Bikes
it rained almost all day yesterday and I dont know how it happened but my bike chain and many other parts got seriously rusted and other small problems occured.
Does Mac Cycle repair bikes and sell bikes??
If not, is there a bike repair/sale shop anywhere around campus??

MaCycle does indeed repair and sell bikes!

There is also Pierek's (sp) Cycle across from the Barn on King Street; I know they sell bikes, but I don't think they repair...especially not for as cheap as MaCycle!

Also, there is a partnership with ACT and Macgreen where you can rent bikes as well, but that one is still getting off the ground.

pirek's does do repairs, but macycle will definitely be cheaper - i believe pirek's is more for hard-core bikers. i know someone who races mountain and road bikes and that's where they go.
