I love this place.Off the beaten path but nicely situated near the Roanoke River and Wasena restaurants and brewery.Very knowledgeable on biking and bike repairs and very interesting shop with new and consignment items.Also have Kayak information and will drop you off at different locations on the Roanoke river for reasonable price.Finally the employees are friendly and knowledgeable but there is no sales pressure. Any questions?
Great bike rental experience. Jeff went above and beyond to set me up, showed me the local trails, and made sure my ride was dialed in. Whole staff was really pleasant to talk to and knew their stuff. Highly recommend.
Convenient bike rental adjacent to the Roanoke River Greenway. Very friendly and accommodating staff. Very reasonable rates. Equipment was in good shape. Part of the Greenway that we rode was very nice, another part less so. But dont let that discourage you, you can find lovely ways to go if you have the time.
Great place to rent a bike. Knowledgeable staff that helped me plan a really fun mountain bike ride at Carvins Cove. The rental bike they have are quite high quality and well maintained. If you need to rent a bike in Roanoke I highly recommend.
Great idea to have a consignment outdoor store. A lot of their stuff lasts for a long time so it’s great to buy used.The staff is very friendly and helpful.I was visiting roannoke. I needed some bike equipment and they were able to help me out. I’ll definitely be stopping back here next time I’m around these parts.
Their bike mechanics are top notch! They did a great job fixing some shifting issues for me!
I thought Id check it out been here about six years now really like mountain biking and they also rent bikes which is awesome check it out people.
Rented a SUP for the day and headed out to Carvins Cove. The RMA staff were super friendly and provided me with great beta on the area along with several other adventure options should I finish my paddle early.My rental included: (1) inflatable 10 6 SUP, (1) PFD, (1) paddle, (1) leash and (1) dual chamber pump.If you forget anything - dont worry - the RMA store is chuck full of goodies to get you outfitted for whatever adventure you have in mind. Even better, the community of Wasena (where RMA is located) has some great food options for your pre or post adventure munchies.
Roanoke Mountain Adventure is a top notch facility, Jeff and his staff are very friendly and professional. If you looking to go kayaking or tubing, mountain biking, then go see these guys a support a Great local company providing Great Adventures!
One of the coolest stores in Roanoke, selling all sorts of used outdoor gear and clothes. I stop by once a week just to see if they have any new inventory. Pricing system that starts to go down in price after so many weeks have elapsed, so you can catch some great deals if youre lucky and they have what youre looking for. They do rentals too, but I havent tried that out.
Cheap and easy to get bikes and other gear. Great service
I was on vacation and rented two bikes to utilize on the Greenways for half a day. The price was quite affordable as it comes with a bike and a helmet for four hours. The bikes themselves were high quality and made the 19 miles one the quite enjoyable! Highly recommend this place if you want to experience some of the sights of Roanoke on bike!
I rented a hard-tail mountain bike for 24 hours. The equipment is well-maintained and in great working order. The manager mentioned he regularly receives offers to purchase his mtbs. I received immediate attention from the staff when I walked in the door. My bike was test driven before I could take it away, and in fact, they installed new brake pads as a result. (it only took a few minutes to install new pads).I will rent here again.I had a chance to take a good look at some of their inventory of rentals. It was an impressive array, largely of Cannondale touring bikes.
Bought a great used bike at a fair price and enjoyed excellent.customer swrvice
My first time being there and also the first time tubing too. It was Super Awesome place to go .. Staff was amazing!
Great consignment shop with knowledgeable associates. Theres a great selection of clothing and gear for outdoor adventures, and youll find some amazing deals.
Great place. Staff is very knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. Came with my friend who rented a mountain bike for a few days. The bikes they rented him were great. Prices were very fair. They also gave us suggestions on where to ride each day/what trails to take. Im glad we listened because they were some of the best rides Ive been on. Cant recommend this place enough.
