Our open shop has been getting so so big. On average we have about 30 of you all visiting each Thursday. We only have so many adults available to instruct, so what makes this possible is youth teaching youth. Once one person masters a technical skill, it’s their job to communicate that information to the next person. This community of shared skills is a beautiful thing.

Thank you all for coming we love you all, please don’t skid on your fixies in the shop 😭 See you next week

Thx for the photos. Sorry to do that last one to you 😂

Thank you to everyone who came out to Alebrije Night last Friday! It was so great seeing y’all and having a final community get-together to close up the year ❤️‍🔥

This month, we also had an exciting project created for ’s annual Gathering of Communities (GOC). Our teens built a blender bike, on which people had fun making smoothies 🍊 The project served as a fun, immersive demonstration of how cycling isn’t just a mode of transpo, but also a source of stress relief, liberation, connection, and more.

The blender bike is now housed in the shop, and you can expect to see it at future events to come (:

Come out to our end-of-year celebration/fundraiser tomorrow! Here’s some fun sneak peeks:
1: A teen mechanic painting his bike in preparation for the art gallery
2: A screenprint of our soon-to-be NEW logo, designed by one of our youth (blurred so that there can be a big reveal soon 🙂‍↕️). The new logo will be on t-shirts we’re selling at the event!
3: 240 feet of festive lights we’re putting up
4: A coffee cup cozy and hand warmer crocheted by yours truly, to give away

Can’t attend? You can still show your support! As a nonprofit, we rely on contributions— we need your help to provide a free, all-welcoming space for everyone sharing a love of bike mechanics. Your donations this year helped us launch youth programs, free repair clinics (where we fixed 130 bikes!), and other crucial community resources. Every donation counts— even just $5 🩷
