OK, my cats who are holiday broke, nervous, crazy, riding around this winter in the dark with frozen hands on stretched chains and bald tires. You're not buying your holiday gifts at Walgreens.Take that Sharpie and write Saturday Dec. 12th and Saturday Dec. 19th somewhere on your body or sneakers, so you remember to stop by the shop on both of these days and attend the Wheelgirl Bike Shop Holiday Bonanza 11-6 rain or shine.
We are going to eat cupcakes, at the cupcake bake off on Sat. Dec. 12th; drink free coffee, deal on all bike components, and buy all of our cool artsy and craftsy holiday gifts for $10-$30. On Sat. Dec. 19th, we are going to eat food made with Stonehouse Olive Oil, drink more free coffee, and buy more inexpensive and unique gifts. Sure you can go stand in line all day, in the dark, away from oxygen and sunlight, on the cement floors of Costco or Target, to buy her/him yet another thing with a plug. But why?
Makers of Arts & Crafts: If you want to be a vendor at the Wheelgirl Holiday Bonanza, send an email to service@wheelgirl.com. (Look to the left under the logo, and click on the email link.) It's $10 each day for a 4-to-6 foot table and we'll figure out how to make your table of treats fit. We like supporting makers. Kind of late notice. But I'm kind of a cat of the moment. You've got a week to get it together. We'll keep your veins filled with coffee.Bring it!
Another cool event poster by cyclist and graphic artist Dalton Crosthwait. Photo of recycled bike part jewelry designed and created by employee and cyclist Bryan at the shop. Yes, copy cats, Bryan took all the pins out and paired the linking plates. Check out Dalton's other work at design + motion at www.monstrodesign.com
