About RV&E

Commitment, loyalty and great customers have made RV&E Bike and Skate the oldest owner-operated bicycle store in Rochester. You couldn’t ask for more choices in bikes and accessories to test ride, try on, and touch. This store is our home and we want you to feel great about each visit!

Who is RV&E?

Howard Sharp

Howard Sharp, CEO ("Chief Engineer for Outdoors") is our founder and owner. If there's an outdoor activity, Howard does it. He hunts, fishes, races cars...he even plows snow!

Doug Sharp

Doug Sharp enjoys cycling when he's away from the shop. His wife Dana completed the Ironman in Lake Placid in 2007. He also races antique cars, manages the advertising, and keeps the web site filled with great information.

Dan

Dan has worked with Howard since 1979. Dan is a savvy buyer, a great salesman, a polished accountant, and an expert mechanic (when he has to be). When you're ready to lay out your hard-earned money on a new bike, you need to place your trust in the best. Dan is simply the best.

Mary Jeanne

Mary Jeanne has been a part of the RV&E team for over fifteen years and is always there to offer help. She believes that to be in this industry means to be an advocate for it, and that it is equally important to return something to the community which has supported RV&E Bike and Skate for the last 33 years. To this end, she initiated and cultivated a relationship between RV&E and Interlakes Foundation, a cancer research organization. I.F.'s Wellness Program was designed by Dr. James Fetten, a member of the race team that RV&E sponsors.

Tim

Tim is the Service Manager at RV&E Bike and Skate. He has been working with bicycles forever and working at RV&E for 9 years.