I havent had a good bike rental experience until now. These guys hooked me up with exactly the bike I needed for the trails around here, and gave me all the support I needed for the ride. This means they let me borrow a backpack, pump, patch kit, tool kit, helmet and even a spare tube. Im 63 so I usually ride an XL frame, which is a tough one to rent, but these guys had me covered. They also gave me a map of the local trails and helped me plan a route based on my skill level and the time I had to ride. If the fates ever decide I should come back to Roanoke, then I will be renting from this place again.
Staff is always extremely nice and informative, they really know their gear! Great place to sell some of the outdoor things you arent using anymore!
Theyre really nice, and have a lot of nice outdoors type consignment things at fair prices. Ive consigned bikes and outdoors items with them and I think theyre great. 60% to you.They also rent bicycles, kayaks and tubes. In the old ice plant right on the Roanoke River at Wasena.
One of the best stores in Roanoke. I’ve gotten a bunch of good deals here and I’ve also sold a lot of things through their consignment store. I don’t spend much because I usually have some store credit saved up from how quickly they are able to price and sell the items. You also have the option of cashing out. Nice selection of bikes to buy and rent as well.
We rented bikes here to ride along the nearby greenway. The staff was very friendly and helpful. They also have great deals on their consignment gear!
Always stop when Im in town, They have different items every week, From running,biking, hiking and water activities And can answer just about any ? About every outdoor activity.
Far and away the best outdoor consigner I have been in. They find that perfect line where the customers and consigners both win. Ultimately making the store successful.Dont forget about their rental programs!
Cool local used gear store, fun to dig through
Your tubing rentals are double the price of other places, you dont offer cooler or tube rentals, and your tubing times are half the run time of other tubing companies. RMA is not worth tube renting from!!
These folks are some of the most helpful, friendly, and knowledgeable people. The consignment shop had a wide selection of options, at really fantastic prices!
I rented tubes today for my family. We had a great time on the river, the staff was patient, friendly, and helpful. They provided a dry bag for our gear, a water, and even gave my husband a ride back to our vehicle (parked upstream... have a 3 year old).It was a great time and we’ll definitely be back. Check out the consignment shop... we found shoes for our daughter.
Great experience renting mountain bikes. Jeff, the owner, was super nice and helpful.
Rusell (?) and James set us up and we were in our way! Slow cruise down the Roanoke river was great. Good times!
The staff was very friendly and helpful!! Me and my family loved our experience with Roanoke mountain adventure, the tubes were very comfortable and sturdy. Will definitely come back to this amazing business again! If you ever visit Roanoke and want to float the Roanoke river then mountain adventures is definitely the place to go to!
My boyfriend and I were eating at Wasena Tap Room and decided that we wanted to rent a couple kayaks the following Sunday. We walked over to RMA and were surprised and happy that they were open. We rented right then and there for the following Sunday.On Sunday, for pick up, it was completely seamless!! Dan was a wonderful rep for the company with his very laid back demeanor and great personality.We absolutely enjoyed our entire trip from setting up the rental to drop off.We will definitely be back!!
Great service, we called to ask about renting a carrier for our son and they didn’t have one but Jim was happy to point us to another store that might. We ended up renting mountain bikes from RMA and the staff was extremely helpful and the bikes were top notch.
Rents alot more than bikes....intertubes sre so fun! Highly recommended!
One of my favorite places to shop. Selection changes frequently and always a friendly staff.
Great prices on quality used outdoor gear and clothing. Friendly staff. I always enjoy shopping here
Its a great place to get away from the troubles of the world
Love RMA! Kind staff and awesome selection of cool second-hand products!
RMA is a great place and does great things for the community! The owners are both very friendly and are easy to talk to. This shop has a great relationship with other outdoor shops in the area. You can tell they are here to have a good time and not here to be jerks and run the place. The only reason this isnt a 5 star review is on one of the sponsored rides, the Thursday Night Special, its a free for all. Its labeled as an all levels ride but it is not. If you are not in decent riding shape you will be left behind. Ive personally made sure that visitors werent left alone on the trail and made sure they got back safely. Otherwise the ride is very low pressure and isnt technical at all.
