Mpls Bike Shop/Coffee Shops


In the last few weeks a SECOND bike shop/coffee shop opened in Minneapolis and this is a good thing.
A number of years ago Gene O and Jennifer opened One On One in the warehouse district. A longtime favorite work escape for me. Great vibe and art too. They just took down the second season of Tour photos by Caroline Yang. Super nice stuff.
And now Hurl has his own hefty hideout, CRC Coffee Bar/Cykel Garage in Uptown to go along with his regular mischief. No formal sign out front yet, but those in the know have had no problem keeping his register ringing. Stop by and give him or brose the business. I figure I have about two solid years of reading to do from his venerable selection of literature. A little piece of heaven, coffee, food, bikes and zines. All those Rivendale Readers are going to take me a month at least. Sign me up. Good luck Hurl, but you won't need it with a location like that.
They both got some decent press from across the river. Evidently the Strib is asleep at the switch.
