He found just the right bike for me and even allowed me to pay $50 a month until I was paid off and I had a few extra bells and whistles done to it. Great service got the bike all tuned up and I already made my inaugural run with my 19-year-old daughter. Pretty good for an old guy at 71.

Fabulous staff that are willing to take the time to work with a newbie & speak in a language that I…read morecould understand. They've brought me along so that I don't consider myself the 'crunch on the pedals,' inexperienced cyclist I was... The repair shop is efficient and reasonably priced for the quality of work done. They even have taken the time to show me a variety of things I can do on my own! All of the staff have certifications hanging in the shop & have been SAG on the local rides I've been a part of. (Which I am sure they would rather be riding in!) John, the owner, has a laid back demeanor and really spent a good amount of time with me before I purchased my bike. Rather than up-selling me more bike than I needed (or could afford) he assisted me in finding the right Trek for my needs. I am not a racer, and those days have passed me by - I just enjoy riding and put in from 20 to 60 miles on a normal day. As I was upgrading from a hybrid to a road bike, I cannot emphasize enough how happy I am that I made the move to the 'right' bike for me... I've found their accessories pricing to be equivalent with what you can find on-line as I use RedLaser to compare prices. I would rather support the local shop than ship from who knows where... If they don't have something in the store, they are happy to order it for you. I ended up with a bike rack for my car for less than I could find on-line, no extra cost for them to order it special for me. (Of course, I couldn't use the off the shelf, "one-size fits most," generic racks with my car!) The shop also has group rides, and they are great in keeping the group together at a pace that pushes you but doesn't kill you. I am quite sure that they are capable of maintaining a much faster pace, but they have tailored the rides around who shows up. While they won't offer advice unless asked for it, they have provided great tips and improved my skills each time I ask for input. I went in during one of the special national sales to replace my tires and shoes after a year of use, and rather than taking my money and giving me new stuff - they advised against it as all still had a good amount of life left in them! You can also find your Frisbee Golf needs here! Perfect for the course at Capaha Park. While the products they offer are high quality, the prices are reasonable, the staff is knowledgeable and friendly, I think that the thing I hold in highest regard is their integrity.

He took the time to go through sizing the bike and explaining all the functions to the kid. He adjusted the seat, bars, brakes, etc. Lifetime adjustments too. It seems he tries to find new bikes at a cost people in the Festus area are going to be attuned to. He carries GT, Schwinn, Raleigh, and several other brands as well. If your are shopping for a bike, at least shop local and check this guy out before heading to Walmart to buy. You might be surprised what you find here. I found a new 2O13 model with all the same equipment for 200 cheaper than Arnold or South County bikes. I thought this was a great deal.

Another Thursday, another pizza passport stop! We ventured out to Festus again to Pedal 'N Pi…read more Part bike shop part pizza restaurant. We called ahead to let them know we were coming since we had 14 this trip and they don't take reservations. When we arrived we spoke to Jesse and let her know that there were 14 of us, it was already pretty busy and it's a pretty small space but she said she would make it work. We had arrived about a half hour earlier than everyone was meeting so we could secure seating and in the end, it all worked out! Jesse is a phenomenal asset to the restaurant! Not only did she figure out our seating, she was personable , upbeat, and on top of the whole room it seemed like. While waiting for the rest of our group we sat at the high-top tables and chatted with a couple of regulars. They gave us lots of good scoop on what to order and their recommendations were spot on. So friendly! We ordered wings, the Olive Juice Forever pizza, the BBQ chicken without onion, and a giant cinnamon roll for dessert. I loved the wings, good flavor, a good amount of sauce. We got them with ranch; it was good but very dill forward if you need to know. The Olive Juice Forever pizza was Olive Oil, mozzarella, kalamata olives, green olives, garlic, red onion, and a touch of sausage and pepperoni. I really enjoyed it, afraid it would be too salty =but it was perfect. The crust was puffy, charred perfectly, and had a good chewy bite. The giant cinnamon roll was giant! We would order it again, it was very good. I also had a beer; a Kona Big Wave or Mango Cart mixed with the Main and Mill draft. I and I really liked it. I am not a bike rider, but I do love pizza and this place was great from the service to the atmosphere to the food and drink.

I picked the bike up and withing 25 miles the rear tire shredded on one side. I returned to the shop and was told this was just normal "wear and tear" and had nothing to do with the tune-up. I asked if an examination of the tires was nto something done in a tune-up, and they promptly told me that they have no way of knowing when a tire will shred or become unusable. The shredding was considered "a coincidence". I equate this to taking my car into the shop and know they will look at all the vital parts (tires included) and make recommendations on them. They seem to know what the remaining life span of a tire is I ended up having to buy a new tire and tube, which they would not even give me a discounted price on. They also mentioned that the tune-up plan I had purchased should have never been sold with the bike (not sure what that was all about...). I have been to many of the other bike shops in town and they are knowledgeable and thorough. These folks seem to be in it just for the money. Don't go here unless you really are in a bind. Go to a place where they know what they are talking about.

deep disappointment with Dick's Sporting Goods for its decision to no longer sell firearms,…read moreammunition, and related accessories. As a customer and sportsman, I find it disingenuous that a store with "Sporting Goods" in its name has chosen to turn its back on a core part of American sporting culture. Firearms and hunting sports have been a central component of outdoor recreation for generations. By removing these products from your shelves, Dick's has alienated a significant portion of its customer base--people who engage in legal, responsible shooting sports, hunting, and self-defense. Caving to ideological pressures may win short-term headlines, but it erodes the trust and loyalty of long-standing customers who came to Dick's specifically because it was a one-stop shop for all sporting needs--including firearms. This decision is not only disappointing, it's a clear departure from what your brand originally stood for. If Dick's no longer intends to support the full range of traditional sporting goods, then perhaps it's time to reconsider the name on the front of the store.
