About this event

  • 3 hours

Warehouse Bicycle Breakdowns are back! On Saturday, Saturday,MAY 4TH, the Charlotte Re-Cyclery (community bike shop program of Trips for Kids Charlotte) will be at 932 Siegle Ave, home of the Innovation Barn! We will breakdown and process bikes for parts reuse and metal recycling. These parts will go to rebuild bikes for our ride program fleets, our youth Earn-A-Bike bikes, and our bikes offered to the community through the Charlotte Re-Cyclery!

No experience is necessary as we explore the basic tools needed to disassemble a bike. The event will begin with a brief clinic on understanding the bicycle systems and how to take them apart, so be sure to be there on time! If you are younger than 16 years old, you must be accompanied by a participating adult.

Interested in participating? RSVPs are highly encouraged but not required.

***Please be sure to wear close toe shoes and clothes that you don't mind getting a little messy 🙂. You will need to complete a waiver to participate.***
