Happenings

We are starting to put together some dates for a possible swap meet near the end of september or early october. We are also putting together dates for mechanic classes sometime in late october through the end of the year. Class sizes will be small but they will be frequent. Classes will meet several times a week over a 2 or 3 week period. Contact us for prices.

Well we made it through another flood. We are open for business and ready to serve you. Speaking of serving you we have had lots of phone calls asking if we work on any bike. The answer is simple, yes. We work on all bikes from any shop. We are also welcoming patroons from other shops that have recently closed. You are welcome in our store.

We just picked up khs bikes and cruisers as well as pactimo clothing. Pactimo offers a custom program with a low minimum order with fast turn around. Check out the link.

Open tomorrow High Noon

We will be open tomorrow at noon for our post flood/ St. Patricks Day sale. Stop in for great prices on our new old stock items. There are pictures of a few items posted in the photo album.

We need your help

As you know the shop has been closed for several days and the power was cut off by lg&e for safety reasons. The shop has taken on very little water, this is good. The bad news is we still have bills to pay and product to sell. I guess we will have to have some type of flood sale. Stop in and pick up those items you need and help us make it through this rough patch.

You guys are the reason we are here. It has been a slow start to the spring and as you know this type of business is driven by the weather. We hope to see you soon.

Thanks
The staff of The Back Spring.

It's been awhile

As you know the shop has been closed for a few days. The river has flooded river road and I've had to close up until the river gets back within the banks. When I get the doors opened back up I will be ready to serve you.

In the up weeks and months I will be offering some new services and doing away with some old ones. One thing I am happy to announce is the repair class. Sign up in the shop or via phone. The class will be limited to 6 students and will run for an 8 hour period. The dates and times will be available soon. Contact the shop for all the info.

I am also working on getting the Cyclist Social resurrected in time for Thunder Over Louisville. My shop is a great viewing point and it has quick get away with little traffic. I'm working on getting the guy from last year to come down with burgers and hot dogs. Space and parking for this event will be limited so please let me know if you plan on attending.
