Performance Bicycle Opens in Winter Park

Performance Bicycles in Winter Park
Performance Bicycle has opened a new store in Winter Park at 351 North Orlando Avenue (highway 17/92), just across the street from Chaimberlins.   I visited the store this week, and it is quite large.  The friendly and helpful staff were patient while I browsed the merchandise and the store was busy selling a customer a new mountain bike and with assembling new bicycles in the fully stocked maintenance shop.   The parking lot has plenty of shade, and you can bicycle in the neighborhood behind the store to test drive bikes.
Kenneth is the new store manager with plenty of passion for bicycling.   The Grand Opening of the new store is this weekend, Friday - Sunday May 5-7.  $20 gift cards are available to those waiting in line before the store opens at 9 AM Friday, Saturday, and on Sunday.  Watch your mail for a store flyer with a 15% off coupon.
Winter Park is one of 5 new Florida locations for Performance.  They have stores open in Boca Raton, Ft. Lauderdale, and Tampa.  A Jacksonville store opens soon.
Since moving to Colorado in 1993, I have been shopping for bicycles and parts at Performance Bicycle stores along the front range.  I liked their parts, learned about their stock, and could always find what I was looking for, usually at a price below what the local bicycle stores sold the same part for.  I am glad to see them in the Florida market.