One of the most fun places to shop in the valley. Used outdoor gear and friendly staff next to good beer and a climbing gym.Great local knowledge that benefits people new to mountain biking or experienced riders wanting to try out the valley.
This is a must-see shop for any Roanoke visitor or local. Great prices on top-of-the line gear. Selection is always changing so good to visit every week or two. James and Dan are true outdoorsman and get you set up for any adventures. Also perfect place to rent gear. I rented an super nice inflatable paddle board and put on the river right at their shop. When finished just deflate and put in trunk. Check this place out!
I have only used this as a consignment store--both as a buyer and a seller. Staff are knowledgeable and very kind. One encouaged me to bring in my bike to try out a used rack before I purchased it to be sure it would fit. I had a very smooth experience selling my gear. Definitely worth checking out before buying something new!
Super knowledgeable and helpful. All the staff are very friendly and great to talk to.
Cool place to check out. Lots of neat consignment stuff. Nice bike rentals. Knowledgeable staff.
I have rented both road and mountain bikes and never disappointed. They even switched to my pedals without complaint or charge. Great local knowledge for all outdoor activities.
Excellent place ran by excellent people.
Super knowledgeable staff. I am new to the town and they showed me all the good trails to bike on for my ability and preference. Very friendly!
My husband and I went for a guided afternoon SUP trip with James, and would highly recommend it to everyone we know. His instruction was helpful and immediately put to good use. Well definitely be back!!
We were in from CA visiting friends in Blacksburg area during Christmas week, the weather was great. If I would have known the weather and trail conditions were so good, I probably would have humped my mountain bike the 3k miles along with me, as the trails around Roanoke and B-burg are some of the best in the USA. My son had a positive experience renting a bike from RMA a few years ago, so I gave them a call. Dan set me up with a Guerilla Gravity Trail Pistol with my choice of pedals. He also set me up with a pack, a multi-tool, a pump, and a patch kit! The bike was a hoot, it had the exact same rubber that I run on my bikes, same gearing, bar width, etc. The GGs are versatile bikes with modern geometry. I rode Carvins and Brush Mountain, and the Trail Pistol rode like it was tailor made for my trail choices and how I like to ride. The rental rate for such a quality bike was exceptional, not to mention Dans personal attention to the details. If you are in the area and you need to ride to maintain your sanity, call RMA and you can shred some world class trails on a bike thats up to the task! Thanks Dan, Ill be back!
Great selection and fair prices. Friendly knowledgeable staff.
Price is nice but the river you travel down is dirty and u feel like floating down sewer. No fault of the company just the river dirty due to the public
Love the adventures we get to go on with them
Best place in town to find used outdoor gear and equipment
Really friendly people you should chat with before planning outdoor adventures in the area. The only place in town you can rent an upper scale road bike from! Lots of advice on coffee shops, trails, rides, rafting, kayaking, people, and places to check out. A great assortment of used sports gear to peruse (they do consignment).
Nice staff very knowledgeable good rental pricing good rental equipment
Awesome place and great people! They have high quality rentals and super consignment gear! Experts on outdoor things to do in the area!
We had a great time. They have two rental options for half day i.e. 4 hours or for a full day. We took the 4 hours and had great fun!
Set me up with a rental bike to ride Carvins Cove. Great bike, super-friendly service. Totally recommended. Get a post-ride burger and beer next door.
They have tons of equipment to buy and to rent. People there are super nice
Great place with good people and fantastic deals
Handy outfitter and gear shop next to the Green way and Roanoke river. They rent kayaks, tubes, SUPs, and bikes. The also sell gently used outdoor gear.
What is the first time Ive ever been in this little shop. It is located in between Wasena and Smith Park.It appeared that they rented installed kayaks canoes paddleboards mountain bikes and stuff like that, consignment is also an option for you when it comes to items of that nature. I was told by someone that works therethat they do not flat-out my anyting if it will help you sell it.THEY ALSO RENT TUBES YOU CAN FIGHT THE ROANOKE RIVER IN THAT AREA. THEY TAKE YOU UPSTREAM AND THEN YOU FLOAT DOWN TO THEIR STORE.SEEMS LIKE A REALLY COOL PLACETHAT IS RAN LIKE OLD PEOPLE I GIVE IT A 5 OUT OF 5 YOU SHOULD CHECK IT OUT.
