My Inspiration:
My wife inspires me. She is pretty amazing and easily the hardest worker I have ever known. She gives 100% to pretty much anything she does; she is an amazing mother and wonderful wife, all the while currently getting her PHD.
My hopes and dreams with Bicycle Face:
I want to bring all the facets of the cycling community closer. It would be wonderful if commuters, roadies, MTB’ers, Triatheletes and any other cycling groups had a place they felt they could come and enjoy the company of others with an affinity for bikes.
Words I live by:
Ride bikes, drink beer, and always cherish family and good friends!

I was born in:
Huntington, West “by-gawd” Virginia, and raised across the bridge in Ashland, Kentucky.
My inspiration is:
My grandfather. He taught me how to work with machines and the land, and how to work with what you have available.
My thoughts about BicycleFace:
A bike shop with a bar inside it... What more could I ask for?!?!?
What are my hopes for BicycleFace:
I hope to see Bicycle Face flooding the streets of Lexington with bicycles, to promote a healthy environment and lifestyle.
What I like/love about the shop:
Watching a clients eyes light up the first time they ride a bike that I helped them find, or seeing bikes that I have built while out in downtown. It is rewarding work. Catching up with clients at The Drop Bar every weekend is always fun.

Clay:
Co-Owner
“Consultant”
I was born in: Lexington, KY
My inspiration:
Personally, I am passionate about health and wellness, and I am probably a little competitive, too. I always loved to ride my bike as a kid, and rediscovered it with a passion in my late 30’s. Cycling has changed my life. I am excited to be a part of the cycling community, and I am proud to have helped develop and be a part of the Think Green cycling team. Currently, I race mountain bikes and road bikes, and I make it a point to be in the saddle nearly every day, no matter where I am.
My hopes and dreams with Bicycle Face:
To me, it is truly better to give than to receive. I want this shop to be community resource, meeting place, and a destination! Positivity, excellence and philanthropy are extremely important to me, and I hope that we are able to promote that message, along with an avid love and appreciation of all types of cycling with our bike shop!

I am excited to be a part of a progressive, forward-thinking bike shop that supports and encourages all ages, types of riding, for all types of people.

Taylor:
Service Manager
Bike & Skateboard Sales
I was born in: Mt. Sterling, KY
My inspiration:
While most kids were just learning to ride a bike, Taylor started motor cross racing at 4 years old!! He also pursued a degree in filmography, documenting daring biking and racing feats on film. He found his way into a bike shop with Jack, and there has been no going back – after several trainings, hours on the job, and certifications, he has developed into an extremely knowledgeable bicycle Technician and overall bike consultant. Bikes have always been a huge part of his life, and he has clearly excelled in competition.
My hopes and dreams with Bicycle Face:
Excited to be back in the biking scene and excited to be downtown
Words I live by:
In life, you’re along for the ride either way. You might as well make it fun!

Robert:
Bike and Skateboard Sales
Bike Service Expert
Unicycle Consultant
I was born in: Lexington, KY
My inspiration:
Bicycles have long been an important part of Robert’s life. Robert was a sponsored rider by Lexington’s Dodd’s Cycling and BMX bikes in the mid-1980’s, which led not only to his father’s eventual purchase of the bike shop but also his first job. An interesting fact about Robert is that he rode his off-road unicycle in the Mt Everest region of Nepal for 6 weeks in 1996 – pretty cool!!
Not only is he is an amazing technician and knows about everything about bikes – he is an absolute sincere gem!
Robert’s thoughts about Bicycle Face: Happy to be a part of a new paradigm and a new cultural hub and community of cyclists.

Bike Sales and Service
I was born in: Long Island, New York
My Inspiration/History:
Started riding bikes 10 years ago in 2008, when I bought an old Ross 3 speed. Soon thereafter, I got a bit more serious and purchased a 1987 Schwinn LeTour off of a buddy and put 2000 miles on it before I moved onto my first modern road bike, a Surly Pacer. Now, my go-to bike is a Surly Cross Check, because I can go anywhere on it!
Why I am part of the Bicycle Face Team:
After working with Jack and Taylor at Pedal the Planet, I decided to go back to school. I was working at a paint shop, during the interim. After coming into Bicycle Face and with some prodding from my wife, Kamila, I decided to get back into the bicycle business. It’s been a great choice!!
