πŸ“– πŸ“š Thank you Oak Park Public Library for having us host a Community Bike Fix-it Event! Our volunteers fixed over 20 bikes, teaching the owners about bike maintenance along the way and we collected a couple of used ones. Of course we had to bring out our Exercise Record Player Bike, which was a hit!

If you are interested in having Working Bikes at your event you can reach out to us at [email protected]!
