The man, the myth, the Monte.
We want to take a minute to celebrate the life of a legend.
Tim Doyle bought Bay City Cycles with Carl Beck in 1987 and soon after became business partners with current owner Karl Faber. Tim was a friend. A mentor. A Monte. He was the mix of mischief, reflection, thought, and motivation that we all wish to see in the world. Bay City Cycles would not have been the same without Tim. Northland College would not have been the same. The Chequamegon Area and the Queeb community would not be the same. He touched our lives. Karl is proud to have called him a friend and fellow trouble maker.
Rest in peace, friend.
