Beth and Jim are great, they’re always there to help me with whatever I need in the shop be it new shoes or getting a wheel trued. Not to mention their weekend group rides have helped me come very far as a cyclist.

I just wanted to thank you again for the countless hours you worked to get me the proper fit for my new bike. It was frustrating for me, feeling that I was being a bother and maybe all my structural issues would never allow me to feel comfortable on my bike. You never gave up on me and more importantly, you always made me feel that my issues were valid and worth resolving. I am certain no other bike shop would have gone to the lengths that you did to get me the correct fit. Cycling is a totally different experience for me now! Pain free and enjoying a great bike. I really can’t thank you enough for your expertise and dedication to your customers.

Hi Beth, just wanted to say thank you for the amazing job you did fitting me to my bike. I went out with Christine for my first outdoor ride yesterday and it was great. I felt attached to the bike, no more shoulder or lower back strain, so much easier to ride than last year. Thank you!!!
John – Kingston
Thanks again for a great bike and service! You excel!
Margaret – Marshfield
Cycle Lodge is great! Beth’s fittings are top-notch and she finally eliminated a knee pain that had been nagging me on the bike for years, plus Jim’s wrenching has all my bikes running better than ever. More important they’re both great people, helpful and patient with everyone, newbie & pro alike. I’m thrilled that they’re here and happy to call Cycle Lodge my LBS.

Good morning on this fine Monday. I just wanted you to know that I took the Ruby out this weekend and the fit was just fabulous. The new bar made a huge difference – no pain or numbness in the hands. Beautiful. I can concentrate on getting back my endurance.
Thanks for your advice on this.
April – Duxbury
Love it! Did a nice 34 mile solo ride today and everything feels tight and great.
Thank you,
Chuck
The fitting was fascinating and really positive for me. So I went out right when I got home and did my “Mt Skirgo Short” loop which actually comes in at 10.5 miles. I was immediately aware of how much more comfortable I was. The seat position was so much better. I didn’t have to keep “jumping” to the back of the seat as I slipped off the front. My legs seemed to have more clearance to act as proper pistons. The bar height was BRILLIANT! What a difference. SO much less strain on my back, I barely felt it, I did try and keep in the “handshake” pose but I do think it’s time for some new bars with more space and maybe flatter on top.
I’m not exaggerating when I say that it felt as if I’d just been put on a brand new bike. With the new cabling which made the shifters lighting fast and the new position for my hands, my feet and legs, I was able to get more power with less effort and maintain a much higher cadence consistently. And even though I wasn’t going all out I managed to knock over a minute off my best time over that distance to 34.54 or around 18mph average which felt great! In the end though it’s not about the time, it’s more about the comfort and allowing me to continue to ride for longer!! So thank you so much for everything!
Sorry for the crazy long email! I’m just so thrilled! And really amazed at how good my legs and back feel after the ride. Not tight and sore like before. Just brilliant!
Mark – Marshfield
I just wanted to reach out to you and let you know that I really am so glad that I listened to you and Jim and upgraded to the STUMPJUMPER 29. I absolutely love it and am diggin mountain biking!!!
I did want to say thanks for all of your help in choosing the right bike! I love the fact that you sponsor rides also and have given me great advice with regards to all aspects of riding. I have learned a ton already!
Thanks for the new hobby!!
Jason – Hanover
Beth’s bike fitting is well worth the time and money. She is extremely knowledgeable, experienced and insists upon the correct fit for her customers. Beth spent three hours fitting me to my new road bike. When I rode it for the first time it felt like my body and bike were one. I’m extremely satisfied!
Heather – Plymouth
What makes Cycle Lodge different is that the love Beth and Jim have for cycling carries over into everything they do at the shop, on the road and on the trails. They never let you down and are always there to help you with advice and repairs on the road. At the shop you couldn’t ask for anyone nicer and more helpful.
Steve – Plymouth
I have been a client at Cycle Lodge for many years; purchased several bikes for my children, and myself, have had bike tune-ups, fittings, and repairs done.
While picking up my bike after a repair, I spoke with Beth (who is a certified bicycle fitter) about my Peloton that I love, but my knees bothered me after riding. She suggested she could come to my home and see if the bike was fitted properly. When Peloton delivered the bike they ‘fitted’ it to me. However, when Beth took actual measurements it was very clear the bike components were in fact ,not even close to where they should be for my body frame. Beth was able to fit the bike to me. I no longer experience knee discomfort.If you own a Peloton Bike and want the best experience with it, have Beth fit it to you! Call Beth and have a great ride!!

