G's to Participate in Whittier Bike to Work Day

On May 15, commuters throughout California are encouraged to cycle to work. The bike to work day event in Whittier will be held at the Historic Transportation Depot on Greenleaf. The city and various businesses will provide information on access to bike routes, promote safety and promote bicycling in general throughout the County. There will be prize drawings, food and drink and free hand-outs. G's Cyclery will be there to provide information and help. Please join us to promote this alternative way to commute which is both healthy and environmentally friendly.

A Short Tour

As you enter G's, take a quick look to the right for a site you won't find in every bicycle shop. You see, Earnest is just into bikes. He has other interests as well. He has 1000's of tin cars. If you enjoy checking out this very cool art form, you can do so to your hearts delight.

Further into the store, you will less surprised to see bicycles, tires, tubes, clothing, and all the other things you need to make your cycling experience perfect.

The store itself is on a great street in Uptown Whittier. Very, very cute. The interior has faux weathered brick and rafters that might give you a moments pause that you are actually in a quaint village in the South of France.
