    Wrench Man and Gasparilla Weekend Update

    January 27, 2010 // No Comments »

    Service Team Update

    We are proud to welcome the addition of a new member to the City Bike Tampa Family.

    Mike Weimar joined forces with City Bike Tampa last week and has already made a significant impact on not only our level of service, but more than doubled the total years of experience in technical knowledge around bicycle repair and maintenance that our shop has to offer.

    Mike is not just an accomplished bicycle mechanic and photojournalist, he is also a strong advocate for bicycling throughout the Tampa Bay community which is reflected through his work with the Tampa Bay Bike Co-Op and other bike shops and organizations in the bay area. 

    Our service docket is stacking up daily, but we are still able to turn most jobs around within 24 hours now that we have teams working in 2 shifts.  Now is a great time to bring you bike in for a tune up OR have us pick it up for you at no additional cost in the 33602, 33606, 33609 or 33611 zip codes.

    Gasparilla Weekend Hours

    Gasparilla in Tampa

    Crazy as it may sound, we will be closed on Saturday January 30 and re-opening with normal hours on January 31.  Please enjoy the holiday, plan ahead and pillage the town safely. We apologize for any inconvenience.

    Arghhh!
