Red Raven combines a bicycle shop with a cafe on 3rd Avenue SW in Crosby, a short ride from the Cuyuna Lakes mountain bike trails. The retail side sells and services mountain bikes, e-bikes, and cycling accessories from brands such as Salsa and Specialized, with full-suspension demo models and daily rentals available for visitors heading to the trail system. Mechanics tune and refresh bikes brought in from out of town, and staff share route advice for first-time Cuyuna riders. The cafe serves house-roasted coffee, housemade chai, breakfast burritos, sandwiches, and smoothies, with a pet-friendly patio for outdoor seating. Travelers use the shop as a trailhead stop, renting bikes, buying clothing and parts, and eating before or after rides. Red Raven stays open daily from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m., positioning it as a regular waypoint for cabin traffic between the Twin Cities and the lakes country. The building blends retail racks, a service bench, and cafe seating under one roof, so a repair can be paired with a meal.
