection in Guelph by far. My family has bought over 10 bikes and countless parts from them over the past 6 years, and we have been nothing but happy. I think of the head mechanics Nils has moved on, and same with another guy, so I cant comment on the mechanic service. However, every used bike I have purchased from them has preformed better than expected. All the shifting has been locked in and honed. These guys have an amazing ability to source parts from anywhere, and carry a wide range of bikes. That being said, their specialty is bmx, dirt jumping, park riding, etc. Don't bring your Durace 9000 here, because the mechanics probably dont work on that very often. The walls of this warehouse are smeared with bikes from all eras. Penny Farthigs, retro bmx, track bikes, everything you can think of. It is very neat! The only downside to this place is the chaos. In the summer you better be prepared to wait because the shop is tremendously busy, and there is no organization or "lines", just first come, first served. If you take your time and wait for a worker, they should set you up properly. This could be disorienting if you are not used to it, and you might feel ignored. But this is just the norm here.

We had a great experience kayaking along the Grand River with Canoeing the Grand. We booked online,…read moreand upon arrival and after checking in, we had a short briefing (where to stop, to watch out for the ripples in the water as they indicated shallow water with lots of rocks, safety precautions) and were soon outfitted with PFDs and given the paddles. We were driven to the launch point upstream, where the kayaks were already there. The river was very calm and gentle, and going downstream was fairly easy. The river wasn't too busy, other than a few other canoes, kayaks, and floaties that we passed by. You really get the peaceful feeling of being in nature. The wildlife we spotted included a heron and dozens of ducks and geese. The end point was where the office was (where we checked in). The whole process was smooth and efficient, and all the staff were helpful, knowledgeable, and friendly. Great way to spend a summer day in the water!

We will be back for fall when the leaves change. Thanks again Shelly!

I commute on my bike, so wanted it to be light, but also be able to carry what I need for work. Since buying my bike a year ago, I took it back in for an annual service and they made sure my bike was in good condition, and let me know that the bolt on my front tire was loose and to give it a check every now and again. So glad they we're looking out for my safety.
