“Right now, I'm always working.”
— Sam Markovich, owner of Peloton Cyclery in St. Charles, Missouri, talking about the unfortunate result of bicycle lovers who open a shop.
Markovich tells a St. Louis area newspaper that he used to log 4,000 miles a year on his bicycle. Now his bicycling is pretty much limited to a Monday night group ride around St. Charles County.
He worked in high-end, service-oriented bike shops in St. Louis and Colorado before he opened his own two years ago at 3139 W. Clay, in St. Charles. He wants to focus making his shop similar to those where he worked.
Here's to Markovich for chasing his dream and hoping he gets a chance to put more miles on his bike in the future.
