Bikeforce Geraldton
We also review bicycle shops, especially if they are of vital importance to bicycle tourists. Have you just ridden down from the north of Western Australia and broken 6 spokes or split your rear rim? If you have just ridden directly down the highway to Geraldton from the North West, then this shop could be of vital importance to you. Also if you are heading north, then this is the last major bicycle shop for a very long time.

I found this bicycle shop had a very large range of bikes and equipment with lots of great stuff and I found things easy to find and I even saw some old retro stuff hanging around like steel rims. They had a very large number of bicycles as well to suit all ages.

Getting to this shop is very easy and they have plenty of parking down the side of the shop to get you off of the main road, especially if you are on your touring bike, or even if you have to bring your bicycle in by car.
The owners of the shop were great and very helpful even when I was tryng to find a back wheel to put on the thing, next to the other bit beside the other thing, they knew exactly what I was talking about.
After dreaming in their shop for sometime, I had to find something to write an article about that was different, so I found a car bicycle rack, but that is another story...
I rated this shop 8/10. It's an excellent resource located in a very good location for the biycle tourist who needs parts when heading north, or having just ridden down from the north.
