Great location for a bicyle rental shop. This shop is located in the heart of Duluth, Minnesota's Canal Park area. Canal Park is a tourist haven of upscale hotels, restaurants, shopping, sight seeing, the Aerial Lift Bridge, Great Lakes shipping traffic viewing area, Lake Superior and more. Located just outside the door of the bicylce rental shop is the 3 mile long Lakewalk, which is a boardwalk and paved bike trail that follows the shoreline of Lake Superior. You couldn't find a more scenic route or a more biker friendly trail.
The Wheel Fun shop offers a variety or bikes for everyone, regular bicycles, mountain bikes, three and four wheeled coupes, surreys with the fringe on top in 2 or 4 person models and more.
I was in Duluth last week and rented a three wheeled, recumbent style coupe bike and biked the Lakewalk while getting waymarks. It was so fun.
The shop is located in a former Great Lakes ship cap, the George Hindman. Formerly a gift shop and now a bicycle rental shop, it is sure to do a brisk business.
