Say hello to Orlando 👋

An experienced mechanic, Orlando has been part of the Community Cycleworks team since early 2024. You’ll often spot him riding his Kona Ute cargo bike around South London, keeping things moving on two wheels.

Whether he’s lending a hand at our Saturday Bikefix sessions or sharing his expertise on our Fix-A-Bike® Courses, Orlando is always ready to help you keep your bike in top shape 👋 🚲

Meet Simon, Owner of @Sicobikes and our bike mechanic for Snodland Bike Club and Kent Bikefix.

Not only is Simon a highly skilled mechanic, but he’s also a passionate rider who truly lives and breathes bikes. He began riding in the early 00s with his first bike – a Mongoose Menace BMX. Inspired by legends like Martyn Ashton and Martin Hawes, he soon took an interest in trials riding, competing in events with Essex Trials Club across the South of England.

These days, Simon is a keen enduro rider, bringing his trials skills to the trails – though he’s still working up the courage for those gap jumps…

Be sure to say hello to Simon when you next see him

A massive thank you to our anonymous donator, you’ve made a huge difference to our outreach.

If you’d also like to support us in our work in helping to improve the lives of our future generations and provide them with these key skills, you can make a donation here - https://ccw.bike/donate

After the huge success of our first, it`s time for our 2nd Cardiff #Bikefix.

Saturday, 22nd March, 10:30 till 12:30. Just rock up and fix!

We were frantically busy at our last session so we know there is work to done here in Cardiff!

#CommunityCycleworks is excited to be partnering in Cardiff with Green Squirrel @bemoresquirrel at the Railway Gardens in Splott, to offer some taster sessions of our Drop in #Bikefix workshops.

These sessions are designed to help young people, and adults, who might otherwise struggle with the costs to repair their bikes at bike shops. We aim to empower, teach and support people to be able to fix for themselves.`

Nelson will be on hand to offer advice, and guidance to carry out basic repairs.

We are on a mission to empower more people, especially those that are typically under-represented within the cycling community, to have access to a bike, the skills to repair, and the confidence and opportunities to ride more.

Looking forward to seeing this gain even more momentum than it`s already gained...

It’s time to meet Hayley, our London Operations and Workshop Manager 👋

Hayley is a global bike traveller who bikepacked from the UK to Australia – that’s an insane amount of mileage.

She is a super-mechanic who loves teaching people how to fix bikes and enjoys the stoke of riding fixie, mountain bike, road…anything really that involves fun on a bike.

Hayley leads our Friday #Bikefix sessions at our Portland Street Workshop in South London and ensures that all of the sessions run smoothly, whether workshop based, outreach or youth club. She also supports our Fix-A-Bike® workshops teaching children their first basics of bike repairs and coordinating everything behind the scenes. (Not a small task!)

This year, we’re looking forward to offering some of our young @snodlandbikeclub riders valuable work experience at our Community Bikefix events.

It’s a great opportunity for them to showcase their talents and attributes to the community.

A huge thank you to our very own @bmxsam2023 who joined us for the first Community Bikefix of 2025 at @coopuk Cuxton.

Beyond our London Bike Fix sessions, we took our tools on the road.

In 2024 we supported 29 community events and youth clubs and helped 402 people, young and old, learn to repair their bikes. We can’t wait to continue this work in 2025 and upskill more communities.

👀 Keep your eyes peeled on our social platforms for our upcoming locations.

Get to know Mike, Founding Member of @SnodlandBikeClub, head of IT and our website and Organiser of the Kent Projects 👋
Mike is a road rider mainly, committed bike commuter but loves the road racing thing too. Not so handy off-road (generally comical to watch him on a mountain bike). Bike coach, trainer, mechanic. Mike gets such enjoyment out of seeing young people riding bikes, for either sport or fun…and adults too. You’ll see Mike at the #SnodlandPumpTrack most Tuesday’s, so be sure to say hello to him the next time you see him.

Say hello to Seb one of our London workshop mechanics 👋🔧

Seb is a highly skilled mechanic, ride leader, mountain biker and everyday rider with a passion for teaching people. He has an almost encyclopedic brain for bike parts and components and a substantial collection of early mountain bikes from the 80’s and 90’s. #retro/vintage

He is integral to many of our workshop activities. He falls off the most too - because he is like a big child on a bike and plays around pushing his limits.

Our longest serving member of the team….since 2016!

🚲 How to manual…

Not only does a manual look pretty cool but, can help you navigate obstacles like small roots or bumps, whilst maintaining your momentum and flow, especially when you want to avoid losing speed or getting your front wheel stuck.

Give it a go and tag us in your videos - but be sure to cover your back break and wear a helmet in case of looping out!

📷 A huge thank you to @actionjackson.n for filming this tutorial for us.
