Sacramento Bicycle Kitchen

We are a community of volunteers working to bring do-it-yourself bicycle maintenance, repair, and education to the people of Sacramento. We provide a space, tools, and staff to those interested in bicycle repair. Our shop is located at 1915 I Street in Sacramento.  We have operated in Sacramento since 2006. We are 100% volunteer-run and pay the bills through donations and paid services like classes and shop fees.   Please come on down during our regular hours.

Tuesday 6-9pm

Here is our wishlist

On Saturday, July 11 we will be hosting a fundraiser for Davis Bike Forth (formerly Davis Bike Church). They’ve got a shop and are doing well, but could use a little help from their Sacramento friends.

Come out for the music of Gillian Underwood and some DJ dance jams from our Davis pals.

Party starts at 6, music around 7. Come dance your pants off and buy some beer and sangria for a good cause!

Like most companies, we at the Sacramento Bicycle Kitchen offer our staff time and a half on Federal holidays like Independence Day.  Unfortunately, since our staff is entirely volunteer-based, time and a half isn’t quite as lucrative as we’d like.

So, rather than ask our volunteers to break up their three-day weekends by working at the Kitchen, we’re just going to keep the big door shut on Saturday, July 4.  If you can’t do without your Saturday fix of Scott, Mel, and all of our other wonderful volunteers, they’ll be back as usual on the 11th, and if your bottom bracket’s coming loose or your wheels are wobbling out of true, we’ll still keep our other shop hours this week.

In the meantime, take Saturday off to reflect on independence and freedom, particularly the independence and freedom you get from two wheels and a chain!

Many of you know John Gravois (he’s the tall guy with the tattoos). He found our new space, did most of the building and organizing, and has basically been keeping the shop running smoothly for the last 6 months.

Unfortunately, he’s leaving us. Join us to thank him for his help and curse him for moving to Los Angeles! There will be dancing, drinks, and probably a few tears.

Saturday June 27, 8:30pm at the shop.

Thanks to Alkali Flats, Poplollys and Stars and Garters for an incredible show, and to everyone who came out and made yet another wonderful party at the Bike Kitchen! Thank you to River City Brewing Company for the beer, Vicki for the cookies, and Ron, Ted, Sarah, Satapana, Chase, Danny, Scott, Beaumont and all the other volunteers who helped out!

Stop by SBK for June’s 2nd Saturday (June 13) and we promise you will not be disappointed.

Three amazing bands: Stars and Garters, The Poplollys, and Alkali Flats will be gracing our shop with their country jams.

This will prove to be an incredible show…one you will not want to miss. As usual, we will have jams, beers, bikes and unbeatable company. Join us for the best 2nd Saturday party in town!

Party starts at 6, music at 7.
