Bike Maintenance Workshop and Bike Drive
Louisville Public Library Meeting Room
Learn the fundamentals of bike maintenance and how you can upgrade your bike for comfort and efficiency. This workshop is for pre-teens and adults who want to make sure their bikes are in working order all year round without having to bring it to a repair shop for a tune-up. This bike workshop is FREE, but will be paired with a bike drive.
The Louisville Public Library and host Community Cycles are asking you to bring in any old bikes or bike parts, no matter the condition. The used bikes will be used for training volunteers on how to fix bikes, build new bikes, and rolling bike clinics that help fix bikes in low income neighborhoods. The bike drive component of this program ensures that this maintenance program is free for all who attend! Get a tax write-off instead of trying to sell your used bikes!
