FEATURE PHOTO: HOMETOWN MOUNTAIN BIKE RACE COURSE OPENS TODAY!
We know you’ve been itching to pre-ride the Hometown Bicycles Mountain Bike Marathon race course. Here’s your chance…
Jack and Shaun spent the morning mowing to cut the course that will challenge racers on September 14th. It loops out from the upper west parking lot in Atchison Park of Lyon Township (click for directions).
The course is open to all, so get out and ride it!
RIDE THE COURSE WITH US! Hometown’s peeps will be meeting up at Atchison Park this Sunday evening, August 18th, at 5:30pm to pre-race the course. Join us!
ICE CREAM & WHAT ON EARTH THAT HAS TO DO WITH SHOP RIDES
With Ritter’s right next door, ice cream has become part of our weekly diet here at Hometown. It’s also what inspired our new, Tuesday evening Ice Cream Ride!
Check out this, and other new shop rides, on our website. (Ride details are listed below the race information.)
REMINDER 1: DEMO A BIKE – NO CHARGE
Here’s the deal:
We understand that it’s difficult to really get to KNOW a bicycle on the showroom floor. That’s why we offer bike demo-ing, free of charge.
Just bring your helmet, ID, and enthusiasm, and we’ll hook you up.
Call ahead to confirm!
REMINDER 2: 48-HOUR TUNE-UP GUARANTEE
Hometown Service Lead, Luke, asked us to share a quick note about our being the ONLY bike shop in the U.S. that guarantees a 2-day turnaround on tune-ups! Our mission: Fast and phenomenal, so that you’re back in the saddle ASAP!
