Frameworks
Frameworks is our 250 page modular youth development and bike mechanics curriculum. Our vision is to create a just world where young people are empowered and engaged in communities that foster understanding and participation and encourage the health of people and our planet. We provide opportunities for youth to learn, lead, explore and challenge themselves and each other.
Consider making a gift to Bike Works to help us continue producing educational materials for all to enjoy for free! You can also purchase a hardcopy of Frameworks on our web store.
Sew Your Own Face Mask
When Bike Works Senior Program Coordinator, Ricky, isn’t teaching bike education classes for youth in the community, he’s running his own small business, Toast Tea Threads (https://www.toastteathreads.com/) selling hand-sewn cotton & wool cycling caps! Now he sets his talents on a new task: sewing masks at home to keep yourself and others safe. #staytoasty
