Italian Bicycle Tire Brand, Vittoria Industries, Opens Boston Office

Got this in the email today.  Vittoria makes great product, and has been very supportive of local builders.  Check out their press release below.  Nice to see the growth in cycling bringing industry (and jobs) to the area.  I might be wrong but I think they might be moving in right down the street from Geekhouse bikes/HQ boston in the “innovation district.”  Would love to see that area become a bike business hub.

CommonWheels Hiring For Spring

Got this in the email, check it out!

————-

Hope all is well and you’re ready for that Spring Thaw!  I wanted to let you know that CommonWheels is looking to hire a couple of folks part-time for our upcoming season.

The complete descriptions/instructions for applying are attached, but here’s the gist.  We are looking to hire an Event Coordinator and Mechanic for our Open Shop program.  Open Shop is our flagship program, and basically involves setting up on the side of the road or at a farmers market, and helping people fix up their bikes for free.  We provide the repair stands, tools, and guidance on the basics of bike maintenance and repair, in addition to running more structured workshops.  The Event Coordinator is in charge of managing the Open Shop from wire to wire.  The Mechanic will take the lead on fixing bikes and instructions, and should recognize that this is not like showing up to a shop and wrenching on bikes for a while; the idea is to teach folks to fix their own bikes, as much as possible.

An application = cover letter and resume, emailed to [email protected], by Friday March 22nd.
