Do-It-Yourself Member Hours and Volunteering: DIY Hours are on Wednesday evenings, 4 – 7 pm, and on Saturday afternoons, 2 – 5 pm. Pre-registration is required online using this form, or you can register at the shop with a staff member. DIY hours are for current Members, or you can purchase a one-day pass. Volunteering doesn’t require a membership, but you must pre-register using the online form.
Now’s a great time for you, and for us, to spiff up your bike if it needs repairs. We can sell parts or do the repairs for you. Or, if you’re in the market, you can purchase a bike (new or upcycled used).
Upcoming Events
- Women, Trans, & Non-Binary (WTNB) Workshops – The series of Tuesday Workshops in April were very popular. Take the WTNB survey to let us know what you would like to see in the future. We’re running a BiCi Membership drive right now to grow our membership and make WTNB hours a permanent addition.
- Sunday, June 26th – DominGo Hartford open streets and ciclovia. Join people biking, walking, dancing, picnicking, and having a great time on streets open to people, but closed to cars and trucks. This is the first of four DominGo Hartford Sundays. BiCi Co. will be there with bike rentals and a youth bike rodeo.
