THIS PROGRAM IS CURRENTLY ON HOLD DUE TO COVID RESTRICTIONS
Overview
Our youth participants learn bicycle mechanics as they serve their community and work their way toward earning their very own bike. Along the way, they’ll [take group rides with staff mentors], learn customer service skills, and build confidence.
Basic repair skills youth mechanics will master:
- Identification and use of repair tools
- Fixing/Changing flat tires
- Adjusting brakes
- Adjusting shifting
- Lots of other cool stuff!
Completing our basic Earn-A-Bike program requires 12 weekly sessions of an hour to an hour and a half.
