VOA Workshop

CAM00514 b

It’s always fun to talk bike mechanics with kids and our recent workshop in May at the VOA emergency shelter on Preston Street was no exception. 

We met four nights in a row with with a group of 6 teenagers giving them insights into the wonderful CAM00536world of tubes, tires, chains, derailleurs and brakes. The final night focused on rules of the road, safety and biking courtesy.  

The kids were energetic and engaged, asking Seth lots of questions as he showed them how to work on the refurbished bikes they had selected from our shop.  

By the end of the workshop, they had acquired enough information to know that bikes are not just fun to ride, but cool to work on.
