Trailside Bicycles just finished replacing tires on my recumbent bike yesterday. I was told the job…read morewas easy and the parts available in the store when I dropped the bike off. The manager said he would do the job the first thing the next day. After two days and no word from the shop, I called and was curtly told by the manager that my bike was not ready. When I asked for a new ETA, the owner told me he had no idea and would call when the work was finished. Instead of a one-day turnaround, my bike was in that shop for 6 days. When I arrived to pick the bike up, the same manager not only provided no apology for the length of time to replace the tires, he acted like he had done me a favor to get the work done at all. This was my second time doing business with this shop over the past year with almost identical results both times. I will avoid the shop in the future.

I cannot recommend Village Cycles…read more I had hoped to have some work done on an old used bike I had and buy another, but they were unable to accommodate either request, so we moved on to give our business to another local store that's not far from here. Why were they unable to accommodate us? We didn't make an appointment for the maintenance on the used bike, which is reasonable, so we asked about trading in our used one. The answer was a flat NO because the owner has to make the deal, so I asked if we could call the owners and make a deal. The answer was a more affirmative NO. This is supposedly a retail outlet? Really? Maybe they are, but while the guy was all about telling me NO, another guy was still trying to upsell my husband on a deal that was already shut down by his colleague, so we were then told how uncomfortable my used bike is and how we should buy a new one. After being told to take a number on maintenance. DO NOT tell me how your product, sales, and service are quality while refusing my business. Village Cycles in Paddock Square seems a bit too uppity for what they purport to offer, so I went to TREK bicycles in Wildwood and spent $1600 and feel much, much better about the product, sales, and service because I actually received RESPECTFUL sales, and service! If you're serious about making a real quality purchase with people who want to listen to you and offer service, DO NOT GO TO VILLAGE CYCLES in Paddock Square!

The bike suffered a puncture and after investigation we landed here for repair. The couple who own and work in this warehouse gladly quoted us $450 to fix the puncture, even though mountain bikes aren't their specialty. After three weeks, when my my fiance went to pick up his bike, he found himself very disappointed to be overcharged and with a not so great repair job. After much discussion, the kind owners decided to try again and are currently reworking the repair. We hope this next time will be better. Stay tuned.. A couple weeks later we went to pick up his fixed bike. We were so pleased and happy with Joey and his wife who fixed the bike to the way it should be. They were super nice, friendly and did quality work. After this experience we would definitely use this repair shop again. They corrected the issue and we were so happy.

My group loved the black diamond trails which I failed at multiple times but it was so neat to weave in and out of all the different bmx like courses of ramps and drop offs and hills.

49th Ave Trailhead is a system of trails that connects 13 miles from the main Santos Trails. It is…read morea well kept trail in my opinion. The trail gives you The Good, The Bad and The Ugly when it comes to trail riding. The trail features 3 trails: Nayls South (The Good), is mainly a green rated (easy), single track trail. It's very flowy, making it ideal trail for cross country riders. Then you eventually hit a blue rated (more difficult) trail Nayls North (The Bad), which is a bit more challenging compared to its South counterpart because of the changes of elevation and many rooty areas you encounter along the way, making for a bumpy ride. Then there is The Ugly, which is Ern N Burn, a scenic blue rated trail that eventually marries itself to the Troll Bridge, a short, technical, yet fun trail. And it feels like a scavenger hunt when it comes to finding that infamous Troll and so satisfying once you do. Additionally, you will cross into the Cross Florida Greenway Trail, a paved path that crosses path in between all the trails. You will often find many road bikers using this system. It also makes for a great bailout option if you want to get away from riding on the trails. All in all, I really enjoyed this trail and cannot wait to come back.
