Golden Saddle Cyclery in Los Angeles is a small shop with big reach. We interview Kyle B. Kelley, shop owner and Radavist contributor, about what it takes for a bike shop to survive these days, bike shops he looks up to, the fat tire road bike trend, his favorite bourbons and portrait photography.
This episode is also supported by Ramble Ride, a unique semi-supported bikepacking experience. Learn more here: www.ramblerides.com
"Getting people off race bikes that aren't racing." After many years of primarily being a racer, a fat tire road bike completely changed my relationship to bicycles and made riding fun again, like when I was a kid. Another great podcast.
Thanks for listening!
Kyle and his compadres live up to the statements. I went in to GSC on a suggestion from my friends in Colorado Springs, I was moving back to LA. I rode there and felt welcomed. I really love this shop. I did a coffee ride and further embedded my love for them. Sadly they are closing. A true jewel will be lost. I hope he opens the bicycle pizza place! All the love for Golden Saddle and PLP! I almost always buy from LBS first. ❤🚲
Kyle speaks so many truths; as a bike-shop owner himself it's refreshing to hear his take on disappearing bike-shops when every other owner is just mourning the internet.
Should I every come to LA I will definitely visit GSC!
Cheers from Germany!
LOL, at about 13:00, Kyle auditions for the SNL skit "The Californians"
Whudda yew dewin' heere, Russ? Juss lookin at tires, Kaahyl. These are pritty supple.
That duzzn't look lahyk Chardonnay, Russ. Where'd yew get that? Kintuckee?!? Is that near Malibu?
Parrk in Azuuuusa, climb up the thurrrty noiine, go west on the tewwww and take it all the way to Glendaayyle where you belong!
"how do you keep the kindling of caring alive?" Best question ever Russ!
great interview thank you
This Kyle guy is a level headed guy- good info - peaceful chat...
I'm totally binging on PLP today instead of working. Awesome interview and great to hear Kyle's view on running a bike shop and the philosophy involved in building a great sense of community. These are the exact sort of places we should all be supporting with our $. Looking to buy my first fat tire road bike soon so will make the trip up from OC to Golden Saddle to have them help me out. Seems like a great shop and my kind of people.
Good folks. Tell him hi from us!
GSC are the best
Great job keeping this going. He wasn't the most talkative but had some great stuff to say.
Mpls represents the all around bike. Long live All City bikes !!!!
Aw yeah
Any pointers to resources that can be used to find gravel (non-paved) routes? Sites like gravelmap.com are great but still pretty sparse. Thus the question: how to find out what is private versus public so I can plan a route?
Which part of the country are you looking at?
wondering the same thing.
Path Less Pedaled Mainly Northern California (Bay Area) but Oregon as well.
I’d start with RidewithGPS. ESP their Ambassador routes. Near PDX, look up Out Mother the Mountain.
Funny how golden saddle cycle became the new ORange 20 after it closed down miss orange 20 but golden saddle is dope
Now Golden Saddles is closing
I'm from Cleveland, Ohio and road bike riding ain't going no where.....
