Recently, television and newspaper reporters have been interested in what’s happening at Bloomfield Bicycle Shop, in Bloomfield CT. On Veteran’s Day, the shop got quite a bit of media attention because of a mechanic who works there. Brian Tinsley was wounded in the war in Afghanistan in 2003, and he lost his sight. Brian was a customer of the shop before his military service; in the army, he was a vehicle mechanic. When he came home, Bloomfield Bicycle owners Michael and Rachel Wolf hired the 25-year old, who works on bicycles by touch.
