Read MoreMost grocery stores accept bicycles coming through Safeway and Walmart are king at this as well as many others. So long as you’re not causing problems for employees, other customers or riding your bike in the store.
When I went through, walking with my bike, all I wanted was to buy some fresh pet for my dog. I paused in front of the fridge and decided to take a picture to send to my wife to decide on what to choose.
Keep in mind all I did was walk through the store, held my bicycle up, didn’t run into anybody didn’t cause a ruckus or anything just a man walking over to buy dog food, bike in tow.
Management decides to send the security guard with a gun strapped to himself to come talk to me about how their policy doesn’t allow bicycles in the store.
Guard was pretty cool and understanding on why I wouldn’t want to leave an expensive bike outside. Electric and almost 3 Grand, and with town getting worse. I don’t like to leave my stuff outside here.
I let the guard know I would just be buying one small log of Fresh pet and paying for it before leaving, if that was okay. Then told him I rather not come back to a store that sends the guard with a gun to talk to someone who isn’t doing anything.
I paid for my dog’s food and their employees and management tried to make awkward conversation about my bike, which clearly no one was interested.
Finally tried to walk out when an employee coming in for work, decides to stare at me angrily (mad dog if you will) as he’s coming in and I’m trying to leave, we just accidentally bumped into each other not even physically. The man made me feel so uncomfortable and didn’t budge, so I had to walk backwards along with my bike to let him through before I could finally walk out of the exit and end that entire ordeal.
As a local for over 23 years I have never felt so unwelcome in a store before.
I think what was the worst feeling is that the store employees and management didn’t feel the need to talk to me first, just straight up sent the guy with a gun.
