The museum closed. The owners took their private collection elsewhere. But the bike ride down route 9 between Newcastle and Delaware city is very nice. there is a festival in October built around this ride.

I traveled to this museum with my 4 year-old son. He loved walking though the exhibits. The people who run the shop are very friendly and I was impressed that they took the time to talk to my son and answer his questions even though the museum was quite busy that afternoon.

The owner of the collection moved it out of state and there is now a restaurant there that is run by the people who ran the museum. It was closed the day I was there.

A collector who wants to share their passion for cycling history opened this quirky store-front museum on the main street in this quiet little town. It is only open Saturdays from 11-5 (free). Worth planning as a destination if you are a serious cycle buff, otherwise it is a nice place to stop by for an hour while you are in town for other reasons.
