The Ken Parr Build a Bike

Who was Ken Parr? Click here to find out.

Volunteers build/ repair bikes from June-August (View virtual tour here.) You can bring a bike in for a tuneup or learn how to repair it at our shop. Our workshops are free and open to all ages. Volunteers donate 4 hours of time to maintain the build a bike and its surrounding areas in order to receive a bike, or give a monetary donation. In 2020 the shop was closed due to the pandemic. Since 2021 we have held virtual courses and met up for bimonthly workshops. We are always seeking volunteers and donations.

Stay tuned for more info.
