What began with such promise would run into reality when after selling 30 bikes, he attempted to request the remaining 20 but was told the shop had gone out of business. With no money and no additional bikes, Alden was forced to put his dream of Homestead Bicycles to bed and move on with his life.Fast forward 23 years later when one of his original Homestead bikes surfaced on a BMX collector website, stoking the curiosity of an online community into just what happened to Homestead and that mysterious green frame from the 90’s. Encouraged by the newfound interest in the brand, an older Alden sets out on a path of discovery to find the people who were impacted and inspired by his unique bikes.30 Bikes The Book is part indie-film journal, part small town kid makes good, and part cautionary tale.
