📣📣📣 Friends!!! Tomorrow, 🌟November 21st🌟, is the final day for open hours at Red Hook this year!!!
Roll on in for our last day in 2021 & we'll give you the space, put tools in your hands, and lend you our know how, so you can wrench your bikes to keep riding through winter. We will pause public core programming from Thanksgiving into the new year!

#tbt❤️ to last Sunday when Deeni finished tuning up her bike with final adjustments to a new front friction derailleur and Benjamin came in to tru his wheel! Us volunteers are already slowly reorganizing the space for easier accessibility when we reopen to the public next spring 🌱

A lot of happenings this past Sunday: the NY marathon, the rogue rides before the race, and of course, open hours at Red Hook! 🚴🏻‍♀️🏃🏽‍♂️🏃🏾‍♀️🏃‍♂️💨 Faces new & familiar rolled in to work on wheels, recabaling derailleurs, readjust breaks, and swap crank sets from one frame to another! And a small party to organize small parts began too :)

Let's #turnbacktime to our last few volunteer nigh

Let's #turnbacktime to our last few volunteer nights before it got so cold 🥶🥶🥶
Lots of wheels turning in action, from Savanna & Sofia checking tubes, to patching flats, and Alex turning pro on the truing stand! Lizzie & Heidi working on swapping out a cassette and Nick working steadily on a very frustrating Peugeot headset while helping Em out with their bike!

We have open hours at our Red Hook location tomorrow 11-3pm, stop on by and ask our volunteers with a pink name tag about how to join Volunteer Nights! 💕 See y'all soon :)

Thanks to y'all who came out in the rain for Red Hook open hours last week! Despite how soggy we all got, good vibes were in abundance & look!! We even sold a bike!! 🌈
Swing by again Sunday 11-3 at 98 Dikeman, it's gonna be another lovely day 🤩

Volunteer nights were lit, quite literally- with h

Volunteer nights were lit, quite literally- with head lamps, phone cameras & new flood lights! We worked on adjusting Jeffery's cantilever breaks, replacing Alex's wheel after a crash, and Alexandria tightened her cassette! Special thanks to Nick for his knowledge & patience :)

Volunteer nights help us gain a little more mechanical skills so we can help y'all during open hours (it's also really fun & we get to work hands on to figure things out together)! 🛠⚙🔧

Friends, neighbors, New Yorkers!, lend me your ear

Friends, neighbors, New Yorkers!, lend me your ears! 🗣
Open hours last Sunday at Red Hook was 🔥🔥🔥! We sold not one, but TWO bikes! Lots of wrenching happened too: re-cabling shifters & breaks, fixing derailleurs, cleaning and changing cassettes, installing new fenders, and probably our first time having someone *disassemble* their bike to pack & ship! We also had a nurse from Maimonides show up with her bike that we built in 2020 bike buildathon!

If you missed last Sunday, stop by this week at Red Hook 98 Dikeman St 11-3pm!
