Jewelry & Craft Workshop on March 4th
Want to get your craft on? Come down to the Bike Co-op on Wednesday, March 4th from 6:30-8pm to make crafts and jewelry out of bike parts! We'll have all the materials you'll need and will have several examples of earrings, pendant necklaces and clocks that you can copy and make your own. This is a "make one, take one" event (for most items), or for a small donation you can just make some cool, upcycled stuff for yourself! #upcycle #jewelryworkshop #craftworkshop #ColumbusIN

Senior Project bike ride supports Bike Co-op
One of the highlights of 2017 for the Columbus Bike Co-op was North Senior Charlie Allen’s senior project bike ride.

The Guide to Mountain Biking Prep
We all know the rush of riding a bike at top speed as the wind flows through our hair, inhibitions suspended. It’s majestic, and for most of us, we can’t get enough of that feeling. This is just one reason why embarking on a mountain bike expedition is a phenomenal idea.
