Joel - Owner / Vintage MTB Geek
Joel's passion for bikes started in college, when he would bomb around the streets of Missoula, on an old Schwinn Continental. From there it was off to Baton Rouge to work at Capitol Cyclery as a mechanic, it was during this time that his passion for working on bikes exploded. After moving back to Minnesota and working as a mechanic at a few different shops, Joel finally made his dream come true and launched Gringineer Cycles in the winter of 2017 and expanded on that dream with the opening of Carver County Cycles in the spring of 2021. Gringineer Cycles is still going strong today as the online side of our bike business.
