When you were inside during the hailstorm on Saturday, a group of volunteers, led by Kim Whitney and Neal Armstrong, moved some of the Community Cycling Center’s office by bike. We hoped it would take a few hours ended up being an all day affair. What can we say? We were optimistic.

Now we are settling into our new office in the Heritage Building at 3934 NE MLK. Our DSL connection is spotty, our files are still in boxes, our server is not yet fully accessible, but we are SO HAPPY to be in our new digs. The place is simple, but beautiful. We have windows! When I can upload pictures I will put a few on the website.

Meantime, the shop is making its own changes.

The office we occupied will soon be torn down so we can move mechanics over to focus on building bikes for our programs. If you want to see the work in progress, swing by and say hi in the next week. The shop changes will be mostly complete by the end of April.

Thanks to everyone for your help, patience, support, and encouragement. This is a big change for the Community Cycling Center. We look forward to more great work and more safe bicyclists!

Sometimes you just need a little orientation. That’s why we created free drop-in clinics, which will be held every weekend morning through the summer.

Starting this Sunday at 10am come on by for an hour of bicycle safety education. One of our talented staff will provide an overview of assessing your bicycle for safety and showing you which repairs are easily addressed at home with basic tools and which ones require a skilled mechanic.

We started these clinics because we are committed to make bicycling accessible to everyone. Plus it helps us fulfill our mission of broadening access to bicycling and its benefits. Join us this Sunday at 10am for Bike Basics. Starting next Saturday we will hold a clinic in Flat Tire Repair. Bring your bike and join us!
