Generations of Bicycle Knowledge
Family Run Bike Shop in Welland for over 30 years…
Thornton's Cycle & Sports has been serving Niagara's cyclists since 1988. A family run business with over 30 years of experience. Owned by Greg Thornton with Greg's son Kenny and daughter Amanda, who is the 3rd-generation of the family to be in the bicycle business. Greg learned the trade from his father, William Thornton, who owned Norman's Cycle & Sports in St. Catharines for 35 years. He carried on the business for many years with his sister Gloria Hiebert who has since retired.
It’s been over 30 years of business but we continue to grow and adapt in the industry and truly enjoy helping customers enjoy the same hobby we do. Greg loves to keep busy working on bicycles and enjoys the occasional bike ride and Kenny is active in riding, participating in local races and many past races in the Ontario Cup Series. Amanda has also found a love for cycling, enjoying leisurely rides with family and staying healthy spinning on the trainer. The years have been filled with a love of cycling, bicycles, and happy customers that have become friends. This year we are excited to be launching the bicycle season at our new location to better serve our customers. We welcome you to visit our store at 21 Seaway Drive in Welland, where you can browse new bicycles, bicycle clothing, accessories and parts. We look forward to seeing you soon!
