We’re partnering up with an amazing neighborhood bike shop, BFF Bikes. Come join us as we ride down the West Side and jam up Damen. See you at BFF Bikes (2056 N Damen) on Wednesday, August 10th at 5:30pm. It’s time for a #bikegridnow. All wheels welcome!
About BFF bikes
BFF Bikes was founded by two women, Vanessa and Annie who recognized the need for a strong supportive and encouraging environment for female cyclists regardless of ability. BFF was created to encourage more women to join the cycling movement that our city, state and country is embracing. While remaining a women-focused bike shop, their reputation for being friendly and approachable contributed to its success.
In the fall of 2020, Gillian took the helm as owner of BFF. Gillian has a passion for all things bike whether it be racing, touring, commuting, leisure, hauling groceries, dirt, road…you get the point. ‘In addition to providing top notch repair service, it is our mission to make sure customers (whether 2 or 102) walk away with the right bike for them.
BFF strives to be the kindest and most approachable shop in Chicago. We really really love bikes, and we know you will too.
Gillian Forsyth, Owner
