Hey all, Just an FYI - we will be closed on Christmas Day as well as the 26th. We'll be open for the remainder of the week with regular hours. We'll also be closed on New Year's Eve and New Year's Day! Have a safe and happy holiday season!

Hi all, Hope this year has been as good to you as it has to us! Thanks to seriously kick ass customers we've had a strong season, and a great year all around. This time of year finds us starting a little remodel while building new bikes and looking forward to the 2013 season (after a well deserved break in late January/early February). Once again we're hosting a Holiday Party, and this years shindig will go down on December 15th between the hours of 2 and 6pm. Feel free to swing by and guzzle our drinks and partake in our pulled pork, chili or whatever other good stuff Stacy decides to make for us all! A vegetarian dish of some sort will also be on the menu, so there you go. Please bring an unwrapped toy to be entered in a raffle for bike gear and accessories! All the toys collected will be donated to Children's Friend as part of their Spirit of Giving Campaign . Clothing such as mittens, gloves, hats etc make great gifts and are very much appreciated as well! Ahead o

Hi folks, It's been a while but I like to wait until we actually have something to talk about so, on that note, here goes... The annual Lincoln Woods Fun Ride is happening on 11/4. The rain date it 11/11. Same deal as it always is, bring canned and/or non perishable food items and ride for free! Everyone loves free stuff, right? Flyer for said event is below. All the food and any cash donations go to the RI Community Food Bank so please be generous! Parking will be the same as years past in the lot by the beach, next to the little cemetery. Registration will run from 9 - 12. Arrows come down by 2:00! Plan accordingly. There will be chili and hot dogs and good tasty treats for after the ride as well. The trails will be leaf blown just before the ride and we'll likely throw in some new stuff this year to keep it interesting and maybe make it a bit longer. Directions: Rte 146 to the Twin River Road exit. Left off the exit if coming from the South. Right off the exit

All of our in stock KHS and Rocky Mountain fitness, road, mountain and cyclocross bikes are 15% off! And, you still get to take 10% off any and all accessories you buy with the bike. Not a bad deal.

Speaking of rides and social events... We are going to host a bike swap/ride/BBQ here at the shop in August. We're still working on the date but the idea is to hold a swap, ride from the shop to Lincoln Woods for a

Hi all, It's already May! Insane, isn't it? Seems like it was just yesterday we were getting back down to business here after our winter break... Hopefully you've taken advantage of the dry, warm and generally great weather we've enjoyed in southern New England as of late. The Monday night Lincoln Woods rides are in full swing.We're still meeting at the covered bridge off of route 123 at 6:00 on Monday nights, and we're able to ride for almost two hours now that the sunset is cooperating with us! The Thursday night Big River ride has now moved to exit 6 (Burnt Sawmill Rd.) and starts at 6:00 these days, just a friendly reminder. Speaking of Lincoln Woods.... if you ride in there without a helmet well, then, you probably don't need one. Seriously kids! Use your damn brains while you still got 'em. I'm getting tired of seeing people ripping around out there sans protection. Don't get hurt and ruin it for everyone, please. I'm asking nicel

We blinked and then it was busy, and then it got really, really busy. Not complaining by any means but if we look like zombies and smell like Tri Flow, well, now you know why! In other news the Rocky Mountain Element 950 demo bike and the Transition Bandit 29 demo are both built and broken in for your demoing pleasure. Call the shop for details if you would like to take one out. It's worth noting that both of the above bikes sport Rock Shox Reverbs . We can't help it, we're addicted to height adjustable posts! We also still have a very lonely Surly Karate Monkey in 18 " wearing some stunning grey paint as well as some BB7s, Salsa rims and a nice Truvativ Crankset . Someone needs to find it a new happy home out in the woods soon! $950 takes it home. Our Facebook page has a bunch of pics of the new bikes in stock, including the new Redline Metro Disc, the super affordable Rocky Mountain 29er hardtails and the trail bikes we're rocking this year. Over and out.

Last week we came back to work after a nice long break and we're ready to go! Apparently the local riding community is as well judging by the service work and general busyness around the shop. It could be the weather we've enjoyed this winter, or it could be that all the diehards just needed to ride all year round. Whatever the reason, we got you covered in 2012. Here is some pertinent info to check out as we roll into the new riding season. "The Basics" Free Repair classes: These are free classes, close to the start of the season (so you don't learn it and forget it), that cover the basics like flat tire repair, drivetrain maintenance, chain repair and basic wheel truing. The idea is to empower you so you can get home should anything (or a few things) go wrong. The classes are FREE and we give a 10% discount on all tools and supplies (tubes, patch kits, lube, etc..) bought after the classes. The dates are March 5th and March 12th, classes start at 6. Basically we
