The Broken Spoke is a full service (rental, retail and repair) bike shop in the heart of downtown Port Townsend, on the Olympic Peninsula of Washington, USA.  We opened in late December of 2009.  The Broken Spoke was created to make Port Townsend the kind of bicycling community in which we all dream, for our locals and visitors.  We want to promote cycling at all levels and make cycling something that brings us all together.

We are looking forward to helping you with all your cycling needs!  Pedal in and let us know how we can be of service.

Here at The Broken Spoke we pride ourselves with having quality and reliable service. Our staff members include Pete, Jacob, Joe, Sarah, Nate and Nicole.



Pete:  Pete has been biking since he could walk. He is an active mountain, road, cyclo-cross, downhill, street and touring cyclist. Pete is a member of our local groups: Port Townsend Bicycle Association, Quimper Trails Association, Jefferson Trails Coalition, the Port Townsend's Non-Motorized Transportation Board and our nationwide groups: International Mountain Bicycle Association. Pete would love to see you out on the bike of your choice! Stop in and tell him what you're passionate about!





Nate:  He has loved exploring, maintaining and riding all of the local trails and is usually out mountain biking with his dog Yellow. Nate has more than ten years experience working at bike shops as a mechanic. Nate looks forward to working on your bike and hearing your cycling stories.



Jacob: Mechanic.  Jacob is a fun and adventurous person. He has been traveling around the states and working various bike related jobs for the better part of a decade. He has a degree in recreation and tourism, minor in adventure tourism, and UBI certified technician and wheel builder. Jacob likes to get dirty and fix any problem he runs in to. He is easy going, creative, and likes to tell bad jokes.




Joe: Mechanic.  Joe is a biking fanatic! Primarily racing downhill and exploring on his all mountain bike, Joe enjoys anything with two wheels. After receiving his certification from UBI Joe joined the Broken Spoke in July 2011. He is looking forward to exploring and expanding local trails. Come down and go for a ride with Joe.




Nicole: Event Coordinator, Women's MTB ride leader... and so much more.  Nicole moved to Port Townsend in April of 2009. She's been an active community member since. She is involved in the Port Townsend Bicycle Association, Jefferson Trails Coalition (Peninsula Trails Coalition that cool group involved in the Olympic Discovery Trail and the Larry Scott Trail!), and Quimper Trails Association. She's been leading monthly women's rides since the spring of 2011 and hopes they continue indefinitely. She is a League of American Bicyclist certified Instructor (LCI) and has been volunteering with the Jefferson County Parks and Rec Department, YMCA and Blue Heron Middle School to teach "bicycle safety and adventures!" since the summer of 2011. She loves biking and would love to share it with you... beginner, intermediate or advanced.

 

 

Sarah: Sales, Event Coordinator.  Sarah is an outdoor enthusiast and has traveled throughout the country. Her degree is in business marketing, which she loves applying to any and all outdoor gear. She recently moved from Wisconsin to Port Townsend and has loved exploring the beautiful mountain trails of the Olympic Peninsula. Although rock and ice climbing are her forte, mountain biking is quickly becoming a new passion.
