VOLUNTEER AT THE “BIKE PROJECT” IN TRIGGIANO

 

 

Volunteering at The Bike Project is a great way to learn more about cycling and bike repair, as well as meet interesting people and give back to our local community.

Mechanics

All it takes to become a volunteer is a willingness to learn and help others. While some of our volunteer mechanics start out with good background in bike repair, many of our volunteers have started knowing little more than how to change a flat tire (if that!). As a volunteer, you will have the opportunity to learn through an apprenticeship model: if you don’t know how to do a repair, you can learn by watching a more experienced volunteer. Before you know it, you will know how to make the basic procedures that make up the majority of our repairs.

Greeters/Register

Don’t want to wrench on bikes? We need people who can introduce visitors to our shop, show them bikes available for sale, and help with operating the sales register. No mechanical skills required, only a love for bikes!

Art & Design

We’re always looking for people with ideas on how to beautify the shop and/or create some cool signage, as well as graphic designers to help us with our print media.

Email us at          if you want to get involved.

Shop Work Days and Special Events

We also have special work days to organize the shop, and have events each year that we’re involved with. If you can’t make a regular commitment, but want to help when it works with your schedule, keep an eye on our newsletter, Facebook, or Twitter to see what’s going on.
