Charlie Storm is the owner of Storm Endurance Sports,. Charlie bought the store in 2004. After over 20 years of experience at the “hobby level” in endurance sports and outdoor activities, Charlie abandoned a well-established career as a Horticulturist.
Charlie has garnered a wealth of endurance sports knowledge over the years. His friendly, hands on style with his clients and employees, gives our store a very personal feel that can sometimes be hard to come by in today’s fast paced lifestyles.
