Make bike shops better:

This project aims to provide signs with qr codes to bike shops that will empowers customers to ask bike mechanics better questions. The mechanics know a lot about biking information are usually passionate about their trade; But often it is hard for the mechanics to get the customers to ask the right questions. Hopefully project will help customers to get excited about buying a bike and ask the right questions to get the best bike for them. From that point on the project will serve as a resource to help them on the learning journey to progress to different biking levels.

  1. buying a bike
  2. learning about biking through videos
  3. find cool biking trails, bike riding groups, bike shops, and coffee shops.
  4. hot topic for this week at the bike shop.
  5. lists of links that I and other people like.

Thinking out features below: (dev notes)

Should have a few experiences/pages

  1. Selling a bike with the tile format - (for now adapting google tile favella experience) can be found here by clicking tile icon in bottom left https://beyondthemap.withgoogle.com/en-us/beyond-the-map/rio
  2. youtube how to's
- clean bike - spin to win vs grinding - bike fits - mountain biking - road racing 
- road groups - mtb groups - your next bike upgrade - clean your bike! - send me videos(contact us)
  1. lets get social, share your experiences as you have them
    a. throw up ephemeral pictures to be voted on.
    b. cool places you have been "this is a cool place" - example Naples, FL has a cool bike bar with coffee beers.

Each of these are wep pages on their own, they could be served at random or navigated between.

They also can be printed out with a print page!

Turned into a banner. And put as a booth in the store. 🔥

This will help you sell bikes.

This will help you gain trust with shoppers.

Jacksonville bikers will have cool tech.

  1. What discussion is hot at the bike shop ?

  2. A final page:
    sign up for the michael charity page. I like to buy people in my area random cool gadgets like tirewiz tire pressure monitors. click yes, for a chance for me to buy you something I have been buying for myself lately.

    I have run out of things to upgrade for myself so now I buy other people upgrades. usually in the 100 dollar range.
    a. tire wiz
    b. apple air tag + 3d printed bottle mount.
    c. cycling computer
    d. garmin power meter pedals
    e. garmin radar light.
    f. go pro hero 7
    g. Skydio 2 sports drone
    f. random thing that pops into my head.

    It might be fun to get people things that make sense as a next upgrade.
    Do you have a computer that can handle video rendering, then gopro or skydio seems a good next step

    want to join in on the random charity page?
    I offer full transparency
    and no favoritism. (I wont even know who my friends are)

  3. My favotite sites and sources of information a. dcrainmaker site for any tech research - that guy is awesome.
    b. gcn is a fun channel on youtube.
    c. strava, you should be on it if you are not. Enable Flyby's and add privacy zones!
