The Bike Church (Santa Cruz, CA, USA)
The Bike Church Community Bike Shop and Tool Cooperative
About
The Bike Church can help you get ready for a long tour or a cross-town commute. You can learn to fix flats, build and true wheels, adjust shifting and brakes. . . Anything you desire.
You need not be a mechanic to use the Bike Church's do-it-yourself repair facility; people of all aptitudes make use of the shop. Church ministers (mechanics) are there to help and get as involved in the repair of your bicycle as necessary. We encourage people to learn by getting their hands dirty - familiarize themselves with the machine that they rely on to get them from place to place.
Check out the calendar[1] for upcoming workshops and rides and come by during our open hours to have a look around and tune up your ride.
