Capitol Cycle

Lloyd Newbern agreed to sell Capitol Cycle Company to a nice friend named Jack Banks who was a Delta Airline's pilot and had taught Lloyd to fly. Shortly thereafter Jack moved the shop, now selling Rollfast bicycles, to Poplar St. Although now a business owner, Jack continued to fly for Delta Airlines and later worked at the Macon Telegraph. Concurrent careers are an impossibility for most people, but not for Jack Banks. Without ever taking a salary he dedicated fifty years of his life to Capitol Cycle Company, establishing the foundation for what would become a multi-million business.
