LIFT Bike Project Refurb Nights
Feb 8 2012 - 19:00 to Apr 27 2012 - 9:00 PM - 51 Shepard St. - Cambridge, MA
Learn to restore bikes!
The LIFT Bike Project, an organization dedicated to donating refurbished bicycles to homeless and low-income residents of Cambridge, Boston, and Somerville, will kick off its 2012 “refurb nights” February 1st. Every Wednesday from 7-9 PM, volunteers will gather at Quad Bikes
(http://www.quadbikes.org) to help fix up bikes for a giveaway on the Green Streets Initiative’s April Walk/Ride Day, when 100 people will become the proud new owners of a great set of wheels. Refurb nights are both fun and a great way to meet a range of people with a passion for community service and biking. While no mechanic experience is required, volunteers should come prepared to learn something new. Whether you’re a refurb night veteran or hearing about this opportunity for the first time, come on down – everyone is welcome. For those who can’t make it to refurb nights, there are other ways to help. Maybe you have an old bike lying in your basement – LIFT would love for you to donate it. Please feel free to contact Ben at liftbostonbikeproject@gmail.com with any questions, or visit liftbikeproject.blogspot.com.
