pinellas trail bike shop

Pinellas Trail Bicycle Rental and Repair

Long Description:
A great place to rent bikes or take them in for repair. The owner/manager was very helpful and the prices were resonable. The shop is right on the Pinellas Trail in Dunedin, Florida. The Pinellas Trail goes for 35 miles from South St. Petersburg up to Tarpon Springs. It was formally railroad tracks that have been converted to the Pinellas trail which is good for walking, skating, jogging and biking. Motorized vehicles are not allowed and it has overpasses that span most of the major highways. The "Penny for Pinellas" paid for the funding to create this trail and in my opinion is the best thing that they ever did here. The only drawback is that it is not lighted and is closed at night officially, but some still use it. But the police do patrol it from time to time as well. They do have volunteer rangers during the day to watch over the users. Unfortunately I live in Manatee County and only come over to visit, so I don't get to ride as much as I used to. Have fun and be safe.