There is no question that if you have chosen Jim and Bet Mills to purchase a Bike, clothing or service from you have made the right choice. I have been riding and racing for 20 years and a customer of theirs for over 15 years. It’s nice to know that they really care.
It is important to Jim and Beth that you get the right fit, that you are buying a product that is proven and that it will last . Almost to a fault Jim and Beth think through every sale to insure that what you are buying is what you really need or that you are not over purchasing or buying a product that you will shortly outgrow. At the Lodge I always feel that I am getting the best bang for my buck.
Both Jim and Beth are accomplished cyclists this knowledge insures that you will get the latest technology when you are getting fit for a new bike, upgrading components purchasing safer helmets or lighter shoes. It’s great to have that trust every time you walk through the door of there shop.
Richard – Marshfield
I can’t thank you enough for all you did for me. The time you spent on various occasions to help me out, teach me, guide me and encourage me to go for it is something I will never forget.
Pam – Pembroke
The fitting you did for me last Saturday has worked out great! I feel so much better on the bike, not working nearly as hard. My pedal stroke is much smoother, and I have been practicing pushing my heel to the back of my shoe. Thanks again.
Allison – Weymouth
Thank you so much for all your hard work and effort to get me on a properly fit bike so close to my race day! I reached/accomplished my goal which was to finish my first IronMan. The bike felt great – not a single issue. Thanks again for your fantastic recommendations & service. I’m spreading the word about you to every cyclist I meet.
Mara – Duxbury
Fit process was great. Really appreciate how you took the time to explain every step throughout the session. I got a great fit and learned a lot too!
My ride yesterday afternoon was honestly the best ride I’ve had all year. We rode about 40 miles at a pace that’s a bit faster than I’ve been riding and I felt great throughout. Even when we were done, I felt I could go another hour or more. I did some stretching post ride and felt great last night and today. I’m quite amazed and I think my wife is tired of me raving about what a game changer the fit was to how I feel on the bike and post ride. Looking forward to getting many more rides in to see how I settle into the new setup and position.
Asif – Cambridge
I just wanted to send a quick note to thank you for all of your help with the purchase of my new bike! Any fears I had were immediately quelled by your attention to detail and constant reassurance that I could truly be a bike rider.
Maura – Hingham
Beth, last weeks fitting was great, I am very glad to find a BG Master Fit Technician right around the corner from me! It was to have things adjusted the way they should be and to learn a bit about myself at the same time.
The first thing that was very noticeable is that i felt much more relaxed on the bike. I felt like I was doing a lot less work even when I was in front pulling everyone else. Even my wife and friend that were there said I looked like I was not working as hard as everyone else in the field.
I found myself riding the hoods for almost the entire ride (which I do not think I did much unless I was racing). The adjustments to the seat hight have made a huge difference, especially when climbing. So thank you so much!
Bart – Kingston
I just wanted to write and say thanks again. I love my bike. Feel great after two days. Really made the ride so much more enjoyable.
Bruce – Duxbury
I have known Jim and Beth Mills for over twenty years in a variety of roles. First and foremost, they have been good friends, cycling mentors and companions for literally thousands of bicycling miles.
I have also known Jim and Beth Mills in my role as a classroom teacher and then as an Elementary School Principal in Scituate, Mass. Both Jim and Beth generously gave of her time to assist my elementary school students in a variety of cycling events. They were always patient, kind, and caring with my students and provided valuable assistance.
Lastly, I have been a customer of theirs, purchasing bicycles, cycling paraphernalia and having my bikes expertly tuned and repaired. They have ALWAYS been honest, professional, and caring in our dealings. They go out of their way to do what is in the best interest of the customer and to assure your safety, satisfaction, and riding pleasure.
Jim and Beth are going to leave this world a better place for her having been in it.
Marty – Cohasset
Words cannot describe the way I feel about you guys. Your friendship is truly special and means a lot.
You welcomed a newcomer into your biking family with open arms and always had a place for me, even if I was not an A student. You helped me develop my love for cycling and I can take that to the grave.
Dave – Norwell
Beth and Jim live, breath and eat cycling. I’ve had the pleasure of knowing them since I was a young junior racer just getting into the sport over 25 years ago. In the years since then, I have seen many people come and go from the sport but they have always remained entrenched in this small community. They work with all levels or riders from those who are looking to just “get out there” to some of the country’s top elite racers and they treat them all with the same level of respect. Not everyone has the privilege of loving what they do but Beth and Jim do and that is what sets them apart. Luckily for us, that comes through in their business and how they treat their customers every day.
Scott – Marshfield
I just wanted to send you a quick thank you for the timely turnaround of my bike last week. Jim, whatever you did worked. The bike worked great and it was as smooth and quiet as could be.
Paul – Hanover
I’d like to thank Beth for her help yesterday. I came in looking for a pair of gloves, but not really sure what I wanted. Her willingness to take the time to talk to me about them, and also let me know about other cool/cold weather gear was above and beyond what a lot of stores would have done – thank you! Your friendliness and willingness to help has earned you a new customer!
Thanks,
Rob – Duxbury
If you are looking for honest personal advice on bikes, equipment, riding, a great bike wrench or a professional bike fit you can’t do better than Jim and Beth at the Cycle Lodge in Pembroke.
Barry – Norwell
Over a year ago I decided to get back into bike riding as you recall I was way over-weight and had a bike that was undersized for me. So through some Web Searches I found Cycle Lodge and decided to take the 1st step and get fitted properly on my bike before seriously digging back into the bike riding. You did everything you could with my existing bike until I was in a financial position to purchase the right bike. Since doing business and being coached by the 2 of you I have lost over 55 Pounds and as a Type II Diabetic this past July I was able to get off the insulin injections. You have been there every step of the way from fitting’s to a new bike within my budget, training tips, training events, spinning classes, and continue to respond to emails and questions in a timely manner.
I really appreciate the business and personal relationship we have developed over the past year and consistently recommend to my fellow cyclists that they need to look no further than Cycle Lodge.
Gregory – Sagamore
The Cycle Lodge is one of the best bike shops in New England for high performance cycling. Jim and Beth are extremely knowledgeable and are one of the major supporters of cycling at all levels here in the Bay State. Not mention the most personable and helpful service among the cycling community.
