Practical Cycle celebrated our very first birthday on Thursday, March 3, 2011 by expressing our gratitude to all of our customers who have supported our growth by spending their hard-earned money. We are also especially grateful to Granny Castleman and our landlords Bill and Dorothy Beale for believing in us, as well as Uncle Mike, Bill Leddy, Hanna Snider and Fletcher Cinder for all their hard work.
