III. SUNDAY, 6/15: A2SF Bike Pavilion

5-8 PM, Ann Arbor Summer Festival "Annex" Tent, Ingalls Mall

Coming up in 1.5 weeks--we'll be converting the A2SF Annex tent into a Bike Pavilion of sorts, featuring the following:

• CC Repair/Maintenance Pop-Up (open repair-support and/or skillshare stations)
• DIY Retroreflective Vinyl Decals (municipal-grade!) w/ Wolverines-on-Wheels
• Screening of The Loop of Pain, Dir. Jen Proctor's 2023 short film about Ann Arbor's bandit MTB loop.

Please sign up if you'd like to lend a help as a mechanic or apprentice, skillshare instructor or assistant, or to document the event via some captured-and-digitally converted photons -

IV & V. TUESDAYS, 6/17 & 6/24: Bike Nights @ A2SF

5:30-8 PM, Ann Arbor Summer Festival (Near Burton Tower)

Common Cycle's supply of tools and supplies will also be available at the Summer Fest's two Bike Nights this year.

Though still a couple weeks out, it appears we could use a few additional volunteers for both sessions; feel free to sign up below if you're interested and have a sense of your availability (or would like an excuse to visit the Summer Fest) -
