Help Somerville Bike Kitchen Extend It’s Hours
Written by Boston Biker on Nov 16From The Email
———-
Somerville Bike Kitchen is looking for additional staff members to help run the coop so that we can expand our open-shop hours. In exchange for agreeing to host open-shop hours once a month and a fee of $18 per month, SBK staff get key access to the SBK bike repair space. You also get to help us shape the future of the bike kitchen. Each SBK staff agrees to serve for a minimum term of three months. No experience necessary.
SBK is a cooperative bicycle repair space located near Davis Sq. We currently hold open shop hours once a week on Tuesdays from 6-9pm at 339R Summer street. If your bike is misbehaving, want to use our truing stand, or just want to hang out and talk shop, bike on over and say hi. All are welcome!
Please check our website for our next bike-in movie night and our first repair workshop!
