ABOUT US

AT TREV’S BIKE SHED:

We bring superb bicycle maintenance and repair services to the doorstep of Blue Water Area residents through flexible scheduling and lifelong expertise.  All for the well-being of our clients.

TREV’S STORY

Trev’s Mobile Bike Shed began as Trev’s Bike Shed behind my childhood home in Memphis, MI, when I was 12. I started fixing abandoned bicycles, teaching myself the mechanics without worrying about making mistakes.

 

As I got better, I began offering my services to the community. My Grandpa saw my passion and gave me a bike repair stand, which helped me refine my skills. A local newspaper featured me, and soon my story was picked up by others, including the Chicago Tribune. I became known as the "Bike Boy," a title I embraced.

​ 

After high school, I worked as a mechanic at a local bike shop while attending Macomb County Community College. I earned certification as an Olympic Level Race Mechanic at the USA Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs, CO. When I was laid off in the fall, I worked as a Deckhand on a Pilot Boat in Port Huron, which led me to pursue a career in the Merchant Marine. I attended the Great Lakes Maritime Academy and worked at McLain Cycle to help pay for my education.​

 

After graduating, I began working as a Sailor on Great Lakes freighters, eventually becoming a First Mate. While I felt proud of my maritime career, I still felt drawn to bicycles. While sailing, I developed a business plan for my mobile bike repair shop. In the fall of 2023, I spoke with my Grandpa for the last time before he passed away. He encouraged me to “Go for it!” With that, I left the ships in spring 2024 and launched Trev’s Mobile Bike Shed, using the same repair stand he gave me nearly 20 years ago.
