The Great Coconut Grove Bike Day is almost upon us, the whole Grove will be shut down Sunday, April 26. I know a few merchants are concerned about every street being closed, but it seems that that is how it will be.People coming in from out of the area will have to park in the garages and hopefully take it by bike from there or hoof it. (That's Ellen, the clairvoyant's bike at left).
Merchants are being asked to participate in a big way. For one thing, the Merchants Group is asking that every merchant and business in Coconut Grove offer 10% off that day. You can do it on everything or just certain items or foods or drinks.
It's a great way to also market businesses. Water can be sold with ads on them, like a string, holding a flyer or coupon.
Another important thing is for merchants to open early. The event starts at 9 am and many places usually open at 11 am. But it might be a great idea to open earlier on Sunday so as to accommodate the very large crowds which art expected. Details here.
