(Back Story) So my review starts with a "Bad Dad" moment…read more Accidentally let my son's bike fall out of my open hatch on my car while backing up this morning and ran it over. Derailleur (yes, that's how it spelled, thank you Google) was completely twisted, cables crushed and slight bend to derailleur hanger. My son rides daily and how would I tell him when he came home from school that the bike was wrecked. (Start Review) I called Catskill Bicycle Supply shortly after they opened. Spoke with Lee on the phone and he said to bring the bike in and he would look at it. They were open on a Monday which doesn't happen a lot in rural New York which was nice. I brought the bike in and he took a quick look and told me a few things he saw and asked me to leave the bike and he would get back to me with an estimate. I left expecting to hear from him later in the week. Shortly after noon time, I had a text with a very reasonable and detailed estimate from them. I gave them the green light to make the repairs and again made an assumption that I would here from them by the end of the week at the earliest. Two hours later, Lee texted that my son's bike was ready for pick up, exactly four hours after being broken. They were able to squeeze in the repairs while waiting for parts on other repairs and explained that a two hour turnaround isn't the norm but they knew the kid would be sad without his bike. Can't thank them enough for the great service. Now the quandary, do I tell my son of what transpired since 8:30am today or just park the bike? Tips: Located on Main Street Catskill conveniently with street parking. While this was a service visit, their bike's for sale looked pretty amazing. Was in and out so quick, I never got any photos.

I wound up buying a pair of AWESOME Norco VLTs (SO mush fun!!!) which, to Norco's credit they will ONLY sell through dealers. RESIST the direct to consumer route-DON'T do it!!! Catskill Bicycle Supply provided fantastic, personal service, customized the suspension, bars, etc. and dialed our bikes in to the tee for us! And... it was a better deal than any of the direct to consumer options out there and with REAL (awesome) in person people to support the bikes!!! We were SO pleased we bought a 3rd e MTB, a (hardly) used Specialized that they also dialed in for my wife.

Had my stackable washer/dryer replaced today by Ackerman's. My dealing with this company from the…read morevery beginning was one of efficiency, professionalism and reliability. They called to let me know when the appliances would be in and when they would be installed. No excuses, no delays and no nonsense - they were right on target which is unbelievable in todays market when everything is on backorder. The installers were clean and very respectful of my property. Whatever problems they encountered they handled without any hassles or extra cost. I highly recommend this company. Maria C

I first purchased appliances (SubZero reefer, Asko dw, Viking range) from Ackerman's in 1999, I had…read moreheard beforehand that their motto was "If we don't sell them we don't service them", which is logical, given that our rural region's authorized sales and service centers are generally separated by ~30 to fifty miles. I chose them over a competitor twenty-five miles closer to me because of their reputation for honest dealing and skilled service technicians. Over the past twenty years, I have found this to be the case. I recently replaced my original dw with a new Asko from Ackerman's, whose technician and I ran into problems that called for an oscillating saw (neither of us had one and it would have taken an hour to locate and obtain one from a neighbor) but were solved with hammer, chisel, muscle, and skill (none of it mine). Really impressive.

Athens Rural Cemetery was an unplanned GEM!…read more It is beside the 1826-incorporated Reformed Church of Athens. After eating a fast breakfast in Athens, like the adventurer I am - I came across this little field alongside the local Reformed Church. I highly recommend a brief stop. The entrance is magnificent in that old scrawled metal 1870 style. There are stone columns on either side with a big metal sign atop it, that reads: ATHENS RURAL CEMETERY. Inside are various sizes of stone pillars and markers. The field is plain. Looking toward the Athens city one has a glimpse through the forest of the trees and Hudson. This is not just a solemn place, but very cool for a quick family excursion. It's very big, with one large field that stretches out several blocks in size. There are fascinating ornamented pillars and Stone mausoleums on the street side and a 2nd cemetery up at the end of North Street. Review: 5
