Learn About the History Behind G-Team Racing

Family-Owned Garage From the Beginning

In 1947, Charles Kradzinski Sr. and his son, Gene, started a refrigeration / air conditioning repair shop. Gino's uncle, Bob, was the motorcycle man from the army. This was how the service center got started. As in tradition when Gene Jr. came along, his passion for motorcycles took over the entire establishment. Since 1974, it's always been known as Gino's Cycles.

Still Working, Decades Later

In 1974, since Gene Jr. aka Gino took over the shop, it's been nothing but motorcycles. Four decades of customers so far, selling your dad his first motorcycle, you and now your kids. Gino grew the business, to Philadelphia’s longest-running independent motorcycle service center.

Expanding the Empire

In 2004, Mindi Martina, a longtime friend took over ownership. Being a woman-owned minority business, she was able to obtain contracts and become the warranty service center for Baja, Motovox, Coleman, and Go-Ped to name a few. 

Mindi also started marketing as a woman-owned business, as well as getting the shop onto social media. Now, years later, Gino’s Cycle Center and G-Team Racing are widely known as one and the same throughout the industry.

Giving Back to the Community

Gino now has time to give back to the community. He has started a mentoring program for youths looking for a career, he had trees planted on the 2600 block of Belgrade Street. Gino is involved with the (AMA) American Motorcyclist Association and the Philadelphia's Coalition for the (PORVP) Philadelphia Off-Road Vehicle Park.

Gene has been known as the "Go-To Man" for neighbors needing a tool, a helping hand in the home or a connection with a service. Gene still uses a "Rolodex."  Gino’s Cycle Center and G-Team Racing are known for their true customer appreciation, community service and above all – a trusted establishment.
