Hi Lynette

In NYC we have a huge apple store. Maybe if you ask
them in advance they will let you do somthing there.

You are welcome to use every dusty corner of my shop
but, it is a folding bike shop for a reason!

If you can give me a date and an idea of how many
people maybe I can look into a place for you.

Do keep me posed
