IN THIS ISSUE — MAY 2008

Spring is here and it's time to tune up your bike. And get great, one day service! We will have your bike in and out, and have you riding the very next day.

BIKE GREEN AND SAVE GAS

Ever-rising gas prices getting you down? We'll put a basket on your bike, and you can head to the local market, going green all the way. We have a huge, new selection of cruiser bikes to choose from as well. Lots of very cool colors and styles from Trek, Raleigh, Nirve, Phat Cycle and Felt.

Come by and take a test ride to see just how comfortable these bikes are.You can always add a front or rear basket and a bell to any bike.

We also have a great selection of Road, Full Suspension and Front Suspension bikes to go along with a great line of kids bikes.

Thank you from our family to yours for making our 45 years in business possible.
