Chris began by earning his bike at Community Cycles. He volunteers regularly and has participated in the Rolling Bike Clinics, North Storage, the Holiday Kids Bike Giveaway, and lately spends most of his time around the main shop. He has learned bike mechanics primarily through others at Community Cycles, but he also took a 6 week mechanics class and studies other resources such as bicycletutor.com and the Lennard Zinn Bike maintenance books. Chris has logged over 1000 hours volunteering at Community Cycles. He also has taken Spanish classes for nearly 6 years. Besides biking, Chris also likes to run.
