Claudia Woods
Owner / Partner
Hello, My name is Claudia Woods. I was born in Dallas, Texas
and attended Mountain View Junior College where I received
an Associate Degree in Business. Mark and I have been
married for 28 years and have been blessed with a daughter,
Cayce who is 25 and a son, Paul who is 22. We moved to New
Braunfels 3 years ago and just love it here. Now that our
children are grown I have time to come help out at Woods
Cycle Country. We have a great group of people to help you
with your riding needs. Our showroom is stocked full with
motorcycles to ride or race and ATVs and UTVs for both work
and play. Stop by and see us!

Mark J. Sheffield
General Manager

Thanks for taking the time out to visit the employee page of
our website. For those of you who want to know a little about
me, here goes: I was born in England (just north of London)
and I have lived all over the world. I graduated from High School
in Lumberton, Texas and 6 days later shipped off to Basic Training
at Fort Leonard Wood. I traveled all over the world with the
Army (including 9 months with the 1st Armored Division in Southeast
Asia during operation Desert Storm). I finished my military
service on a Monday in 1993 and started work at a small motorcycle
dealership located just outside of Fort Hood on a Tuesday. At
this point, the industry is all I know. Over the last 18 years
I have worked at one of the largest multi-line dealerships in
the United States, the second Honda Powerhouse dealership (Honda of
Houston) in the nation,
and I worked for a corporation that owned 17 dealerships across
the country (America's PowerSports). While Woods Cycle Country is not one of the mega
flashy dealerships that are all the rage right now, our modest
dealership allows us to keep our overhead low, and we pass those
savings on to our customers.
If you have a question, feel free to ask and I will be happy
to tell you what I think. We look forward to seeing you in our
dealership sometime soon.

Hablo español. I have been with Woods Cycle
Country for 5 years now. I enjoy what I do and the
people with whom I work. I really enjoy coming to work,
meeting new people, and helping them to find the right
vehicle for their needs. I was born here in New Braunfels,
TX, and lived here all of my life. I got my start in sales
at Bluebonnet Ford. I spend my weekends riding my Victory
motorcycle or spending time with family and friends. I have
a great wife and 2 wonderful little boys (Ethan and River)
and a new daughter, Shelby. I can't
wait for you to come in to Woods Cycle Country! Let me help
you find the perfect toy. I promise that you will not be disappointed
and I cannot wait to meet you.

Todd McEachern
Parts Manager
Motorcycles are my passion. I've been riding street bikes for
seventeen years now, and dirt bikes since I was big enough to
climb up on a hay bale so I could throw my leg over a motorcycle seat. I have have
worked in the power sports industry for about seven years. I'm
one of those people who loves what they do: getting up and going
to work, hanging out around motorcycles, and talking to people
about bikes. Life is good.

Sharon Rincon
Office Manager
Hi! I have been with Woods Cycle Country since April 2006. I am fairly new to the
motorcycle business, but I have been in the automotive retail industry for 23 years
(including World Car here in New Braunfels). Even though I am new to the motorcycle
business, my husband has been a rider for years. I have been married for 26 years to an incredible man and have one son, Richard, who is 25.
This is great place to work and a fantastic place to shop and visit. It’s never been so easy for me to get up and drive into work. We're like a big
family here. If you have any questions then stop by the office or just pop in to say “hi”.

Blake Flanagan
Sales Associate
Hello, I have been at Woods Cycle Country now for a little over
two years. I must say I enjoy working here at Woods as well
as the people I work with. In my spare time you can usually
find me wakeboarding out on the lake or working on my super-sized Ford F-350 (you will
know I am at work if the monster
truck is parked out front). I also own a Yamaha Zuma scooter
and a Yamaha Grizzly ATV. Come down to see me and
let me find the right machine for you.

Dan Purnell
Parts Associate
Hi, I'm Dan. Thanks for visiting our site on the Web. I have
worked in the recreational industry for the last 3 years, and
before that I was an A.S.E. certified automotive technician
(for 13 years). My primary job at the dealership is taking care
of incoming parts calls and making sure we get the parts
you need. With thousands of different models out there it can
be a challenge. Between calls I take care of all the shipping
and receiving. If you have any questions, feel free to give
me a call at (830) 606-9828 or e-mail me at the address listed
above.

Justin Tindall
Sales Associate
Hey, my name is Justin and I've been working here for about 5 years
now. I started out working in service, then moved to parts, and
now found my calling in the sales department. I was born and
raised here in New Braunfels where you can find me out on the
track riding my Yamaha YZ250F in my spare time (or taking
some classes at Texas State University in San Marcos). I enjoy working
in the motorcycle industry because it is a fun and laid-back
environment. If you’re in the market for a vehicle that will
add excitement to your life, come see me and I will make sure we
find the right one for you.

Ellen Chaffee
Office Assistant
Born and raised on the east coast, I came to Texas in 1975
by way of Houston. I met my husband of 30 years in Houston.
We moved to Martindale in 1980 and are still in the same
location. I came to Woods Cycle Country in November of 2007.
I’ve worked at several other places and must admit that I
enjoy coming to the office everyday here at Wood’s Cycle
Country. Since I work in the office I don’t get to meet most
of you but I know your name. Drop by the office and say
hello when you visit us.

Eddie Juarez
Parts Associate
Thanks for taking the time to visit our website. I'm Eddie
"the Aztec Warrior" Juarez, but I do have many names, so what
ever you feel like calling me I'll try to answer to it. I have
been with Woods Cycle Country for about 1 1/2 years. I
started as a service adviser, but now I'm in parts and
accessories as my second language was needed more at the
parts counter. I lived in Michoacan, Mexico for about 10
years, then I lived in my little hometown of Crossett, AR for
about 7-8 years. I Joined the military and moved around to where
the Army needed me. I really love this place; it's a great
and fun job here. I love to help people as much as I can and if
I don't have an answer I will find it and get back at you.
So stop on by and look at the great selection of
motorcycles, ATVs, and UTVs we have in stock and
the great accessories we have for them. Thanks for your time
and come see us.

to give me a call or an e-mail.

Parts Associate / Online Parts Sales
Hello. My name is Stephen Laurence and I do a little bit of everything in the parts and
accessories department. I make auctions for our inventory online (usually using eBay), so you can find some great deals there. I just graduated
with a degree in Philosophy from Texas State University and I'd love to talk about anything from motorsports to predicational paradox and from
ethics to combustion chambers. Give me a shout if you need anything for your bikes, ATV's, or UTV's.

Hello! My name is Bonnie Garrett and I am the new receptionist (as of May 2009) at Woods
Cycle Country. I grew up in Dripping Springs and I now live in San Marcos while I attend Texas State University. Before Woods Cycle Country I
didn't know anything about motorcycles, ATVs, or watercrafts, but after working here for only a month I have already learned so much about
everything! The staff and the customers are so friendly that I actually enjoy coming to work everyday! Whenever you dial the number to Woods
Cycle Country I'll be the voice on the other line and I'll make sure you talk to the right person to answer all of your questions!
