In our sports-focused environment, stats and a visible team scoreboard are important. Here are a few of our Bike Shop goals, targets and current status:

  • 1098 hours to date out of target 3000 bike shop volunteer hours = 37% to goal
  • 475 bikes given out to date out of target 1500 = 32% to goal

We need 8 new Volunteer Mechanics.  If you know anyone who would be a great fit, please send them our way or have them email thekid@sportcentral.org.

We are working on various projects within the Bike Shop right now. Some of our goals include Parts Cleaning and Floor Epoxy. We had our friends at Storm King donate the use of a large Parts Washer with degreaser for a few weeks and it is doing an amazing job! Our previously oily and dirty bike parts, like derailleurs and chains, look like new! We’re going to defer our Floor Epoxy project until next November when our sewer and roof drains are fixed and cleaned first.

Bicycle donations have slowed down a lot and sadly, we have very few donated bikes to work on. We expect donations to pick up as the weather warms up. For now, our focus is on organization and our big Parts Cleaning project.
