May Bike Fix-A-Thon

Bike Fix-A-Thon

Join us for our May Bike Fix-A-Thon! West Oakland and neighboring community members are invited to bring their bikes to our studio for a tune-up.

Regularly throughout the year at our Bike Fix-A-Thons, bicycles are repaired for free by a fleet of dedicated volunteers and Crucible staff members. During these five hour events, our volunteers and staff work to fix as many bikes as possible, getting Oakland residents back on the road with safe, functioning bikes.

We know what a safe bike can do for our neighbors, and studies show that extends beyond individual impact. Communities that bike are safer, healthier, and happier.

How to Get Here

The Crucible is conveniently located near BART and AC Transit. We encourage public transportation as our parking lot is small.

BART

From the West Oakland BART Station, exit onto 7th Street, turn right and walk 2 blocks east to Union (at the 2nd light). The Crucible is on the northwest corner of 7th & Union, at 1260 7th Street. To plan your BART trip, visit www.bart.gov.

AC Transit & 511.org

Parking

The Crucible has small parking lot that fills up quickly. Street parking is available on 7th Street to the west of Union. Please do not block the Union Street entrance marked in red, the 7th Street entrance, or the roll up doors. Do not park in lots owned by local businesses—they will tow your car.
