To reiterate many other comments, Kevin is incredibly knowledgeable on his craft. The store inventory is focused on high performance bikes, and is a serious bikers dream store and owner. The first 2 times visiting, I waited and looked around while Kevin gave his undivided attention to another customer. When it was my time, Kevin gave me all the focus, answers and suggestions I could have ever wanted. Can't wait for my next trip back to the desert and a return visit to Bikeman!

Vic is exactly the kind of bicycle mechanic every cycling community hopes to have…read more I recently pulled my street bike out of storage, inspired by the growing CV Link trail system here in the Coachella Valley, and brought it to Vic for service. The experience reminded me why knowledgeable, independent craftsmen remain so valuable. First and foremost, Vic is a cyclist himself. He understands bicycles not just as machines, but as tools that people rely upon for recreation, transportation, fitness, and adventure. His knowledge is extensive, his workmanship is meticulous, and his advice is always practical and honest. One aspect of his business that particularly impressed me is that he charges for his expertise and labor, while passing parts through to customers without a markup. As a result, his recommendations are based on performance, reliability, and suitability rather than sales incentives. That level of transparency is increasingly rare. Having explored other repair options before bringing the bike to Vic, I came away feeling that he offers exceptional value. His pricing is fair, his workmanship is first-rate, and every dollar spent feels directed toward either the bicycle itself or the expertise required to keep it performing at its best. As he transitions to a mobile repair service, I suspect many local cyclists will find the added convenience to be a tremendous benefit. Highly recommended.

I have been vacationing in Palm Springs for the last 2 months when my 8 year old Pedego comfort cruiser lost power. I was absolutely devastated as I ride my bike daily while in Palm Springs. I called my local store in Oregon & received the kindest most professional treatment any customer would be thrilled to get. He called Pedego's corporate office to troubleshoot the issue with my bike. He called me to let me know what he & the corporate techs determined the answer to my problem. But he did not stop there! He offered to call the Palm Springs store to share what the troubleshooting session uncovered. Later he called me back stating that it might be better if I called the store directly because they seemed to busy to chat with him. I called the store immediately & they were extremely rude but said they would call me back in 30 minutes to see if they could get the parts & do the repairs before I returned to Oregon. I had not received a return call 30 hours later so I called again & left a message. The following day I called again & left another message. 3 days after the initial call I called 1 last time & left a final message. If you looking to buy a quality Ebike consider Pedego. IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR QUALITY & PROFESSIONAL CUSTOMER SERVICE STAY AWAY FROM THE PALM SPRINGS & LAQUINTA DEALERSHIPS. This 1 star review is generous at best. #PedegoElectricBikes #OfficialPedegoOwnersGroup #HelloFun

DO slow and/or stop and take it in and capture photos and have a great time; 5) at the end you ride back in the van. - - - Brief Background - - - My wonderful wife and I just enjoyed a trip to Pam Desert and San Diego, with a visit to La Jolla. One of the more exciting activities was riding the Earthquake Canyon ride... again! I first rode wit Big Wheel Tours, just me, on one of our trips to Palm Desert back around 2005; then in 2008 or 2009 we enjoyed a family ride, my wife pedaled with our daughter in a pumpkin seat and I pedaled with our son in a pumpkin seat. Now they are both in college so we are traveling, together, just us. On this trip, my wife recommended this ride, and what a recommendation! Even if the weather was not as amazing as it was (clear skies, mid-80s), it would have been a great ride. - - - The Prep - - - All riders meet at the pickup location; we happened to meet in Palm Desert, at the parking lot for Morton's, across the street from the JW Marriott & Marriott Vacation Club's Desert Spring Villas. From there, you're all in the van. Three of us couples rode that day; Ben was our friendly and helpful and knowledgeable guide + chauffeur + chase van driver. Ben is wise about many things, from the weather and geology of the Coachella Valley, and nearby Joshua Tree National Park, to animals including his falconry interest, and much more. Ben is also helpful in getting you ready to ride. The Earthquake ride is through the Box Canyon... It's off I-10, east of the Valley; at the same exit, to the South, as you would take if you were going north to the Joshua Tree Cottonwood National Park Entrance. Ben parks in a safe place and provides the helmets and bikes; they are hybrid bikes with tires thicker than 10-speed road bikes and not as thick as a mountain bike. You share your height when you register, and they bring a couple extras to make sure you have one that fits. The bikes have bottle holders and BWB provides water bottles. And you can leave all things in the van and they will be there when you are picked up; and if you need something you can stop and get it. - - - The Ride - - - A fellow rider was accurate when she shared: biking / cycling / riding is just the right pace... driving is too fast to take in all the beauty of the desert and this canyon, and walking is too slow. So true. So true. The Coachella Valley leads down to the Salton Sea, which is the second-lowest elevation in North America, at -234 feet below sea level; most of places visitors stay in the Valley - Palm Springs, Palm Desert, etc., are ~ 250-450 feet in elevation. The Earthquake Canyon ride starts just over 1,500 feet in elevation and finishes ~ -180 below sea level. On the drive you'll notice the gentle uphill climb along I-10 eastbound. That similar slope is your Earthquake Canyon friend. Ben shared the five sections of the canyon, and each is distinct and readily seen; thanks, Ben for sharing! BWB will pace you in the van, so you can ride at your pace and stop for photos and to take it in. Impressive are the views of the layers of the rock that are tilted by the San Andreas fault, which you ride over! Impressive are the plants growing along the ride. Impressive are the minimal vehicles you'll likely encounter. Toward 15 miles you'll cross over one of the aqueducts that brings water to the farmland that provides so much of our food in the grocery stores, especially the produce we enjoy in the winter. The ride will likely end in Mecca; you'll hand back the helmets and turn in the bikes; you may likely stop by a stand where you can get fresh-cut fruit or something else. - - - The Ride Back - - - BWB will get you to a place with a restroom before the drive back. The ride back helps you see more farmland and some palm tree farms. Soon you're back at the drop-off/pickup spot, and happy for such a great ride.

Upon arriving at the store, I was initially confused since the signage says Sports Warehouse. Upon walking to up the store entrance, I saw logos on the door signifying that the store contains sports equipment for tennis, running, pickleball, and other racket sports. When the store opened, I was warmly greeted by store employees and asked if I need assistance. While walking around the store, I was impressed by the layout of the store as well as the clearly labels sports areas of for tee is, running, and pickleball. The store has a good balance of clothing as well as sports accessories including footwear, rackets, and Stanley tumblers. After walking around and looking at items for running, tennis, and pickleball as viewing the prices for numerous items in the store, I decided to purchase a pair of socks. I would have purchased a running tank tops from the store but it appeared that they didn't carry shirts for plus size runners in the store. After selecting my running socks, for purchase, I asked the employee if they accept Apple Pay and was happy when she replied yes. The employee who rung up my purchase was friendly and efficient. While my shopping experience was pleasant, I suggests that the addition of plus size clothing for bigger runner would open the store up to an bigger customer base as well as maybe adding a clearance section in the store for budget conscious shoppers.
