Bike Ride!!!

We are cordially inviting all family and friends of FTS Gallery to jump on their bikes and take the Gnarly Adventure with us from FTS to West Haven tomorrow, Thursday August 20th.  Everyone will be meeting at the shop by 730pm promptly.  For further info- click the link to the facebook invite here--- http://www.facebook.com/events/245379668915767/

We are taking a fairly chill route down New Haven Ave in Milford and West Haven and will be cruising beach points and boardwalks whenever possible.  This is not a race so don't hesitate to tag along, we'd love  to have a whole gaggle of "peddlers."  We are stopping at Georgie's Diner on Elm Street for a victory meal.

See you manana!
