Our Staff | Winter Park Cycles - Orlando

Love us or hate us, we have personalities.

Joey

Road, mountain, 'Cross, or gravel. Sales, service, and back office. Joey started working in shops when he was 12, which may not even be legal, and we were lucky enough to find him after he had about 14 years under his belt. Originally a mechanic, he moved over to sales and management.

Joey loves every discipline of cycling from mountain to road, and now he's even ventured into the Zwift world. These days you’ll find him on the road, although that road may be dirt. From bikes to scooters to motorcycles, he will ride anything with two wheels.

Currently riding: Scott Addict RC Ultimate, Allied Echo w/SRAM Force AXS, and a Scott Scale 910.

Tic

As an active cyclist for about 16 years, he has been crushing the local scene for just as long. Tic is the one person who works in the shop who actually looks like a euro pro cyclist, and likely could have been one.

On the road, or off, he’s one of the nicest guys you’ll ever meet, so if you don’t like him, you should probably see a therapist and figure out what’s wrong with YOU. Our running shop joke is that we hate him for being so good at everything, but so nice at the same time. We’ve been to therapy about it, so it’s all good. Oh, and if you haven’t seen his artwork, you are missing out.

Currently riding: Parlee RZ7 w/Shimano Di2 9170, 3T Exploro, and a Scott Scale Ultimate.

Wes Irons - Lead Service Tech
A cyclist, first and foremost. Road, gravel, or mountain biking, he's done it, and still does, for 20 years. Spent 10 years at Winter Garden Wheelworks honing his wrenching skills, and he's considered one of the best, if not THE best, wrench in the Central Florida area. And that comes from both cyclists and industry insiders. He's also a US Army veteran with a tour of Iraq under his belt. Works well under pressure, and gets it right the first time -- because it matters.

Currently riding: He's still browsing. Might be pure road, might be an all road type bike.

Andrew - Sales

Also known as “Chef Andrew.” When he is not feeding the rest of the shop, and most of Orlando, he might be riding, or sailing, or cave diving, or surfing, or popping off some rounds at the firing range. He's passionate about a number of things, and he strives to know as much about all of them as he can.

El también habla español. Andrew es el hombre!

Currently riding: Enve Melee and a Scott Scale 900.

Ward

Some say they have met him, others say they saw him recently, and even more say they have never seen or talked to the guy. He does actually exist, though.

He’s our Chief Product Tester and if there is someone in the Florida area that has ridden more bikes than this guy, we’d like to meet, and bow before them. Ward knows his products and definitely has opinions. While his mileage isn’t what it used to be, he still gets excited about bikes, and wheels, and clothing, and everything else that is cycling. It’s in his blood, and has been since his first century with some friends at age 11.

People who get his dry humor, love it. Those that don’t, think he’s a total dick. People change sides, regularly.

Currently riding: 2023 Scott Addict RC Pro, Parlee RZ7 Di2, Mosaic RT1 ITR w/Campy SR EPS, Allied Able w/SRAM Red AXS and Classified Wheels, Allied Allroad w/9170 DI2, and a Scott Spark RC Pro w/XTR. Princeton CarbonWorks wheels, throughout.
