    "#RepairMeetups are free community events where people come together to help each other fix everything from small home appliances to damaged textiles.

    They’re about celebrating under- appreciated skills and learning new ones, holding on to things that take a lot of resources to make but can quickly end up in landfills, and connecting with other humans. Experts, novices and curious spectators welcome!

    #BCM will be in attendance with #PortlandGearHub to offer assistance with a wide variety of common bike repairs, like brake adjustments, tuning gears, fixing flat tires, lubricating chains, and removing wobbles from wheels."
