Mobile Shop
The Spoke is Mobile Too!
Early Fall & Late Spring Weekdays Throughout Campus
Updates are Posted to Instagram
Built from the ground up by our mechanics, our team launched the Mobile Shop in 2018. It’s a pop-up educational mobile bike shop, with all the benefits of The Spoke, found conveniently around campus.
Find us out in early Fall and late Spring, Monday through Friday around campus in high traffic cycling areas. Our own veteran mechanics built this great bike shop with generous funding from ATFAB. We couldn’t be more pleased or more proud. Check our Instagram or the schedule below for where we’ll be next!
