Luke and Ben are great guys with a great mission, to support veterans and first responders through their shop. I have taken three welding clinics, having never touched a welder, and had a blast! The instruction and practical application of the lessons were excellent!!! I highly recommend anyone check out and support Luke and Ben and the Garrison Speed Shop!

I've worked with Garrison Speed Shop on multiple occasions. They have serviced my bike as well as partnered on events with my non profit. The services they offer to our veterans and first responders is amazing and I encourage others to support them.

Luke has done some incredible things at GSS to help our nation's active military, veterans, and first responders through recreational motorcycle programs and skilled trade vocational services. Highly recommend visiting the shop to witness it for yourself first hand!

As a veteran, I try to support as many organizations like the Garrison Speed Shop as I can. That being said, I don’t think I’ll ever take my bike to anyone else after the job they did. I have a 2015 softail slim custom and I wanted more out of my bike. I talked with Luke and the guys at GSS for about a month through phone calls and e-mails and they convinced me to bring my bike all the way from Missouri to Massachusetts to do some upgrades to the engine. They put a true dual exhaust, changed the cams, changed out the ECM to a thundermax, and all the small things that go with all of that. When it was done in just a few days, my Harley was a completely different bike. It runs better and angrier in every way. After all was done, my bike was better than I expected and I made some new friends. I knew I wanted my Harley to run better but they exceeded every expectation I had. I also got a tshirt, a hoodie, and some beanies from them. This shop is legit. Thank you GSS for doing your magic, I’m a customer for life now.

The work that Luke does at GSS is incredible! The shop is super clean and beautifully laid out! If you have a loved one who is a military veteran please consider Luke’s shop as the primary place where you can spend time and learn new skills! GSS is also non profit so do not hesitate to donate to this amazing cause!

I took a basic welding class to make a barn star at the Garrison Speed Shop in Mendon, Massachusetts. I have never welded before or used some of the tools and equipment required. The template pieces were all laid out, but that was it. Co-founder Luke had me read and sign all the releases first, and asked about my experience with welding etc. Being a Veteran myself, Luke as well, and the non-profit supporting Veterans and First Responders, he also made sure to ask me if loud noises or anything would bother me. Every step was explained and demonstrated before I was able to do it, and as nervous as I was at first, it quickly went away knowing he took my safety, the safety of others as well as their shop very seriously. Co-founder Ben also provided some muscle when I was unable to bend the metal myself. In just over 2 hours I had sanded, measured, re-measured, bent , hammered and welded together a really cool one of a kind 5-sided barn star. It was definitely something different to do and it was a really cool and fun experience.5 stars!

Ben and luke are fantastic guys to work with. As two vets running a non-profit you can really see the passion these guys put into their work. I saw them bang out a wire harness on this Harley for all these custom led lights that were being installed in the front fairing and where most mechanics would crimp, they sodererd every connection. Their attention to detail is bar none!!!I also started a welding class at G.S.S and they are super patient and don't mind taking the time to answering all of my questions. I came there to learn the basics and Luke and Ben have gone above and beyond what I expected to learn! Do yourself a favor and check out the shop.Thanks again for everything gentlemen.Matt

This place is amazing. Luke and Ben have been extremely helpful with any and all questions I have had for them. You can see that they really have made this mission a focus of their’s by putting the time in to make it successful. This facility is a great opportunity to work on your bike or just go and talk to likeminded individuals. They seem to always be looking to get involved in anyway they can within the local communities to better serve the people who have either served in the past or continue to do so. Definitely give this place a try even if you are not mechanically inclined, they will be there every step of the way to help you out in anyway they can. I will not go anywhere else.

I've had the pleasure of meeting Ben & Luke on a several occasions. I was so impressed with their passion for helping others and the way they are providing a tangible experience for people to either learn new skills or to further build upon their current skill sets.They are really knowledgeable, approachable, friendly and just really positive.They offer a bunch of different clinics that teach (from the ground up) repairs and maintenance, performance upgrades, as well as fundamental metal fabrication metal repair.These guys take paying it forward to an entirely new level.Well done Gentleman!
