E-BIKE BIZ BUZZING IN BROOKHAVEN
The pandemic didn’t put a dent in ElectroBike Georgia, which has seen such a spike in demand for the motorized two-wheelers that owner Eric Hunger is expanding his Brookhaven shop into the retail space next door. “Bicycling of all kinds has been booming as people are looking for ways to enjoy the outdoors while still staying distanced,” says Hunger, who opened Atlanta’s first full-service e-bike shop in 2016. “Electric bicycles give people of all ages and abilities, especially families, the ability to bicycle together.”

BUCKHEAD GALLERY TAPS INTO TECHNOLOGY
Want to curate fine art photography for the home or office virtually? There’s a free app for that, courtesy of Jackson Fine Art. Users can select an artwork from the gallery’s vast global inventory and snap a picture of their space to install, size and custom frame a favorite piece on their iPhone or iPad. “As a curator and dealer, I relish the experience of visiting my collectors’ homes and intimate spaces, learning about their personalities through the choices that they have made in each room,” says Anna Walker Skillman, owner and director of Jackson Fine Art. “The new app allows art lovers to become curators themselves.”
