For eleven years, the garage of the Donohue home was the location of the

DONOHUE BICYCLE SERVICE,

but effective 12/24/02, after attaining the age of seventy, I have retired.

There are two good bike shops serving my trade area:

In Shenandoah, Kirby’s Sales & Service (712) 246-4204

To the east, Connecticut Yankee Pedaller (yes, that’s the way it’s spelled) in Chariton

I’d like to thank all of my loyal customers for your patronage the eleven years that I operated Donohue Bicycle Service. I’ll miss your visits to the shop.

I plan to continue my Internet mirror sales on behalf of the Nishna Productions Sheltered Workshop.

I accept orders for the Safety Sport Mirror directly over the Internet.

This was a great ride in 2005—a comfortable, cloudy day with a little wind after driving to Lenox in light rain. Watch this site for next year’s date and registration form.
