Yes, we are having a bike-back-to-school sale from Saturday Aug. 29th through Sunday Sept. 7th. Anyone with a student ID of any sort gets 10 percent off of locks, lights, messenger bags, backpacks, bike caps, and Wheelgirl-branded apparel. We do have some great bags from Reload, Soma, Knog, Jaand, Basil, and Chrome. We have Cateye and Knog lights, and we have a ton of U locks from Kryptonite and OnGuard. Also, included in the sale are Campagnolo, MKS, Sugino, Nitto, and a ton of the cool world championship colors and retro bike team caps, like 7-11 and Panasonic. And of course, you can save 10 percent on any Wheelgirl American Apparel zipped hoody, t-shirt, or track jacket.
The gear is great. And ten-percent savings adds up on a pricey-but-well-worth-it bike bag. Also, in the case of Chrome bags, if you don't see the exact Chrome bag you want, we can order it for you, and you will still receive the discount. However, as much as I like the great gear, I really like the bike-back-to-school ad campaign talented Dalton, Wheelgirl bike shop employee and graphic design student at Expression College, designed and created with his friends Santiago, Vaughn, and Erika. Here are some of the "Need a lock?" ads Dalton and his friends made one evening. If you ride a bike, and you are caught without your lock, you know the feeling. Stop by the shop this weekend. It should be a happy circus. Thanks Dalton, Santiago, Vaughn, and Erika for truly making me feel your lockless pain and for making me grin.
