Our South Community Bike Workshop will be closing permanently at the end of the day on Sunday June 16th. The shop was consistently bustling, but the building changed hands last year and its new owners were unwilling to sign a new lease without a substantial rent increase. We hoped to relocate nearby, but a search found no suitable affordable spaces. This came during a challenging financial time for Bike Edmonton, and after much discussion and analysis, our Board of Directors concluded that we must consolidate operations out of our downtown shop.
Bike Edmonton has been in the news this Spring! Plus, we’re kicking off Bike Month in June with a fundraiser at Metro Cinema. And ... we're hiring bike tune-up mechanics and changing our shop fees, membership fees, and course fees. Check out the Spring edition of the Bike Edmonton newsletter to find out more.
