Hometown Bicycles

MOUNTAIN BIKERS TAKE NOTE!  Get ready to kick it up a notch at Hometown’s first official Spring event: JAMIS DEMO 2013.

On April 7th, we invite you to rock the trails with Jamis’ newest and greatest mountain bike models. You’ll have the opportunity to test ride super high-end bicycles, including Jamis’ revolutionary 650B wheel size.

There’ll be food, a chance to earn $20 store credit (see below), charity ride info tables, Team Hometown representatives and, of course, Jamis’ giant Demo Trailer.

The following demo bikes will be available to ride on the trails of Island Lake:

The Jamis Demo will be held just down the road from Hometown Bicycles at Promess Incorporated, 11429 Grand River Road in Brighton. (Click here for directions.) Access to the Island Lake trails is right across the street.

SUNDAY, APRIL 7TH DEMO HOURS:  NOON – 6PM

OUR STORE WILL CLOSE EARLY:  On April 7th, our store hours will be 7am – Noon, so that everyone can make the Demo!

Hometown’s spreading across the globe! Earlier this month, long-time customer, Don Wood, set up an impromptu Hometown “photo shoot” during his cycling adventure through the frozen wilds of icy Rohn, Alaska. Don biked the Iditarod Trail on his Salsa Mukluk Fat Bike.

How cool is that?! Thanks for making us a part of it, Don!
