Mission

Sacramento Bicycle Kitchen is an organization whose goals include providing low-cost transportation, self-sufficiency through bicycle maintenance, and safety through education. Our volunteers operate a community-based bike shop in Sacramento, CA.

Sacramento Bicycle Kitchen is a community-centered bike shop run by volunteers with the focus of providing low-cost, alternative transportation for Sacramentans. By providing affordable bicycles and classes, we promote cycling as transportation and bring empowerment to members by enabling self-sufficiency through knowledge of bicycle maintenance.

Diversity

Sacramento is one of the most diverse communities in the nation. SBK is an organization that is committed to creating an environment that is free from bigotry and hate. Discrimination will not be tolerated and we try hard to maintain an open and safe environment for all. If you encounter someone that goes against this policy please bring it to one of the core volunteer’s attention.

Ethics

Everyone at the SBK is a volunteer, but that doesn’t mean we are a bunch of amateurs. Volunteers are expected to abide by all laws and ordinances while at the shop or at a SBK event. Discounts will only be given according to the rules of the organization. No exceptions.

Went to the SFG meet, greet & eat @ Jack's Urban Eats downtown.

Then headed out on a killer ride through downtown, river bike trail and Sac State. Here are pics from the ride thanks to andron.

How we roll...

The boys and I really have a blast riding our bikes!
Last summer I got into riding fixed gear and really having loads of cheeky monkey fun. It hurts when I fall!
