Bike Mechanics needed for GoByBike Week Stations across Metro Vancouver
Go by Bike Week is a week-long event that encourages people to cycle more often. During the week HUB runs Celebration Stations, high-energy pop-up stations across Metro Vancouver where the public can receive cycling resources, free snacks, and bike maintenance.
We ask mechanics to to perform this basic bike maintenance and spend 15 min max on each bike to ensure everyone is road safe during the week.
HUB will pay a stipend of $75 for every two hour shift, and will provide a bike stand, bike pump and a HUB T-shirt. You will need to bring your own tools and any promotional materials you’d like on display.
The responsibilities are as follows:
- Put bike in the stand and do a safety check.
- Basic adjustments including air, brakes, chain, lube
- Diagnose if there are any larger issues that should be taken to a bike shop
- Each bike should take a maximum of 15 minutes. Especially at busy stations, this ensures that every participant who stops by gets their bike looked at while also avoiding overcrowding.
