On South Main Street in Canandaigua, RV&E Bike and Skate has established itself as a staple in the community. Founded by Howard Sharp in 1972, the business initially focused on snowmobiles but soon shifted its attention to bicycles, recognizing their potential for growth. Over the years, RV&E has expanded and relocated, ultimately finding a prime spot in the village where customers can enjoy views of the canal from the front windows. This location, along with another in Fairport, serves the Rochester and Finger Lakes region. RV&E takes pride in its warm and friendly reputation, offering a wide selection of bicycles from brands like Trek, Specialized, and Jamis, as well as ice and inline skates, clothing, and accessories. The store's commitment to its customers has made it the oldest owner-operated bicycle store in Rochester, with a variety of bikes and accessories available for test rides, trying on, and browsing. RV&E's service experts are also on hand to provide tune-ups, repairs, and skate sharpening, alongside rental options for recreational items like bicycles, cross-country skis, and snowshoes.
