Here’s a nice note we received from a “long distance” customer…

Adam, Tarbell & Mike, I just wanted to take a moment to thank you guys for helping me with my recent MTB purchase. As you know, I checked out many different bike manufacturers/models and had decided on Jamis.

I live in the Atlanta area, and could not find a any dealer in or near Atlanta that had a single Jamis bike that I could look at. After widening my search, I found your shop and I really appreciate the fact that you guys went out of your way to arrange for a bike to be available for me to look at. Not only did you go out of your way to help me put a set of eyes on a bike, you were extremely helpful throughout the entire purchase process and continued to go above and beyond after the sale and helped me tremendously with finding the right setup.

For me, it was well worth the drive from Atlanta, even with today’s gas prices, to know that I was getting exactly what I wanted.

Thank you!
Mark R.

There is a MAJOR mountain bike race in Chattanooga on Sunday, June 29.

It’s an American Mountain Bike Challenge and South Eastern Regional Championships event. This is a major regional and national points series race and as such will draw racers from near and far.

The ‘Coon has gotten some major press over the last couple of years, and word of mouth reviews are also very positive, so look for a huge turnout for this race.

Not sure what the course will be, but it’s likely going to be the “big loop” — just the main trail. Still, there’s a lot of awesome technical and fast downhill stuff on that loop, so it should be a fun race for the riders and spectators. Add the easy accessibility with the ring road around the top of the mountain, and it will be an epic venue for mountain biking.

Don’t miss this opportunity to check out a real mountain bike race… they don’t often occur this close to town on a course that is so easy to access for spectators.
