Meet Don Mann

Your local Cycologist

I’m an avid runner, cyclist and all-round active guy, and I’m happy to bring my riding and wrenching experience to the Mann Bike Cave.

After retiring from my career I decided it was time to concentrate on my love of the bicycle and share my passion with fellow riders.

I’ve also been a running instructor for people from beginners to marathoners, and more recently for long distance cycling events. My background includes two full Ironman completions along with several shorter distance triathlons.

I discovered my strength as a rider, so I love a good conversation about cycling, and I look forward to supporting my community as a bike mechanic.
