Lifelong Islander Brian Starr commenced a motorcycle store in Burton out of a box truck next door to his family’s vehicle keeps in 2014. Now he and his spouse, Deja, are set to release the grand commencing of a brick and mortar store on the town among Cafe Luna and Puget Sound Cooperative Credit Union this Friday.
To make it happen, he stated it took an eager feel of what he desired to do, and additionally, a bounce of faith.
“The largest issue I’ve tried to do is make this greater of a network-orientated keep, a carrier for the network,” he stated of his vicinity in Burton.
Brian has spent a big a part of his lifestyles considering how human beings travel from one vicinity to some other. He even described himself as having been “imported to Vashon hours after [his] birth.” At the auto keep, he said he commenced a small engine restore commercial enterprise inside the fourth grade to fund pursuits such as mountain cycling and go-karting.
“I grew up there running on all matters mechanical,” he said. Eventually, he laboured his manner up to vehicles as a provider consultant working for the family enterprise, but he stated he observed a real passion for motorcycles while an apprentice at the previous Big Tree Bikes in Seattle.
According to Brian, most of the people don’t account for the value of upkeep, possession and upkeep of a vehicle — they regularly assume them to work at all times and can be stuck with the aid of wonder while some thing is going incorrect.
“Ownership of an automobile is a privilege. As a society, we view it greater as proper,” he said. “Whereas with bicycles, human beings nonetheless recognize it for what it is. I still experience people view bicycles as a privilege, and that they’re usually excited to get it back while it’s working.”
As his own family turned into a growing, Brian becomes considering going back to school for an exchange of route. But he wasn’t positive it’d be the proper choice.
Enter Deja, who suggested he pursue his happiness and use the cash for college to begin Vashon Bikes.
The couple bought the field truck from Brian’s father, who had been the use of it for storage. They towed it to the property at the back of the Burton Coffee Stand and refitted the interior. Money becomes tight — there was an honest amount of highly-priced bike repair system Brian had to buy which will get the store up and jogging. Today, he runs the commercial enterprise solo, providing tune-ups, repairs and bicycle rentals for exploring the island. But Deja, who owns Vashon BodyWork, said Brian had outgrown the truck. She will retain along with her very own enterprise similarly to assisting in the new motorbike store.
“The large space will allow us to house more human beings,” she stated, noting that a wait listing for provider inside the bike store can run so long as 3 to four weeks. But to Brian’s clients, she said, it’s worth it.
“People will wait to get in, and we truly hate doing that to human beings, and so the best factor about the [new] space is we will work at the motorcycles right now and get them out.”
In the brand new space, the couple will keep offering all of their regular services to be had in Burton within the box truck, together with upkeep and bicycles sales. Also, they’ll have a network repair stand, offer instructions for both the general public and people wishing to discover ways to grow to be bicycle technicians, in addition, to preserve unique events at some stage in the yr.

 


Brian said he’s hoping to use the field truck as a satellite tv for pc area to enlarge his reach across the island for condominium bikes and for emergency restore service, but he expects that to return later.
The new bike shop in town will best be a short distance faraway from Rock Island Pub and Pizza, which Brian’s sister, Maisie, purchased with her associate in advance this year.
To Brian, the motorbike save is more than a commercial enterprise.
“We have this kind of big array of clients, and it brings them all back … When you see a person ride a bike, specifically someone who hasn’t ridden one in a long time, it quite much usually puts a smile on their face as if they had been a child.”
