Spokeland is a volunteer organization that teaches people how to fix their own bicycles. Volunteering for us during our open hours will help volunteers meet people within their community, and allow them to teach others how to fix their own bicycles while building community!
We are open 6pm-9pm on every Tuesday and Thursday.
We are open 1pm-6pm on every Sunday.
For those interested in volunteer orientation and more general bicycle background, we are hold closed shop hours for volunteer training every Monday 6-pm-8pm.
We have a meeting or an open house every Sunday from 6:30pm-8:00pm.
We are also only open 11 hours a week! If anyone is interested in any time of nonprofit or education based goal, we would like to help empower you to do this, and we have the space for it. Please contact me and let me know what you have in mind, and I can take the idea to our board of volunteer members.

Mission Statement
Spokeland is a nonprofit, community-driven bicycle cooperative that aims to reach out locally and foster Oakland unity. We support the use of bicycles as a viable means of transportation as well as a healthy recreational activity. We are focused on providing a safe and fun workspace for people of all ages, ethnicities and cultures, genders, sexual orientations, and skill levels. We offer bicycle safety and maintenance education in an environment that helps to build knowledge, empowerment, and self-reliance for members of our community.
Description
We offer open shop hours where volunteers are available to guide you through fixing your own bicycle. We have been open and serving Oakland for 7 years. Many of our members have worked at similar coops throughout California, and we are excited to bring this kind of workshop and service to Oakland and serve our neighborhood. We are a volunteer run consensus based organization, and we would like to involve more community members and organizations.
