The ‘laboratory’ was Gravy’s workshop, tucked away at the back of a cavernous bike shop called the Fairfax Cyclery.
- Role: setting
- In the book: Penn visits Steve ‘Gravy’ Gravenites’s workshop, a ‘laboratory’ at the back of the Fairfax Cyclery, to commission his wheels, among signed photos and race memorabilia.
- Why it matters: The shop is where the wheel-building chapter starts and the base for the Repack ride.
