    Denise- you are such a cool cat! I wish I knew you in real life!!!
    Congrats on impressing the guys from Ibis (which I'm sure it's not unusual for you to impress everyone who meets you). Your shop rocks!!!!
    Congrats on a successful demo night!!!


    I've said it before, and I'll say it again: I sure wish we lived closer to each other so you could be MY LBS!!

    Great story Denise!
    If I ever get back to the States on holidays I will definitely be visiting your store.

    Sigh... so wish you were anywhere near here!
    Way to go -- this all pays off - now and in the future. Your customers can only love you guys! Hell, I love you guys, and I don't even know you!

    They probably get some dealers that are just like "Sure do a demo." A little extra is always fun. Sounds like a great time was had by all!

    Awesome! I've been wanting a Hakkalugi (isn't that the BEST name for a bike?!?) since I saw it on Fatty's blog, and now hearing how cool they are IRL, I want to buy a bike from these guys even more. And I really want to buy it from your shop if you'd include some of that yummy food.

    Alas, I am out of bike money and a thousand miles away. I can dream though!

    This is such a good thing for you and your business. Congrats!
