First Friday Coffee Is Tomorrow!

It's cold out there and Hawk football is on a losing streak so it must be October!
Please join us at our Parisian sidewalk café on your morning commute tomorrow between 7:30 and 9:30 and let us discuss what could be done for cycling culture in Iowa City with just that football team's travel budget! Copenhagen of the Midwest on 2!

Fix a flat 101 tonight at 7 p.m.

I will teach a quick class on how to fix a flat tonight at 7 p.m. Women and GLBTQA folks are encouraged to attend as this will be a supportive environment. If you would like to attend please email e.v.fleck at gmail.com. The class will be capped at 10 participants. There are currently 8 people signed up. If the class fills up tonight or you can't attend because of your schedule, don't worry, I will teach this class again as soon as possible. -Erin

Rental Bench - Sunday 2 to 4

Rental Bench will be this Sunday from 2:00 to 4:00.

What is rental bench? For $5 an hour you can use the bike library's tools, books, and equipment to tune up or repair your bike. Rental bench is free for Environmental Advocates, Bicyclists of Iowa City, or Bike Library volunteers.

One caveat: volunteers on hand may or may not help you with your wrenching, so the risk is yours!
