Why locals love it

In an automobile-obsessed nation, Boulderites advocate a green revolution; a revolution of bike wheels, that is. It's easy to spot local yuppies donning super-hero-esque spandex racing garb, and Green Guru cleverly caters to this faction by crafting designer goods from recycled bicycle parts.

Why you should visit it

Green Guru upcycles old inner tubes into durable bags, wallets and more, detailed with thoughtful accents like valve zippers and seatbelt shoulder straps. Not only does this process reuse what would otherwise be waste, the results creatively optimize the features of the materials. For instance, rubber inner tubes make the bags lightly waterproofed.

Special tip

Driving here would be something of a contradiction. Find one of 38 B-Cycle stations throughout town for easy short-term bike rentals.
