Every Tuesday night – Refurbish bikes for both our Community & Holiday Bike Drives. Do top-to-bottom assessments and all needed repairs on 12″ to 20″ kids’ bikes. Great for all skill levels — novice mechanics are guided by more experienced volunteers and our Programs Mechanic.
Bike Teardowns: Sunday afternoons – Join us for a couple hours on Sunday afternoon from 2 – 4pm, following the Salvage Sale at our Warehouse Shop at 135 Schuyler St. This opportunity entails dismantling bikes to separate steel and aluminum components using a combination of hand and power tools.
Bike Cleanings: Alternating Wednesday & Thursday evenings – Help clean bikes to prepare them for production using hand tools, cleaning supplies, and shop rags. No extensive mechanical experience necessary! Cleaning nights will occur weekly to bi-weekly on Wednesday or Thursday nights depending on our class schedule, starting at 5pm at our shop located at 1700 NE Alberta St. Check out our events calendar for those specific dates.
