Address is not correct. And no way to contact them. Drove all the way over to get bike repaired and it's an address to a house.

I've driven by The Ride many times on my way to and from home but never managed to find time to stop in. Well, today I did and boy am I happy I did! I met Sean who is one of the owners, and he was so nice answering all of my questions about their services and bike tune ups. He was patient and incredibly helpful, I was blown away. Having just relocated from SF which has a multitude of bike shops all over city, it was refreshing to walk into a place and not be treated like I was simply some number in line. Allow me to explain the differences. Attitude: SF= snooty, sometimes downright rude and pretentious hipsters who you know make fun of your yuppie PUBLIC bike when you drop it off for a tune up. I know it's not "cool" and heralds a hip lifestyle of riding the streets but I like it and you should respect that. The Ride= Sean was pleasant and smiled and said bring it in, we can tune it up no problem. Costs: SF= they will charge you an arm and a leg ($100+) and not tell you what the work entails. My tire was flat in a week and wanted to charge me another $100 to repair it !?!? OR they try to give you the wrong bike back that isn't yours. Seriously, it happened to me. The Ride= I haven't dropped my bike off yet but I was quoted $55 and whatever parts or extras would be run by me for approval before being charged. I'd tune my bike up more often and keep it riding better at that price! The Ride is a small locally owned business. And it's important to support such great people who only want to help their neighbors and provide excellent customer service. If they don't have it, they can order it for you or provide suggestions. I saw a GORGEOUS bike from a brand called Simcoe which looks amazing. And these guys are the only ones in the area to carry it. Sacramento seems to have a bike friendly culture, but it's attitude about biking is less pretentious and people bike because they seem to enjoy it not because it's some political statement. So go take your bike that you love and have the owners at The Ride take care of you and your happy healthy ride! read more

Highly recommend for both bike repairs and bicycle purchases. I sent my kids over for a bike repair on a Monday afternoon, we didn't know they're closed Monday's. One of the owners, Em, happened to be driving by and saw my kids. She pulled over, asked them what they needed, opened her shop and completed the repairs. On her day off. The repairs were much appreciated because my kids a "bike rodeo" at school on the following day. Also, for those of us with growing kids who don't have money to toss around, they sell bikes that they have rebuilt and refurbished at affordable prices. They also have really nice new bikes. We have been going to another nearby shop for years but The Ride has earned our loyalty now. Very impressive customer service. read more

I can't say enough good things about this place. The owners, Em and Sean, really care about their customers. I'm new to cycling and called many bike stores around Sacramento looking for a used road bike. Many shop owners were nice, but got off the phone pretty quick when I let them know my starter-size budget (about $500). However it was totally different when I called The Ride. Em got so excited because she thought she had the perfect bike for me. I came down to their shop and she was totally right. It was perfect and right at my price point. They even added in new tires, no extra charge. Em and Sean don't make you feel silly if you are new to bikes either. Ask all the questions you want. They really want their customers to be happy. I love my bike and I can't say enough good things about The Ride. They have a customer for life!!! read more

Always have what we needed extremely helpful tries to get you in and out quickly as possible. If they don't have it they help you search for it. read more

The owner (who I think is the only one that works there) is one of the nicest people you'll ever meet. He wholeheartedly cares about making sure you're set up to have a safe and enjoyable ride and not about making money. He's always going to be the one I go to for all my bike services and accessories. Support small businesses!! read more

Did all my research and heard great things but I couldn't find the location. Maybe they need to update their address information. Really looking forward to finding it! read more

Went in to The Ride this afternoon after my pedal straight up fell off while I was heading to a volunteer shift at Happy Tails via Folsom Blvd. I usually go to Peak Adventures, and they're great, but they were closed since Sac State is between semesters. I first went in to an East Sac Bike Shop to check their selection of pedals, but their most affordable pair was $25 (one of my co-volunteers warned me that they were not very kind to the wallet). I checked Google Maps for other nearby bike shops and The Ride was the next closest. I called first to ask about their most affordable bike pedals, and, wow. I'm really glad I walked out of that first place! I first walked in and met the two super friendly owners, Em and Sean. They showed me their selection, they installed it right there, and in just a few minutes I was ready to ride again. Thank you! Based on this experience, I'm ready to make The Ride my go-to bike shop. I have a wish list of bike related things I'm saving for including new grips, reflectors, and eventually a new touring bike, and this'll be my first stop. Also, I loved the way the shop looked. The two aforementioned shops have a cold, severe look to them. The Ride is a warm, cozy shop. I looked around and saw a bunch of what looked like hand-painted signs and decor, there's a lovely blossom-esque pendant lamp just above the counter, it was a welcome contrast. I've already recommended the shop to my co-volunteers, and look forward to coming back again, hopefully with all parts in tact! I don't usually write reviews, but I saw that this was a bit out of my way, nestled in a residential area, so for fear of what that might imply for store traffic, I felt I had to get on here to add to what I hope will grow to be a chorus of good reviews. TL;DR: The Ride is friendly, helpful, affordable, and delightful! read more

