From Proteus Bicycles & Brews
Happy Holidays to you from all of us a Proteus Bicycles & Brews.
We thank you for your support and patience during this very eventful year!
2020 was full of surprises!
  1. January was relatively uneventful. Lots of folks attended our annual New Year's Day ride to Lake Artemesia and Franklin's for a toast to 2020. Little did we know then what 2020 had in store...
  2. In February we kept on socializing and riding, but there was news of a far away growing virus thingy that morphed into
  3. A full fledged pandemic in March. We stopped our group rides and pot lucks. Deemed an essential business we
  4. Stayed open (doors closed) every day in April and wore masks. Bike sales increased
  5. so that by end of May we'd sold more bikes than we did in all of 2018
  6. We started closing on Mondays in June so we could finish Proteus Brews and have enough staff to cover our busiest days (all of the days)
  7. By July Paul warned that we would run out of bikes so we ordered lots
  8. And by the end of August we were pretty much out of hybrids and mountain bikes but
  9. in September we were finished with the buildout and passed all of our inspections to
  10. Open Proteus Brews in October, our cozy new coffee shop inside Proteus Bicycles where the most popular drink is Proteus Chai and all the service is curbside. With that project completed,
  11. In November, we did a "refresh" of the store, which no one can see because
  12. In December it's still curbside service because - COVID!

But we count our lucky stars everyday that our business is doing well, we have amazing customers, and our staff is healthy!
We're looking forward with hope to 2021!
Holiday Hours

New Year's Day: Closed
We're back open regular hours Jan 2, 2021
Service Department Open!
We are ready to take standard tune-ups and other check in service! Give us a call or just stop by with your bike for an evaluation. We are taking all service on a first-come-first-served basis. Service customers are asked to queue up curbside. As the weather gets colder, we'll bring your bike inside and have you wait in your car (when possible). Please note that while we are as well stocked as we can be, there are some parts that just aren't available due to the pandemic. We appreciate your patience!
Covid Policies
We continue to limit the number of customers in store. All service and parts requests are done curbside. In store shopping is very limited to just a 1-2 folks at a time. It's best to give us a call to schedule a shopping appointment if you can. Drop ins are welcome, space permitting. Masks are required.
We appreciate your support in this difficult time! We wish you a very happy and hopeful 2021! We look forward to seeing you in the New Year.

Please call 301-441-2928 or email laurie@proteusbicycles.com with any questions or feedback.

Be well,
