About Us

Alex Williams & Ben Schlosser - Owners

She came in for a bike tune; he’d been running the shop for years—and somewhere between tire checks and trail talk, sparks flew.

He’s spent a decade owning Cartecay Bike and Brewery and a lifetime wrenching, now splitting his days between dialing in mountain bikes and brewing the house favorites at the Southeast’s only bike shop with an in-house brewery.

She ditched the corporate grind for dirt, roots, and ridge lines, turning her “weekend warrior” habit into a full-time life on two wheels.

Together, they keep the taps cold, the bikes fast, and the vibe friendly—proving the best rides end where the beer is brewed just a few feet from the work stand.

Check out our current brews.

TJ McArthur - Chief Mechanic & Human Resources Officer

TJ does it all—mountain biking, paddling, rock climbing, and he’s even been a touring musician with a killer karaoke voice.

In the shop, he’s the go-to wrench, handling everything from quick checkups to full overhauls so your bike rides at its peak.

When he’s not turning bolts, you’ll find him on the local trails testing gear, chasing new tech, and helping riders pick the right upgrades, stay on budget, and find their next favorite route.

Adam DeBerardinis - Chief Morale Officer & Part-Time Mechanic

Meet our resident good-vibes specialist. When he’s not wrenching on bikes, he’s out shredding the trails and coming back with stories and a huge grin. He’s the part-time mechanic who’s somehow full-time stoked—always ready with a high-five, an encouraging word, and a quick fix to get you rolling again. Whether you’re dialing in your first trail bike or tuning up for a big ride, he’ll hype you up, dial your ride, and send you out the door ready to rip.

Sky Schlosser - Ride Leader and Chaos Coordinator

He’s the guy who makes every ride feel like you already belong there. As Ride Leader and Chaos Coordinator, he keeps the pace friendly, the routes fun, and the vibes zero-intimidation. From first-timers to trail addicts, he’s the one checking in, keeping it lite, and making sure everyone rolls out—and rolls back—in their comfort zone and grinning.
