Meet Mike Goldstein of Tallahassee, FL

Fun-loving Community Advocate with a Heart of Gold

On a sweltering July afternoon, Mike Goldstein is completely comfortable as we sit by the fountain at Kleman Plaza. His red T-shirt reads “Are you bike curious?” with the hashtag justkeeppedaling referring to his business Capital City Pedicabs.

This boyish-looking man somehow reminds me of Peter Pan and may be of slight build, but his social stature is enormously impressive. Mike is respected by students, stars, and prominent political and business leaders of Tallahassee. He is a business owner, graphic designer, gamer, writer, and autograph collector.

Mike, tell me a little bit about your job.

       I own Tallahassee’s first pedicab business. We offer eco-friendly and affordable rides on our three-wheeled bikes that can hold up to four passengers. We know the best places, events, and the best ways to get there. As owner and one of the drivers, I get to see the best of Tallahassee on three wheels.

What else do you love about Tallahassee?

       Great football, great politics, and so much more. We have amazing places to see all year round.

What do you enjoy doing for fun and relaxation?

       I love rocking out to music to get my creative juices flowing. Hitting up a karaoke night at a local bar, meeting celebrities at a comic con, or hanging out at afterhours events.

What makes you an exuberant person?

       I am a people connector and master networker. If I don’t know someone, I will very soon. And I will help them connect with others by the end of an event. I encourage everyone to get out, explore Tallahassee and be sure to support local businesses.

Any other places you’d like to see?

       I would like to revisit Los Angeles and maybe go see New Zealand.

Anything else you’d care to share?

       Be positive, be kind. Remember…just keep pedaling and everything will be alright.