Lots of great stuff. You should check it out
Thank you Jim for understanding the VBR VIP PASS and allowing my daughter and I to come and enjoy our day on the green river trail even tho you almost charged us haha thank you so very much you was so kind to us
So helpful and friendly, and they have a great selection.
James took my husband and I on an instructional kyiack float. So much fun. I only went in the water once. Great way get the experience before you spend money on your own kyiack. Great place to get started. James was a lot of fun.
These guys are awesome. Great prices and very easy to work with. I will definitely be back.
I really loved the concept of a used outdoor gear consignment shop but the sheer lack of inventory left more to be desired. The owners must make most of their money by tours and rental fees because theres not enough items for sale in the shop to sustain anyone.
Friendly staff. Great prices on consignment goods. Excellent quality on rentals.
Great place to shop or even just look around, when ever Im close by I always stop in, they have some amazing deals .
Friendly folks, Great service and good prices. Always something interesting to buy!
Great consignment shop for us gearheads.
Fantastic experience, the icing on the holiday cake! Exhilarating mountain bike trip, relaxing tube ride on the river (twice..) and my only regret was we ran out of time. RMA are friendly, knowledgeable and non-judgemental, they did everything they could to make our visit to Roanoke memorable. Do yourselves a favor and call them.
Awesome people, awesome deals. Great place to find quality gear at great prices, or to make some cash from your old gear.
I go to college in Roanoke and my dad came to town for a visit. Dan hooked up my dad with a REAL mountain bike- a Santa Cruz Superlight. We then proceeded to have a blast at Carvins Cove. I would highly recommend Roanoke Mountain Adventures for all of your outdoor adventure needs. They have solid equipment and they have great staff that can make recommendations for all levels of usage.
Great service, we rented moutain bikes for an afternoon, bikes were well maintained, staff was efficient and friendly, and I found the pair of gloves i needed for the ride in the consignment store.
Great shop, guys are super helpful. Their consignment area is fantastic for bargains on gear!
James and the team at RMA are true professionals and have everything you could need for your trip. Our family threw together a last minute day float and we were lacking a few items - RMA had us covered! We really enjoyed our float of the Roanoke River -- we did not know how much was available in our own backyard and how much we had been missing. Ill definitely be circling back for a float (or several!) next season.
Very helpful. Great gear.
Great staff, very reasonably priced.
Awesome selection of used gear and super knowledgeable staff. A true asset to the Roanoke outdoor community.
This is the only place I shop for sports cloths and equipment ...seriously great vibes and deal!s!
Friendly faces, awesome shop, must visit.
Great previously owned gear at very reasonable prices. We check back a lot, because theres always something there that I can use!
Great place with a lot of used and consigned sporting goods and clothesof all kinds. The staff has been very friendly every time that Ive been in.
Its not new but Awesome, Not cheap as you expect but Good quality, mostly Sports and Athletic stuff,Not for everyone, check my pics 😉
My wife and I rented bikes there and rode Mill Mountain. These guys were very helpful and friendly.
Great place for all your Mountain Biking needs. I picked up a Norco on my visit and hit up the local trails at Carvins Cove and Pandapas Pond. Great people, great service!
Awesome service, sweet bikes, friendly staff!
This place is great! Excellent service and equipment, knowledgeable and helpful staff. We rented greenway bikes (hop on the greenway right near the shop). We were visiting the area and Dan gave lots of helpful tips on what to see and do along the greenway.
Very affordable clothing/equipment and friendly staff.
Great variety of quality lightly used equipment.
Good place to look for used outdoor gear
Staff was very helpful and friendly
Great gear at good prices!
Hit or miss with merchandise and staff. Sometimes we go in and the staff is friendly and helpful, other times we go in and staff doesnt bother to speak.
