Bike Loading Tip
Click on photo to enlarge
Always put the heaviest bike closest to the vehicle, and the lightest bikes furthest away from the vehicle.
Torque=force*distance.
To minimize this, put  the heaviest bikes on the inside.

BikeWorld Gift Certificates

Finding the perfect gift can be tough. That's why we offer gift certificates. They make terrific presents, and are a great way to tell someone "thanks."
 

Real Bikes Are Not Toys
You wouldn't play golf with inferior equipment, expect to play your best tennis with a racket you picked at a "Mart," up or fish with a rod designed as a toy. Don't expect a bike from a toy store to provide the performance or pleasure of a real bicycle. Treat yourself to a machine that's designed to work properly.

Our Risk-Free Promise

If, for any reason, you don't love your BikeWorld purchase, bring it back within 30 days. We will refit it, adjust it, exchange it, exchange  components or give you your money back.

We Value Your Opinion
We're always open for suggestions and ideas on how we can be the best bike store possible. Please share your ideas. Unless
it's too goofy we'll try it, otherwise, we'll enjoy laughing at it.

  Bikes on Broadway
 
coming again & again!..

Our August 10th event was a huge success!!

Here's a Power Point of
the highlights.

Paducah's  Broadway was closed to cars for seventeen blocks.

Over forty friendly volunteers staffed each intersection. Drivers were not allowed to turn onto Broadway, but were permitted to go straight across the busier intersections when directed by the volunteers.
Hundreds of people of all ages hopped on their bikes and cruised the almost two mile strip of closed off street.  The riders
(and walkers and runners and stroller pushers) are exuberant in their praise of city officials for allowing such an event and for the workers who gave up their afternoon to work the barricades.
Our thanks to everyone who
helped in this effort.  Please continue to help push Paducah forward to become a place where we love to ride! Call the store to  volunteer for an upcoming "Bikes on Broadway!"

Greenway Trail Receives Money for Final Phase
On August 20, 2008 Governor Beshear  presented Mayor Paxton with a $500,000 grant to fund the final phase of Paducah's Greenway Trail!!
When complete the trail will
go from the riverfront at the foot of Broadway, through Noble Park to County Park Road, by way of Stuart Nelson Park.  We have the money-we must ensure city leaders make the construction, and completion a major priority!!

SINGING A NEW SONG! -
For twelve years the Paducah Greenway Trail construction has progressed at approximately death march speed.  It’s no secret that I’ve become fairly frustrated and generally cynical about the whole project.  No more! I’m a believer!!
        Hutch and I have ridden the completed section and Oh My Gosh!!  To say this phase of the trail is beautiful doesn’t do it justice.  Paducah Parks has produced a jewel!! (Be prepared, due to Wetland Rules, it’s not paved.  It’s like the surface at Tunnel Hill.)
      No matter-it’s a delight!  You’ll have to try it to believe it. Take off from work early, grab the kids and neighbors and head to Noble Park, behind the Skatepark!  
Greenway Trail Phase One is open!
