Need a bike? Need a tune up? On a tight budget? Attend the South Bend Bike Garage's regular Wednesday open hours from 5 - 8 pm. You can learn how to fix your bike, buy a bike for an affordable price, or earn a bike by volunteering! Not sure if your bike is road worthy? Stop by in the weeks before the Pride Ride to get your bike cleaned and tuned up so it's ready to go! Learn more here: https://www.sbbikegarage.com/
