Hours of operation:
October 1 to March 31: Tuesday and Wednesday: 6pm - 9pm. The shop will NOT be open on Thursdays for the winter.
April 1 to September 30: Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday: 6pm - 10pm.
Volunteer-Only Sundays: 3pm - 6pm. That's right - Volunteers Only! No sales or do-it-yourself repair (we will still take in donations). Effective Nov. 1st, change in structure of this shift! Please read complete details here.
Please note! Each shift at our shop is staffed by a volunteer "Head Mechanic". We make every effort to be open during our posted times, but there are the odd occasions when the Head Mechanic is not being able to attend the shift for whatever reason (and could not find a replacement on short notice). We appreciate your understanding if this happens, and apologize for any inconvenience it may cause. That said, when you are using our shop please feel free to say Thanks to our core volunteers! They are giving their free time to help meet the needs of the Ottawa cycling community.
Location and directions: (NEW ADDRESS!)
477 Bronson Avenue (between Gladstone and MacLeod), Ottawa, Ontario
Directions: we are on the east side of the street, so...
- By bike: From east of Bronson take Percy to MacLeod and head west (it's a one-way street). At Bronson we are just to the right, on the other side of Jak's Restaurant. From the west, Bronson is not that fun to cycle on, so get to the Gladstone intersection and walk your bike the half-block.
- By bus: Both the 85 and 14 serve the Bronson / Gladstone intersection
- By car: there is NO parking on Bronson (permanent No Stopping zone), so due to the one-way streets use Gladstone / Percy / MacLeod.
