If you don’t already know, a bike kitchen is a community space that holds weekly “shop hours” to provide people with bike stands, tools, and cheap or free spare parts to fix their bikes. One or more trained or self-taught mechanics staff the shop hours, though they are mostly there to keep track of tools and equipment, and offer pointers. The objective is for cyclist DIY and not like a full service shop. Bike to the Sea’s Bike Kitchen will be constructed using reused shipping containers and located on the Northern Strand Trail in Malden adjacent to Canal Street.
Check out the following animation, featuring a fly through of the proposed design!
Insurance policy is locked in. Our lease is signed. We will start retrofitting the containers in March!
