Fellow List Members -- I would like to introduce you to "The Hub" -- you can read about this new bike co-op below, but let me tell you some things about the guys starting it up. Ben, Sean, and Joel are hard-working, idealistic young men whom I've know for a few months. They have not only helped many people get bikes working again, but have also helped people get into rebuilt bikes at affordable prices. They work hard to support themselves and this new venture. Young entrepreneurs at work right here in good old Minneapolis!
Check out the grand opening if you are able. Also feel free to call or stop by the Hub to see how you might get involved. Buy a bike, have repairs done, donate a frame or parts, or have them sell something on consignment for you.
