Repair stands and tools are a limited commodity

Purchasing patrons have first priority
- “Purchasing patrons” are those repairing their Cave purchased bikes or upgrading their current bikes with Bike Cave stock.
Sign up for time on a repair stand when all stands are occupied
Limit of 1 hour stand time when there are other students waiting, (signed up), to use a repair station.

Flow Riders

Come ride with an all female group around the city. We can have long routes or short routes all depending on our group that day. We will be having a Potluck and Ride at least once a month at The Bike Cave. For more information:
