After Ray left we hoped in the van and headed over to the Durham Bike Coop. We at lunch once we arrived and when we were done the Bike Coop was open and ready for our help. First we got a tour of their workspace and a run through of what services the Coop provides. We then got to help them break down old bikes to salvage the parts for future use or the scrap yard, depending on the condition of the bike. This was a lot of fun and a lot of learning and we couldn't have done it without the help of the Bike Coop staff. The were patient and helpful. We got greasy and learned a lot about bikes in a short time. Here are some pictures from the day.
As you can see we were busy.
We would like to extend our thanks to Leslie Peteya for setting this up with us and everyone there who helped us with breaking down the bikes. This was a great experience for the teens.
