Who we are

Galaxy Bicycles is a shop that values excellent service with quick turn around. We can’t do that without having amazing employees to make sure that goal is met. Here’s a little bit about all the people you’ll meet in the shop, below:

Andy Howard

Andy Howard started Galaxy Bicycles as The Hub Cyclery in 2008. After 12 great years, he decided to take the next step in the shop’s evolution, and opened a new, purpose built space to further his vision of a service first bike shop. Andy’s a trail enthusiast and you can find him on Spring Lake, Purgatory, Madrone or any of the other awesome Central Texas trails we have at our doorstep.

Andy O.

Ask my mom and she can confirm how many times we went back to Family Video to rent a copy of Rad. But the BMX dream comes hard to a poor boy from the sticks. Delivering papers paid for the first "real" bike, but it was up to me to keep it rolling. Years of hard work brought about semi-pro status, but willingly throwing yourself down stairs takes its toll, and the time comes when spinning the pedals becomes easier than spinning the bars. I traded the 20 for a 29er and found that big wheels roll best in the dirt. Nowadays I find myself exploring the trails and back roads, sometimes even sleeping out there. Pedaling is my passion, but wrenching pays the bills.

Lucas Ferguson

Lucas grew up on a turtle sanctuary in southeast Florida. After spending more than 20 years rescuing countless turtles and the occasional manatee, he left the coast for Texas State, where he studied mathematics, often pondering equations deep into the night. In a stroke of genius and what one might call great luck, he stumbled upon the solution for one of physics’ greatest mysteries, forever securing his place in mathematical history. He is now retired and enjoys a quiet life in San Marcos, TX, fixing bikes and taking an occasional dip in the river.

Justin Greenfield

At the young age of 3, before even learning to read, Justin’s parents discovered his innate talent for cycling. He quickly rose through the amateur and then pro ranks, joining the Tour de France at the young age of 10 — by far the youngest participant ever to race the iconic route and finishing 10th that year. But his fortune and fame would not last long. Being a celebrity was not the recognition Justin was craving, and he gracefully retired from the spotlight in his late teens to study entomology at UNC, where he became the world’s leading expert on the scorpionfly. Justin still reminisces about his days as a young cyclist from time to time, especially when he drops everyone on local group rides.
