It all started with Pat


The founder of what is now Pat's 605 Cyclery still has his name on the sign. Pat Patterson came home from the Great War and fell in love with bicycles. He enjoyed the sport so much that he made it a career. In a future post we will spend some time with and share some pictures from that era.

Today the shop is in the hands of the 2nd generation, Ron. To be sure he is ably assisted by his son Rick, who has been with the shop for a huge part of his life. Ron has built the shop into a major force in the neighborhood. The store is well known for its expert repairs, its friendliness, and for having every possible kind of bicycle item one could hope for.

Ron and Rick look forward to meeting you and helping you with any part of your bicycling needs. They can help with proper fitting to ensure that you get a comfortable ride. They can help with the choice of which ride will best suit your plans.

We would also invite you to participate in this blog with articles and comments. You can submit your articles or ideas to patscycle@verizon.net

Video I made of my granddaughter learning to ride a bike we bought at Pat's. I give a "shout out" to Pat's in the end.
