Martin's Bicycle in Dundee has earned consecutive Silver awards for Best Bicycle Shop in 2024 and 2025, and its Route 14A location puts it right in the heart of the Finger Lakes cycling corridor between Seneca and Keuka Lakes. This is a shop that serves a cycling community defined by rolling vineyard roads, steep lake bluffs, and the kind of terrain that rewards a properly fitted bike.
The shop handles sales, service, and repairs with the kind of personal attention that only a locally owned operation can provide. Martin's caters to the full spectrum — road cyclists training on the Seneca Lake loop, mountain bikers hitting the trails in the surrounding state forests, and casual riders looking for a reliable commuter. The mechanical expertise is the real differentiator; these are technicians who know how to tune a bike for the specific demands of Finger Lakes riding, where a single route can include flat lake roads, punishing climbs, and unpaved stretches.
Dundee sits in the rolling hills between Watkins Glen and Penn Yan, and Martin's Bicycle benefits from being the go-to shop for a wide swath of the southern Finger Lakes. For touring cyclists passing through the region, it is the kind of unexpected find that can rescue a trip — a fully equipped shop in a small town where you might not expect one, staffed by people who genuinely care about keeping you on the road.
