About Gerken’s
Gerken’s opened in 2008, and has been constantly growing with the support of the surrounding neighborhood and New Orleans at large.
Everyone who works at the shop is an everyday cyclist. Many of us have worked bicycle delivery jobs, volunteered at community bike shops in New Orleans and elsewhere, and have worked at various shops in town and elsewhere.

Just came from Gerken’s Bike Shop, and I’m riding so smooth I have A Tribe Called Quest’s “Butter” in my head.