Such a nice experience, got a great bike and Sean has helped me beyond the purchase. Has come to my aid a few times!

The Ride was truly awesome--Em and Sean were super friendly and great to work with. They ordered me a gorgeous bike for a great price, even switched out some accessories for free, with a quick turnaround. When I had a problem with the bike frame, they immediately fixed it and offered excellent customer service. I highly recommend, really great little shop! read more

This place is the BEST place to get repairs or buy a bike! Sean is the nicest guy and extremely knowledgeable. Is willing to find what works best for you and your budget! HIGHLY recommend. read more

Took a friend to get her flat tires fixed! Owner is really nice and very helpful! Definitely would come back here again for any of my bike needs and recommend to others! read more

The Ride is a tiny little shop in our River Park strip mall where businesses often go ignored. Please don't ignore The Ride. I'd very much like to keep them in my neighborhood. Drop in for a visit. Sean and Em are the proprietors and they are both super friendly and eager to show you all the groovy little things in their shop. The first time you walk in, you might be a little surprised. It's small and cluttered. They sell bikes, scooters and skateboards for adults and kids, parts for all of it. They have bizarre little things called freeline skates which fit on individual feet and Sean referred to as "death skates" (he is happy to show you a youtube video of what they're capable of...minus the death). All of these things are hugging the walls and spilling out onto the floors. You can stand in the center of the shop, spin around and inspect all of it at close range - the retail space is maybe 200 sq. ft. Most of the brands aren't what you've seen. They have hand-selected what they want to sell and show and all of it is cooler and a little better than most. The best part about The Ride is their bike service. I have a 15 year old 27 speed touring bike that I love and just couldn't bear to part with but it needed quite a bit of attention. I told Sean I wanted to "oldmanify" it. I picked out used handlebars with a rise and sweep to replace my drop handlebars so I don't have to stoop over anymore. It needed new shifters, brake levers, and grips. The cassette was original from 2003, stripped and needed to be replaced. My back wheel had been the victim of at least a dozen broken spokes over the last few years which I repaired poorly. It needed more than a true, it needed some rebuilding and of course the whole thing needed a tune up. I know exactly what would have happened if I had brought it into any number of other shops in the area. I would have ended up paying an obscene amount of money that may have been better spent buying a new bike. Instead I picked up my old bike five days later (a few parts needed to be ordered) but it didn't look like an old bike. It looked brand new. I've had tune ups before but there was something about theirs that literally made my bike ride like new too. Best service ever, a bunch of new parts, basically a brand new bike for under $150. They are just off the American River Parkway and the Jed Smith bike trail which makes it a perfect location. Add the great service and groovy owners and I will continue to take all our bikes to The Ride for tune-ups and repairs, I will keep them in mind for gifts for my kids and I will keep telling all my neighbors to go there so we can keep them around. read more

So friendly!! We popped in late on a Saturday in a panic to get a tire fixed for a bike ride the next day. Sean was so helpful. He fixed the tire while we waited, treated us like he was truly interested in us and answered all our questions. I will never go to the bike shop around the corner again and be treated like they are doing us a favor. read more

Swung by the ride during their normal business hours but they were closed unfortunately. Maybe next time.

I am so happy I found this place! I've been looking for a reasonably priced, trustworthy bike shop in Sacramento for ages and was finally successful! The Ride is an excellent shop and Sean is a great guy. I will continue to support this business as long as it's here. read more

This is a great bicycle shop in River Park. Very close to Sac State and the American River Bike Trail. I got two bicycles tuned up. The work was high quality, and the price was very low. Definitely a place to visit and patronize! read more
