I brought both bikes to Bobcat and they did a great job on both bikes but that is not the end of it. They are not part changers but real troubleshooters!

I highly recommend this shop for all of your biking needs. Thanks Bobcat!

The Crew, Jake, Wes and Sarah were amazing and very knowledgeable and cheerful individuals. They really added to the experience! The views of the landscapes were very scenic and when you get to the top of the loop, you see a beautiful view of the coast! This adventure is about an hour long and definitely worth it! You get to enjoy the beautiful outdoors and get in some not too strenuous exercise too. Sadly, this business will be closed permanently at the end of August 2025. This is a must before then and you'll definitely enjoy every minute!

Tony really knows his bikes! And is very personable. What else would one want in a business?…read more We dropped by just to check out his shop and say hello, and Tony gave us a kind, top notch tour of his shop and the bikes in there, from amazing older ones to modern ones. And of his other interesting antiques and cars. His shop is neat and well organized, has a great area for a band and a coffee bar. His passion for bikes old and new shows through. I'd definitely return here for my biking needs and would highly recommend Tony and his shop.

I can honestly say the service at REI Bike Shop has been outstanding. Their workmanship, professionalism, and attention to detail truly stand out. A special thank you to Trent, who provided exceptional service. Trent is knowledgeable, thorough, and clearly takes pride in doing things the right way. It's rare to find someone who combines technical skill with genuine customer care, but Trent does exactly that. I also received help from mechanic David, who was professional, helpful, and clearly skilled at what he does. It's great to see a team where multiple people are committed to high standards and quality service. Based on my many years in the sport and experience with countless bikes, I can confidently say their work is top-notch. I highly recommend REI Bike Shop, and if you have the chance to work with Trent or David, you'll be in great hands.

So im a skateboarder. I am clueless about what a bicycle…read moreneeds for maintenance. Your mission with skateboards is to break them, and with bikes you find ways to preserve them. Not exactly my forte. Skate shops can have an intimidating environment and as a newbie going into a bike shop i felt that vibe in alot of places... valley bikes was the way bills wheels felt when i first walked in years ago. Not trying to make a sale but just trying to make sure that we get to enjoy the passion as they do. I regret not actually getting the names of these fellas, but i went to a couple bike shops, looking to get info and direction in what i need to do as a person who has to ride a bike out of necessity for leg rehabilitation. Perhaps i will become a bike person. Learning proper care and just being educated on the product i am purchasing has always been important to me. Not very many shops could even give me the time of day with how booming the bicycle business is during covid. I walked in and out of a couple bike stores but valley bikes did it right and really gave me a great greeting as a new customer. i felt welcome and helped me get set up and going on the path to healing my leg through riding a bicycle. I cant thank them enough and valley bikes will be my only shop worth visiting. Thanx boiz!

We had a fantastic time with Cathy on our tour of Carmel by the Sea. They have a few different…read moretours so make sure you know which one you booked as all start from the same place and (from what I could tell...) same time. Cathy actually texted me the night before to introduce herself and provide a few instructions and tips. A key tip is bring water and a small back pack or fanny pack to put the bottle in. The bikes don't all have baskets and the baskets don't hold things very well. So you might also bring a small bungee cord to keep things "in the basket" should you get a bike with a basket. Check in was a breeze. The most "difficult" part of the whole tour was finding helmets that fit and sizing the bike seats There were 6 in our tour. We left right on time at 10 and got back at 12:45. We stopped multiple times for photo ops and to look at different properties. We even got to walk through the La Playa hotel which is a beautiful property! I loved seeing and learning about the Comstock homes and the fact that the homes in Carmel by the Sea do not have street addresses. (They will soon as a new reg has passed that every property now needs a proper address... Not just a name.) All in all, I had a wonderful time and enjoyed the tour very much. I don't ride bikes often anymore as an adult and this was the first time riding an E-Bike. The learning curve is easy once you know the difference between Eco, Sport and Turbo. I enjoyed it and it made the tour almost effortless. Highly recommend Mad Dogs! Note....the coffee shop is just up around the corner. You cannot access it directly from the bike shop.

Our dog was safe and secured in his cart. i do suggest having a harness to clip! we went on a calm tuesday morning and we ended up having a private tour without other guests with us so that was lucky! thank you noah!
