ABOUT
BIKE WEST
Bike West started as Colley Bike West in 1992 by current owner
Bill Williams. It's birth was one of more independence than direct
relation as a satellite shop of Colley Ave. Bike Shop in Norfolk.
Both independent and operating as a team in quality sales and service
for many years. Until the closing of the Colley Ave. Bike shop,
where the new and permanent shop name would stem, Bike West.
The term Bike West sparks questions from customers
and other who don't understand how "west" has anything
to do with a business located 40 min from the Atlantic ocean in
Suffolk, VA (Not that far west...). Well the name is more of a cyclist
state of mind to "venture west" than anything else.. Many
American stories and accomplishments through out the history of
this great land have been born in the spirit to travel and explore
west of the Atlantic. We encourage our customers through shop rides
and trips to experience there own stories through one of the most
efficient and healthy means of travel.. The BICYCLE!
The atmosphere and employees at Bike West seem to
be a dying art compared to big box stores and the modern online
shopping. We pride ourselves in helping people with personal service
that seems to be less and less in our technical fast past world.
With the addition of our 20x20 outdoors deck over looking the Nansmond
river and our new hospitality area, we want our business with you
to be and experience that's remembered, not a sale and a number
that's forgotten.
