It’s Happened
We have finally put enough finishing touches on the shop to declare that it is open for business. It’s taken more hard work and help from everyone than I would have ever guessed. But the bikes are awesome and the coffee is so delicious. We also have great neighbors, one of which is the Baker’s Wife who we sell an assortment of their yummy baked goods. So stop on by and grab an espresso and check out the coolest bikes around.

Congrats Josh! Very cool clubhouse you built.
Yeah, we are so happy for you and the crew.You are all doing a great job.
Congratulations, Josh!
Jeanine and I are excited to see the shop, the bikes, and have a cup o’ joe!
Soon I hope,
Sam
I’m a coffee snob and a cyclist, so your cafe is one I will surely visit.
Josh and team,
I can’t tell you how much I appreciate the work you did on my ’97 Bianchi. Sitting in the saddle and peddling it again after the overhaul you did was sweet. The bike seems better than brand new, and made me remember why I fell in love with it in the first place. Your team’s workmanship on the bike also made it very apparent that the overhaul was long past due and I had been riding on worn out equipment for too long.
Jim and I are glad you have moved into our neighborhood. We wish you success and certainly will have us as customers!
Sincerely,
Rick Christensen
A couple months a go I discovered your neato shop.
I called my girlfriend immediately after I walked out and told her..
“I just visited a bike shop that if I was going to open one would be”
Wow, great bikes, and great people. I picked up a water bottle and tshirt that I proudly use. I’d have bought one of your cool jerseys but you didn’t have my size.
anyway…we don’t have anything as nice as your shop here in Rochester, but you’ve given me yet another reason to visit the cities.
Also, I was at Redwing for the race a couple weeks ago and I got chatting with a fella wearing a disgruntled fish jersey. We yacked about the race and whatnot. Afterwards, I turned to a buddy of mine and said, “You have to visit that shop. You can’t help but love it.”
Anyway, just wanted to encourage you to keep up the great work.

Awesome shop, great bikes, can you open one in St Paul?
Saw your feature in Bicycling Magazine…congrats. Sound like a pretty sweet gig. Tell me you have an Angry Catfish kit in the works; I’m sure they would sell like hotcakes!!
A very cool musician and neighbor has recommended we meet at your place for coffee and treats. Can’t wait. Looking forward to see what you’ve done to the old Our Own. It’s got to be an improvement!
Wow!…my little hometown of Auburn, NY, located in the Finger Lakes, needs a bike shop like this…sounds great…can you mail order me a coffee…it”s about 15 degrees here today!

Hi,
I can’t say how happy I am that a shop like this opened in MSP. I currently live in Portland, OR and I’m moving to Minneapolis. I’m excited about discovering something like this.
