Youth Hone New Skills at Scarborough Cycles


This past month, another five youth graduated from Scarborough Cycles’ Earn Your Bike program. Over eight weeks, the youth worked with our hub coordinator to repair used bicycles that have been donated. They learned how to fix flats, replace brake cables, clean and adjust gears, and much more. This summer’s class were helped by previous participants, who have become stalwart volunteers at both our bike hubs. Together, they were able to repair seven bikes – one for each of the five participants to keep, and two more which will be donated to SATEC @ W.A. Porter Collegiate Institute’s bike club.
