We are proud memebers of SWFBUD, South West Florida Bicycle United Dealers. This club was founded in 2007 by local bicycle shops who simply wanted a voice. This group, now consisting of eight bicycle shops, is committed to working together to promote bicycle safety & advocacy in the Tampa Bay Area putting preasure on the local government agencies to clean up our streets, and to follow the existing laws for new road construction when concerning bicycle lanes. Each year SWFBUD organizes and hosts the Bicycle Bash by the Bay.

That's right, bicycle shops working together for the greater good!
