Village Cycles

Long story short. I was up a creek without a paddle and Village Cycles on Lopez went way above and beyond to help save my island bike adventure. Thank you Heidi and Michael! Easily 6 out of 5 stars
Full Story.
I took a bicycle trip out to the San Juan Islands and ended up camping on Lopez Isl. with my girlfriend. About two days in both tubes on my gf’s bike went flat. No problem I thought, ill just replace the tubes with spares that I brought. After flipping the bike I noticed the issue. Both tires had worn completely through to the tube in spots. Crap. I did a quick search for bike shops on the island who might be open on the weekend. Only one. Village cycles. They would be closing in 30min… I ride like the wind and get there just in time… run up to the door. Locked. !@#$
A note on the door says owners are away. Hart sinking, feeling dejected. I figure, small town ill give em a call and just maybe. I call the number on the door and the message says the family are away on vacation. Shoot. Hang up without leaving a message. My phone is about to die so I start biking back to camp.
About 10 min later I get a text from the owner Heidi! She noticed I called and asked if I was trying to reach the shop. I explained my situation and she hung in there with me through spotty phone service and my phone dying, brainstorming ways to get me a tire. Eventually she recalled they had a few tires stacked in back for recycling and I could check for the right size. Fingers crossed I started looking through the pile… Success! Two tires found that would get us through the tour. Village Cycles literally saved my trip. Thank you Heidi and Michael!

Great quality bikes for a good price.
They just leave them locked up at the dock side and you use them and then drop them back to the same place.

they have bikes by the ferry sometime. It was great that we can take those bikes to ride to the shop and change for better fitting ones for our trip. they gave good suggestions for the route. highly recommended.

Cute bicycle rental, sale, and repair shop with most commonly needed cycling supplies such as gloves, socks, eyeglass mirrors, and water bottles. They have some fun and unique vintage bikes on display and for sale as well. Located in the heart of the Lopez Village.
