Instagram post 18124159447049710 Fix Your Own Bike is tonight from 6PM-8:30PM. $10/hr suggested donation. Link in bio. One of the great things about bikes is that when it comes to repair, they are very simple. All of the moving parts are right in front of your eyes and ears. That's why we can help you with almost any repair in a couple of hours or less. All you need is smart advice, the right tools and some spare parts. We do this every Thursday night. Programming Note: Tonight's soundtrack will feature a vinyl records tribute to RUSH. Catch the mystery. Catch the drift. All bikes welcome. . . . . . . . . #my_athens #athensga #BikeAthens #FixEmAll #RideBright #thebikeistheanswer #wekeepheavymetalrolling #cycling #outsideisfree #roadbikes #bikesafety #ridesafe #bikesafety #cycling #mtb #mountainbike #mountainbiking #mtbiking #biking #freeride #bikes #bikelife #cycle #instabike #bikestagram #ride #keepoldbikesontheroad #26aintdead #whyAthensGA #ridemoredomore #keeppedaling

FYOB is for flat tires, brakes that need work, shifters that won't shift, and crooked wheels.

Programming Note: Tonight's soundtrack will feature a Static Shock Records suite with full plays of The Number Ones - The Number Ones (2014), Minima - Minima (2019), Sheer Mag - I Need to Feel Your Love (2017), and we will spin the vinyl machine to close the night.

If you bought bike for someone for the holidays, we can help you get it checked out and tuned up. If you bought a kid's bike from a box store, we can help you make sure everything is put together correctly. It has been our pleasure to help anyone in need of bike advice and repairs every Thursday night in 2019 and we'll be here again in 2020 to FYOB. Programming Note: Tonight's playlist will feature full plays of Cheap Trick - Christmas Christmas (2017), James Brown - Santa's Got a Brand New Bag (1988), and we will spin wacky Christmas vinyl to close the night.
