We had another workshop today at Kerry's on overhauling bottom brackets. Messed with a pretty rusty Schwinn (I think?) that had a one piece bottom bracket, cleaned and greased 'er up. Thanks to Bart for leading the workshop.
BIKE EVENTS! Just a few...
- CRITICAL MASS! A bike ride on the last Friday of every month (May 29th this month) that meets by the Sunsphere on Clinch at 5:30 pm. Critical Mass is a mass bike ride with the mission of spreading bicyclist awareness in your city. It is a relatively easy ride around downtown Knoxville; sometimes we venture to south and north Knoxville and usually lasts around an hour or hour and a half.
- Beach Party Ride - May 2, to kick off bike month, all riders welcome! Meeting in Market Square @ 11 am - 2 pm and riding around to homes/businesses to pick up beach items around town. Will reconvene at Market Square stage and have a "beach party."
