Felicidades Bicikleta Bike Shop 👏🎉

Owner Brenda Urias and her team were awarded $20,000 from the AMEX Shop Small Grant Program.👍

The grant can be used for operations, marketing, and community outreach. Brenda said a portion of the money for operations, but most of the grant will be used to promote and provide access to bicycling🚴🏽‍♀️ in the community.
