Shop Owner, Barry Misener started Bicycles Plus back in 1993 and his passion for the sport and business still burns deeply. He has a love for the road side of cycling with a history of triathlon in his earlier days. The bike of the year for 2009 will be the TCR Advanced 1. Full carbon Advanced frame with Ultegra components. At the selling price, it's a steal. Barry also enjoys running in the off season and spending time with his family when his work schedule is not consuming him. Favorite food is pizza, and his post ride refreshment, Garrison IPA. Is there really anything else?

Jeanne has been one of the top female cyclists in the Maritimes for the past four years and just a wonderful person to have around helping us out for 2009.

Besides biking, Jeanne can be found hiking, XC skiing and snow shoeing, sometimes with her dog. When asked about how save the planet, Jeanne says we have to encourage healthy lifestyles by assisting folks to do as much as they are capable of. Her pick of the year? Definitely the TCR Alliance W. The best part of working at the Bikes Plus? You get to be around the bling.

Dave Murphy is a guy with a natural mechanical mind. Continuing to study engineering at Dal next year, Dave enjoys figuring out how things work and making them work better. Daves' pick for 09 is the TCR Advanced 1, great minds think alike Dave.. After a tortuous ride, Dave enjoys chicken and pasta apres ride and washes down with Rickards white. Great bike taste, beer taste, debatable?? Dave enjoys running, hiking and camping besides riding his bike. Bicycles Plus is a good place to work because it's close to home and my co workers are just simply the best to work with.
