Sharebike Opening Night 025

 

The repair station will be open to everyone! Just come into the community bike center at 513 S. Jefferson St. and sign in. You’ll just need some identification and then you’ll be given access to the work area.

We’re also going to provide repair classes monthly. If you don’t know how to fix your bike, come to a basic repair class and learn!

The bike station is available on a first come, first serve basis and can accommodate two at a time.

Hours of operation will be Monday – Saturday, 11am-6pm.

It looks like magic. A bike traveling at the right speed will steer itself–popping back up when it starts to fall. But why?
