The Bike Oven is hosting a FREE maintenance workshop. This workshop will review the basic steps to thoroughly check a bike for safety prior to a ride, to check for necessary repair or maintenance, or to inspect a bicycle prior to purchase.
The class is open to all levels and no prior mechanical experience or tools are needed.
If you have a bike, bring it with you so you can learn to evaluate it. If you do not have a bike, shop bikes will be available to learn on.
RSVP is required. Please email workshops@bikeoven.com

On Saturday, Oct. 16, REI Arcadia will hold a bike corral to collect donations of bicycles that will be donated to the Bike Oven to further our mission. People who donate a bike will receive a 15% off REI coupon towards bike accessories (exclusions apply) and will also be entered to win a raffle prize valued at $100 retail. The first 15 people who donates a usable bike will receive a $15 REI Gift Card. Kid’s bikes will not be accepted.
More details are available here: REI – Arcadia
Of course, the Bike Oven always accepts direct donations of bikes, parts, tools, and supplies. But if you like shopping at REI, this is a great chance to help the Oven and get something for yourself.
So it’s the last week of the month again and you know what that means kiddies- Critical Mass time. This month, instead of just sneaking away from our jobs and families, here’s an official post to letcha know: We (The Bike Oven staff and Friends) are riding to CM as a pack from the Bike Oven. That’s right. Through months of careful traffic and terrain research, we’ve figured out a slick back alley route to the CM start point at Wilshire and Western. Anyone interested in joining us to ride out as a group is more than welcome to come. We meet at the Oven at 6 pm and ride out by 6:30 at a chill pace to get to CM smooth and on time. Our super duper top secret route plan does however include one brief stop at the Southwest corner of Echo Park (aka Glendale and Bellevue) for those of you not right on time or NELA enuff to start with us, we’ll scoop you up along the way.

This aint no twilight lucky for you. It is an armwrestle away as to the choice of the movie. Americathon or Idiocracy(i spelled that totally wrong
) which proves the point If Steve doesnt show up then we show Americathon. If he does show up we armwrestle steve for it. Americathon deals with a future with no oil everyone rides bikes and the goverment goes bankrupt and tries to raise money pulling a telethon, this movie was made in the 70′s yes, the precious 70′s where movies were nieve and predicted the future. why didnt our parents listen. Oh and meatloaf eats a whole car. George carlin narrates and Elvis costello is the prime minister. Come take a look at what they thought the future was going to be like in the 70′s.Pretty close. 6pm thankgiving for us and 7pm movie starts. popcorn and bring thanksgiving left overs and you get a burger king crown.
