The first iPhone was announced in 2007. Since then, smartphones had become the new standard from cellular phones.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

With smartphones, we are now able to connect with our friends and real time, watch our favorite movies anywhere and purchase items online just with a few swipes of the fingers. The world became more convenient and accessible.<\/p>\n

Most retail companies rely on their online store rather than the physical stores. It is not a secret that Blue Lug is not an exception.<\/p>\n

\nThis is the only photo of the warehouse\/online crew \ud83e\udd7a (there are way more employees now)<\/p>\n

We fortunately have so many online customers worldwide now and the business doesn’t seem to stop. We are very grateful that we get to work with what we love and spread the love for bicycles to the world with our experience.<\/p>\n

I would like to appreciate YOU on behalf of the online crew.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

We finally finished our annual stock taking and the online store is officially back! Thanks for your patients.<\/p>\n

Other than our customers, there are people who we cannot thank enough and that would be the shipping companies. If it wasn’t for these guys, we wouldn’t be able to offer our randomness to the world.<\/p>\n

\n\u2191This is me with a cool Fedex fleece I found in the thrift store<\/p>\n

I’ve always liked shipping company uniforms. Most of them have reflectors and I always thought they’d be good riding gear.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

so I made these. I played around with some of familiar colors on our messenger bags. Messenger bags are originally bags that were born in the bicycle messenger culture.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"The silver tape in the middle are all reflective.<\/p>\n

Our elevator at the warehouse is finally fixed! Yay!<\/p>\n

I don’t know if you are a fan of wearing bags when riding a bike, but you can check out all the special color-ways from the link above. These are online exclusive, so you can only get them online. We do not have these at each stores.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

We’re giving out these tech-towels until around the 11th in every order, so I hope y’all can find something you need on our website!<\/p>\n
