For riding in the streets! A picnic and group ride through Arts Alive!

Update! No potluck! (Bring your own snacks.) Saturday August 7th. Bocce Ball court at 5:00 and then group ride at 6:15 to Arts Alive where we’ll stop and check out galleries and mural making. @thejeffersonproject (where the Bocce Ball court and Bike Kitchen are located) is a no-alcohol, no-smoking area.

We remain closed to the public for the time being but are accepting donations and selling refurbished bikes by appointment. You can keep an eye on what bikes we have available on our Craigslist page here: https://humboldt.craigslist.org/search/sss?userid=223518213. If you depend on your bike for transportation and have an emergency repair needed, you can also contact us for drop-off repairs.

Thanks to all the folks who donate the bikes we fix up and get back out into the community. Here’s some recent matchmaking.

  • You may know Thom from Redwood Raks @redwoodraks where he likes to cut a rug swing dancing. He’s also on their board.
    For the last year, with no dancing, Thom’s had a lot of extra time to help us out at the Bike Kitchen.
    Thanks Thom!
