Are you a bike mechanic or a cycling enthusiast with basic repair skills? Then you can be a Mobile Mechanic for Sunday Parkways! Your job is to circle the route keeping an eye out for bikes pulled over for minor mechanical problems-- flat tires, dropped chains, rubbing brakes. If you can’t fix it with patches, pliers or a 15mm wrench, point them toward the nearest bike repair tent and pedal on! You’ll need to bring your own basic tools (tire levers, wrench, pliers, etc), patches and pump.

• Fix flats, tighten brakes and make other minor repairs to participants' bikes
• Direct participants needing anything more than a minor repair to the closest bike repair tent
