A review of this place: awesome service

I’ve been here for two purchases/services and each time received excellent customer service.

First, I was about to try to take home some skiis that they repaired on my bicycle, but the ski mechanic offered to drop them off at my house since it was on his way. I didn’t have to worry about my fixed skiis getting scratched up all over again.

Secondly, I went in here to buy a tent and sleeping bag, but found out that the tents were a bit too high-end for me, so they referred me to REI. I ended up getting a cheap tent there, but came back for a sleeping bag since they had a better deal. And after that I was about to buy a $125 jacket until one of the clerks told me it probably wasn’t going to be a good piece of clothing for bicycling – this advice was really appreciated.

I’ve been really happy with the service here and will likely stop by in the future for any winter sports or other stuff. Oh also, these guys were twice as knowledgeable about the gear as the guys at the REI in Tacoma. I give my highest recommendations to this shop.
