Here in Seattle we have one reknowned mobile bike clinic known as The Bicycle Doctor (http://www.bicycledoctor.com/). The guy basically works out of his huge (catering-style) van. Have any of you encountered similar services where you are?

We have a big van that pulls into the parking lot for the Waterton Canyon trailhead, and extremely popular biking area in the SE Denver area.

Seems to get a fair amount of business on the weekends. There are generally 2-300 cars parked there, 90% bikers.

Dnvrfox, I saw the same van in the parking lot when we rode up Waterton on July 6th. It was the first time I had seen him there although maybe the other times I just didn't notice. To my amazement the same van and a partner van followed us for the week during BTC. I had them give my bike a quick check over. They seem extremely knowledgeable and friendly. I would definitely recommend them.

The van was there last year also. New this year are rental bikes and the refreshment stand!!
