    We took e-bikes for a ride today on the greenways through GOKY. Very fun! Alex was so nice and knowledgeable about the area. Highly recommend this activity while in Berea!

    Outstanding service experience. Transamerica cyclists caught in a bind. Broke a chain in Buckhorn, KY and Alex from @getoutsideky set me up with a new one and got us back on the road.

    Great place!! Such friendly and helpful people. We had purchased both our boys ebikes, and within a couple of days, had tire trouble. We took them up to the guys of Get Outdoors Ky, and they got them fixed right up. Super affordable and great turnaround time! Thankful to have a place like this so convenient to town.

    We first came to GOKY in 2023, that experience brought us back! The staff is wonderful and informative. My family vacations in Berea, and this is a staple. Both years we have done E-bikes, my mom and I went back the next day for another ride this year. Fair priced, nice people, and a great experience all the way around. I highly recommend checking them out.
