Co-Facilitators Christina and Janni are ever-so-excited to announce our first monthly Pre-GRNE-Open-Shop GROUP RIDE at Recovery Bike Shop!  

Join us tonight at 2555 Central Ave NE for a little jaunt around our neighborhood's wonky streets.  

We'll take an 8-mile trip down NE lane to explore what infrastructure our little piece of Mpls has to offer, including a 2-year-old 'Bike Boulevard,' a few rare streets that cut through the entire neighborhood and the city's first 'bicycle-stoplight.'

Meet at 530pm, roll out at 550pm; a moderate beginner-friendly pace is planned.  ALL Women-Trans-Femme welcome!

After that, we'll end up back at Recovery Bike Shop (2555 Central Ave NE) at 7pm for our discussion and open shop night.  From 7pm – 730pm we’ll be quickly talking about over-the-road maintenance.  So bring in your bike and all of your questions to learn tips and tricks to keep from getting stranded on the dusty trail.

Oh, and you know there will be coffee.

From 730pm – 9pm we’ll have open shop to work on anything you like.  Do you have any projects you want to work on?

Hope to see you there!  90 DEGREES today, can you beleive it?!
