Aaliyah and Nicole recently finished a few aprons (one of our intro to sewing projects) in Style Shop.  We already have quite a few aprons in Style Shop, so we figured they could use them over in Chopper and Bike Shop.  Here are some pics of our apron donation mission to Chopper Shop.  You can see how happy Matt and Will are with their awesome new aprons!

Dear Bike Shop Santa,

I have been very good all year! For Christmas, please ask the elves to make me some new tools.  I would like some crank pullers, 15mm combination wrenches, chain breakers,  and green and red spoke wrenches. Also, I have been wanting those hard to find headset/bottom bracket lock ring pliers for the longest.

Thank you, Santa!

Love,

The Bike Shop
