Chad Jensen won’t see much need for bicycle repairs when the Register’s Annual Great Bicycle Ride Across Iowa rolls into town July 31.
Cyclists will be headed home, he said Tuesday, not preparing for more bike miles.
But Jensen will have his shop – The Bicycle Station and Jensen Oil – open on Main Avenue to sell merchandise such as T-shirts and koozies.
The street between Jensen’s business and neighboring Lyons Tap will become a giant beer garden, Jensen said.

RAGBRAI will enter Clinton from the west on Iowa 136 and pass in front of Jensen’s Oil and neighboring Lyons Tap on Main Avenue.
“I don’t really expect any service business,” said Jenson, but he’ll try to sell some merchandise. “It’s just going to be a lot of fun,” Jensen said.
