May is New Haven Bike Month y'all -- come out and make sure your bike is greased up and ready for all the cool things happening this month! ♥
Chainbreakers is a WTF-only night (see below) where cyclists, commuters, or bike enthusiasts interested in fixing bikes can get together and support the community, hosted at the Bradley Street Bicycle Co-op. Our intent is to get more WTFers involved with bicycle culture, foster our community, and learn from each other without the atmosphere of a traditional male-dominated bike shop.
Bring your own bike, ask us about bikes, or just come hang out and learn with fellow bicyclists. Whether you are looking to fix a specific bike problem or just want to have a better understanding of bike maintenance, we want to figure it out together. Alternately, maybe you just wish you knew more WTFs to ride with? Us too! Come hang! We can talk routes, make plans, swap stories, whatev! ♥ We usually have some snacks and bevs and encourage this to be a potluck-style event.
See you there!
