Bar Fly BikeĀ® doesnāt have a crystal ball to see how this will all turn out for 2021. We donāt have something clever or witty post but we remain hopeful. Our Bar Fly BikeĀ® /family is nothing but grateful for all the support and patience we have been shown by our customers in 2020. Bar Fly BikeĀ® pivoted and adapted almost from the start when we were asked to shelter in place. āØ
Counting our blessings. Itās been a joy to see the way cycling has been embraced by folks in ways we thought would never return. Some hiccups were unavoidable or out of our control. Our family business model comes from decades of designing and manufacturing bicycle components under American Cycle Systems aka ACSbmxĀ®. Bar Fly BikeĀ® is a part of ACS. The orders for Bar Fly BikeĀ® never stopped so we didnāt either. We just altered our business model knowing from experience this could be awhile before things are ānormalā again.
On the flip side, our hearts hurt for those who have been hit hard by this pandemic and the crazy events we seem to be witnessing almost daily. The time for posting and engaging on social media pivoted to making masks for local essential workers, taking in and caring for family, providing meals and helping those in need to secure mental health services in our community. It doesnāt mean we arenāt weary of staying in our bubble, exhausted from the fires which affected our home and business, or what not. Who has been through a pandemic before? We know we arenāt alone. āØāØCheers! This the 2020 Christmas card that never got around to being mailed. Stay safe, and keep your chin up. Bar Fly BikeĀ® will close up shop for a few days. Our thoughts are with you as we celebrate the holiday in our bubble and wish you a better and brighter 2021.
