Believe me, I've been Googling and Yelping bike shops in Broward and Dade. Soon I might visit the shop in Boca "The Racer's Edge" that Bobthib mentioned.

And I always wonder how accurate these lists are, as I know that this shop:
Active Cycles
12389 Sheridan St.
Cooper City, FL 33026
(954) 442-2238
Has been out of business for almost two years. This shop used to be in a shopping center that is less than 2 miles from my house. I used to go past it every time I went to the bank, ordered pizza from Johnny Geeze, or went to Dunkin' Donuts.

Some of the shops on that list tend to be more beach cruiser oriented, and beach boardwalk bike rental oriented.
