Ray's Bike Shop

08/21/2026

We are very sad to announce the passing of Joe Oberloier, the previous owner of Ray's. We will be closed this Sunday, August 23rd for his funeral and we would like to encourage anyone who knew him to join us in Gladwin in his honor.

Our thoughts are with his daughters and grandchildren as we all say goodbye to a truly remarkable person, leader, mentor, artist, father, grandfather, and friend. We will miss you Joe.

View Joe Oberloier's obituary, send flowers, find service dates, and sign the guestbook.

When Mom and Dad say, “We’re just going to LOOK at bikes.”

The kid 37 seconds after walking into Ray’s Bike Shop: 🕺😂

He already picked the bike.
He already planned the first ride.
He’s mentally halfway down the trail.

Mom and Dad are still discussing the budget. 🤣

🚲 Bring the kiddos into Ray’s Bike Shop in Midland and check out the kids’ bikes. Just be warned… apparently bike shopping may cause spontaneous dancing.

The Crusher isn’t your average gravel race. It’s long. It’s rough. And it’ll expose every weakness in your equipment.

So why did Darren choose this setup?

In this video, he breaks down the thought process behind the bike he’ll be trusting in one of the toughest races in the Upper Peninsula. From comfort and capability to confidence when the trail gets ugly, every choice has a purpose.

If you’re getting ready for Crusher, Marji, or just looking for your next gravel bike, this is worth the watch.

What would you change on your dream Crusher setup? Let us know in the comments. 👇
