Westport Road Location is now "Openish"

Hey all it has been a little slower getting the new shop open than I expected,  but I am officially changing the new Westport Road Shop status from "coming soonish" to "openish".  


Am I going to be blown away by how awesome it is?    Probably not,  but if you are close enough to the Goose Creek Gang to have ended up here,  you will get it.   We still have a lot of inventory to bring in and still a bit of work to do on the building,  but we are plugging away at it and making progress every day.   So while we are not doing any major advertising campaigns,  we are slowly getting the word out to our existing customers and friends.  


What will I find at the new shop?


Service area up and running -  We have our service area set up and ready for use and have done the first few repairs.  So although we are a little sparse on in stock service parts I am still confidant that we can get about 90% of repairs done within 24 hours.



Bikes-   There are about 10 bikes on the floor right now, so not a great selection but we still have the ability to pull bikes from the other shop or grab them from a local warehouse.  So as a deal until March,  I will give 10% off any bike I can't get in and built within 72 hours. 



Stuff -  Stuff is rolling in quickly,   You would be surprised as how many service parts there are that don't even make it to the floor,  they just live in the basement until we need them.   Its rolling in and  you will find new stuff every day.



When is the Grand Opening?    - Not 100% sure,  but we are hoping sometime early to mid March we will have a Grand Opening for the Westport Rd. store in conjunction with the 10 year aniversary of the original La Grange  Store.


Is the La Grange Store going to remain open?


YES.   This is not a move it is an expansion.  The LaGrange store is open and with the help of Kyle actually looks better and runs more efficiently than it ever has before. 



Where is the new shop located?



10210 Westport Rd
louisville, Ky 40241
Just inside the Gene Snydor, across from Home Depot


So to all of you who have been with us all these years.  Thank you so much for sticking with us.  This is the next step in what has been a wild ride,  and we are excited to have you with us.
