Foo - Need the creative help of FOO!

I am in the process of taking over a bike rental business and expanding it into a full bike shop. I need help coming up with a good name.

Background: Shop is in Canal Fulton Ohio. 20 ft from the stark county bike trail, and 100 ft from the Ohio and Erie Canal Towpath trail. Will be initially rental, repair, used bikes, and refreshments.

Link for the Canoe Livery with details of the rentals (2nd pic on the right is my building).:

It would also be cool if the name could include "Draisine" or a reference to "Baron Karl Christian Ludwig Drais von Sauerbronn" as I am a direct decendent.

So foo lets see what ya got!

Baron Karl Christian Ludwig Drais von Sauerbronn's 2nd Cousins Bike Shop and Rental Emporium, home of the Draisine Smoothie, just one sip and you will say "Hey, I never knew Draisine could taste this good!"

Towpath Bike Shop...It's easier to remember. :twitchy:

Towpath bikes already exists, other side of town, nowhere near the towpath!

No Name City
Spinning Wheels
Knobby Palace
Slick Place
Gear Head Manor

Canalside Bike Rental
Canalside Bike Shop
Fulton Bike Rental / Shop

Adding Baron von Lichtenstein will only confuse the public and make you look amateur, sorry. :P

Gears and Grinds

Offer coffee, refreshments, and repairs, among bike sales.

Call it "The Porn Shop". I know I would walk in to your shop if you called it that.

Maybe you could combine Laufmachine and Canal.

Sauerbronn Bicycle Emporium

"The Baron's Bikes"

Hang a red tricycle off the front, looking like it's flying, maybe throw a Snoopy doll on it.

I still favor place names for small shops.

You really should show a little more taste than that I think, it being a quaint little town. Perhaps "Titties and Gears".

Pcad's HTFU Emporium

I have no taste or class my friend.

heh - here (in Pittsford, NY) there is a Towpath Bicycle shop - on the Erie canal, by the bike path.

My suggestion:
Baron Karl Christian Ludwig Drais von Sauerbronn's 2nd Cousins Bike Shop and Rental Emporium, home of the Draisine Smoothie, just one sip and you will say "Hey, I never knew Draisine could taste this good!"

You will be a millionaire.

half bent's huffy hawking hut!

You know you're a bike geek when you know what a Draisine is, Bike shop.

Sorry jsharr, a spin on yours but I can't get the "reply with quote" to work on your posts...

Canal Cycling


or even shorter and simpler.

"Canal Cycle"

I'm a big fan of simplicity.

I was just reading a bit about your town. Are you located in the old village of Milan?
If so you could call it "Milan Cycle", and everyone likes Italian bikes right?

Pedal Canal

Draisine Kickstand Cyclery.

Guad Canal, but you might have to get RyanF to endorse your shop.
