There is a cool new business in Port Charlotte that motorcyclists need to know about. William Oquendo has opened “Biker Life”, a store at 3265 Tamiami Trail that carries all things biker. From motorcycle gear, to apparel and accessories, William carries a wide selection of things that you need. It is also part consignment shop where you can sell stuff that you have accumulated but no longer need.

William is a native Floridian born and raised in Miami. He served in the military as an Airborne Ranger. His interest in motorcycles started at aged 12 riding dirt bikes and is an avid rider today. William started Biker Life as an exclusively online store in 2014 and earlier this year when his wife’s job transferred her to southwest Florida, he looked around the area and soon realized that there was a huge biker community, but no independent retail biker stores to serve them. The logical solution in his mind was a brick and mortar location to keep himself busy…and busy he is. The few times I have visited the shop there has been a steady flow of new friends stopping by to see what’s inside. William is an engaging guy who is very welcoming to every person that comes through the door. He is also very knowledgeable about his extensive product lines and can easily help you find what you’re looking for.

Biker Life’s soft opening was only 2 months ago but William already has plans to start hosting/promoting on site motorcycle related events. He is a marketing minded, military veteran, biker with 3 Harleys in his garage, so be ready for some cool stuff coming soon.
