Squeaky Wheel Bike Co-op

The Mother's Day / WTF crossover couldn't have gone better 💁🏻‍♀️

Q***r Intersections 's Emily was all smiles sharing skills and getting her literal flowers 💗

The Squeaky Wheel Bike Co-op in-house volunteer mechanics, Tracy and Jayme, had an equally great time assisting participants with their spring tune-ups—bikes out of storage and onto the magical outdoors 🌲

Congrats to our three new London Cycle Link members! Discounted stand time and stock at the co-op, a vote at the AGM, and big-time cycling community vibes are some of the many perks. We hope to see you at the Forest City Slow Roll in June 🐌

Ride more, London!

Team Squeaky Wheel Bike Co-op had a wonderful time cranking out the Ks in support of Sanctuary London's 2nd annual Trekking For Home Road Races.

The rain held out while we were out there, so pleasant rides, runs and walks along the TVP were followed by a lively community barbecue at Talbot Street Church.

Whether it's registration sheets, bibs, pins, signs, balloons, distance markers, snack stations, a hot grill or a great facility—none of those things manage themselves. Big thanks to our team captain Jude, Sanctuary London's executive director Darryl and every single volunteer who made today's event a reality.

Our has a large population of unhoused folks who deserve dignity, welcoming and support. If you're able to, give today:

All proceeds go to programs that many of our neighbours depend on.
