Travel & Parking
Biking - riding your bike is preferable :-) There is a bike rack in the back room and a bathroom to change in if need be.

Parking passes are kept inside the door. Please take one and place it on your dash for the duration of the course.
What to Bring
- Your bike - if you have a bike to work on, please feel free to bring it. If you don’t have one that’s okay too, there are a number of bikes to work on at the school.
- Laptop, tablet - if you have one you can bring, that would be very helpful. There are computers to use for accessing videos and technical documents, but having your own is better.
- Comfortable closed toed shoes. The floors are concrete so make sure you're comfortable standing for a good part of the day. No flip-flops, sandals, etc. You're going to drop a heavy tool on them at least once!
- Clothing - shirts and pants/shorts that are okay getting dirty. You will be provided shop aprons, but they only do so much. No loose scarves, sleeves, etc.
