Shore Brake Cyclery received the America’s Best Bike Shop award this month from the National Bike Dealers Association. The Brant Beach shop is one of only two in New Jersey to earn the distinction this year, which is based on an application and secret shopper process, the owners said.

“It’s a true honor to be recognized as one of the top local bicycle retailers in the United States,” said Charlie Kulp, Shore Brake Cyclery owner.
