Brew and Cycle Shop

As many of my friends know, I love bikes. I am sitting here now watching the Tour de France, and I keep thinking about how awesome it would be to have a brewery and bike shop together as one. Once again, as was the case with my future brewery name, I can’t take credit for this idea either. My buddy from back home in Montana, Ivan, came up with the idea for a bike shop/brewery. Although I have thought about this idea before, I was not sure how to put the idea together. It’s a great idea, and I would love to take it from him and just give him free beer or something when I get going. But somehow I think, and hope, that he would want to be more involved. I handle the beer and he takes care of the bike business, although he would no doubt tell me I was doing something wrong. I should probably run this idea by him to see if he is even interested.

So big guy, are you interested?

Ah, we can figure something out eventually. Anyways the idea is still a good one, and I think it would be something a little different from the normal brewery. All of my friends and family are also giving their input into how cool a brewery could be. All of the ideas are great, but so far I think the one that will most likely evolve into the real thing will be the Bike and Brew Pub. The front will be the tap room with clear view of the fermenters and the back would be the bike shop. Like me, Ivan is a huge bike enthusiast, but more for mountain riding than my road cycling. He can manage all the bike business including developing his own bike frames. This would be a cool idea that I hope will one day come into form.
