    If you are just starting your journey into the outdoor world or have become a lover of it; this is the place for you. A winter coat, hiking boots, backpackers tent, or gear to trek anywhere between ocen and mountain peak. . They have it.

    Got my bike tuned up here 2 months ago. Took it out for a ride for the first time afterwards and my pedal started to fall off since it was lose. Kept riding with it and destroyed the threads :( Called REI up to see if they could help me, explaining the situation. They told me that the pedal wasn’t touched during the tune up. Hard to believe that a bike I’ve ridden hundreds of times only has a loose pedal after a tune up 🤨

    I drove from Rome City, Indiana to get here. That's about 2hrs 10 minutes. I brought all of the gear that intend to carry on an end-to-end hike, and back on the Sheltowee Trace. About a 750 mile walk with a 40lb+ pack. Even though I had purchased none of the gear I brought at REI, they unpacked my load and repacked it properly. Then they showed me how to properly adjust the Big Agnes 63L Parkview pack that I bought elsewhere to fit me perfectly. I was ready to spend $400 or more to get a pack that worked. In short REI ROCKS!

    Brought in some bikes to get checked out for safety. They were donated for use at the group home where I work. Scott in the bike shop looked at the bikes right away and told me about the things that needed to be fixed for safe riding but didn't try to upsell me on a service we didnt need for lightly used leisure bikes. He was efficient and friendly.
