Seattle Century – July 31, 2010
The folks at Good Sport Promotion are coming to Seattle once again for the third Seattle Century Ride. The Seattle Century is a fully supported catered tour about Seattle. You'll ride through some of Seattle's most scenic areas on quiet rural roads, along well-marked routes and through the gorgeous fringes of our magnificent city. Once again, Bike Works is a beneficiary for the ride. Learn more or register to ride at www.seattlecentury.com.
Tour de Fat – July 31, 2010
Yes, it’s that time of year again to break out your costumes, decorate your bike, and come celebrate New Belgium’s annual bicycle festival, the Tour de Fat! The event will again be at Gas Works Park. The bike parade will depart at 11am and return at noon for an afternoon of performances and fun. Once again Bike Works, along with the Bicycle Alliance of Washington is a beneficiary for the event. There are lots of fun volunteer opportunities, so please email outreach@bikeworks.org if you are interested!
Summer Cycling Celebration – August 29, 2010 – noon-5pm
Join Bike Works in celebrating cycling, summer, and our community! In conjunction with Seattle Parks & Recreation’s last Bicycle Sunday of 2010, we will be throwing a party complete with bicycle games and contests, music and entertainment, demonstrations and more! The event, held in the Park/Parking Lot near Lakewood Moorage (along Lake Washington Blvd, where Adams St ends), will bring all sorts of people together for a fun afternoon, and we’ll have a little bit of something for everyone. There will be music and entertainment interspersed with cycling demos and exhibits, and we will also have some fun bicycle contests. More news to come... We hope you can join us!
Volunteer Repair Parties - Join Us Thursday Evenings!
Thursday evenings from 6:30pm to 9:30pm, Bike Works hosts a drop-in bike repair party. Come on down and wrench with us, drink with us and snack with us. The bikes we repair during these sessions are donated to Treehouse, Farestart, other local non-profits, and our annual Kid’s Bike Swap. The volunteer repair party is an opportunity for mechanics of all skill and experience levels to practice bike repair in a safe, non-judgmental environment free of charge and support Bike Works at the same time!
