Welcome to Mount Vernon Triangle!

BicycleSPACE Now Open

BicycleSPACE, a new bike shop located at 459 I Street, NW, is now open in Mount Vernon Triangle! Erik Kugler, a 15-year bicycle retail veteran, and Philip Koopman, a long-time bicycle commuter and shop owner, have partnered to bring their vision of the ideal urban-core bicycle shop to reality. They are recasting a 4,000 square foot auto repair garage into a full-service bike shop.

Walking – or wheeling – into the shop, customers will find a wide range of eye-catching bicycles, parts, and accessories. And, patrons will be greeted by a knowledgeable staff keen on getting people excited to ride and more often. Full-time mechanics on-site will offer their expert advice and technical skills to make repairs too

BicycleSPACE will host a full calendar of events including group rides that cater to all skill levels, a wide array of classes and clinics, movie screenings, and much more. The store will offer a full spectrum of bikes as well as a complete line of bicycling accessories and apparel with a state-of-the-art service department.
