I happened to be staying near the Portland airport for one night and had to swing by. I met Shad earlier this year in SoCal and had just learned he was a bike shop owner in Portland, OR from GAry. Boulevard, Suite O, Portland, Oregon, 97212 If you're lucky you may spot this Monster Energy Honda NSX in the parking lot.Īddress: 2808 N.E. If Steve isn't busy lacing up some wheels or helping other customers he will gladly hang out and chat BMX as you look around.Īnother one of my passions is exotic cars. You may also spot the mobile quarter parked out back. One of my favorites, Eddie Fiola watching Brian Blyther air at the Pipeline.Īs you enter the shop look through the door to the left and check out the ramps built by Chilly at. Some truly great legends as well as some awesome personal shots. Spend some time in the vestibule and check out the history Danny and Steve have witnessed.

By locating the shop where it is, the new owners are free to hold evening gatherings and weekend events without disturbing neighboring businesses that would otherwise be open to the public. One of my friends commented that they're a little out of the way and seemed like an odd location to re-establish the old icon. The new shop is about half a block off Lincoln Ave. If you're making a trip to Southern California to visit Disneyland or Universal Studios, you've got to add a stop at The Bicycle Source to your itinerary. RL Osborn and Mike Buff hung out their regularly and Steve Blackey probably worked on their bikes more than once. If you're old school BMX then you remember their stickers plastered on bikes and their ads in the magazines. Hours: Tuesday through Sunday 11:00am to 6:00pmĮ-Mail: Steve Blackey, Dan Hubbard and Gary Raagas
