Miracle Cycle (Japanese: ミラクルサイクル Miracle Cycle) is a shop that sells bicycles in Kanto and Johto. Initially beginning business in Cerulean City, Miracle Cycle movedGSC/expandedHGSS to Johto after about three years, with a second shop in Goldenrod City, where they became popular with the help of the player.
It has no apparent presence in Hoenn, Sinnoh, or Kalos where Rydel's Cycles, Rad Rickshaw's Cycle Shop, and Cycle Shop dominate business, respectively.
The company name is never mentioned in any of the localized versions beside the French one, where it is known as "Cycles à Gogo". In all other localized versions, it is simply named Bike Shop.
In the games
Cerulean branch
The Cerulean branch can be visited in the Generation I games and Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen, where a bicycle is on sale for $1,000,000. As the player can only carry $999,999 at one time, this makes it impossible to buy. However, several vouchers for the expensive bicycle have been given away; the player can obtain one from the Chairman of the Pokémon Fan Club in Vermilion City and trade it in for the bicycle instead.
In the Generation II games, this branch of Miracle Cycle is shut down. In Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, however, the shop is still open, though nothing is obtainable here.
In Generation VII, this shop is replaced with the home of the Bike Maniac, who just collects many kinds of Bicycles, including Mach Bikes and Acro Bikes. He doesn't sell or give away any of them.

Goldenrod branch
The Goldenrod branch can be visited in the Generation II games and Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, where the owner will give the player a bicycle for free temporarily so that he or sheCHGSS can advertise the shop, stuck in an isolated corner of the city, to the people of Johto. After a certain amount of riding on the bicycle, the owner will call the player via the Pokégear, allowing them to keep the bicycle as thanks for bringing in so much customers.
In the Generation II games, it is mentioned that the owner moved from Cerulean City, shutting down the old shop in the process, while in the remakes, he recommends that the player visit the still-open shop in Cerulean.

Gold, Silver & Crystal arc
Whitney owns a Miracle Cycle bike which she used in a bike race against Gold. The race was designed as a promotion for the bikes, but Gold adapted his into a scooter.
Pocket Monsters HGSS
Miracle Cycle made an appearance in Pocket Monsters HGSS.
Pokémon Zensho
Miracle Cycle appeared in PZ03, where Satoshi was seen admiring the bikes there. When a Team Rocket Grunt attacked the shop, Satoshi battled the Grunt's Beedrill with his Charmander and won, driving him away.
Trivia
- In Generation I, a glitch can occur in the Cerulean City Bike Shop that will cause all the text on screen to appear instantly instead of showing one character at a time.
- In Generation I, there is game data for a Poké Mart that only sells a Bicycle. However, this game data remains unused, as the Miracle Cycle uses a completely separate script to deliver the Bicycle.
