Get to know your new e-bike at our community event in Pittsfield!

MassBike invites you to join us for a community event in Pittsfield for the e-bike voucher participants on Thursday, September 18 from 5:30p-7:30p, at Hot Plate Brewing. This will be an open discussion geared toward getting comfortable with your e-bikes and joining fellow e-bikers in a group ride around downtown Pittsfield. This event is be part of the Smart Cycling series, which focuses on teaching the principles of safe riding in traffic, developing bike-handling skills, and the essential do-it-yourself maintenance to keep your bicycle rolling safe and smooth. 

Where: Hot Plate Brewing, 1 School Street, Pittsfield MA 02101

When: Thursday, September 18, from 5:30p-7:30p

Who: The E-Bike Voucher Recipients 

The event will be three parts (join for as much as you can!):

• discussion of bike safety + traffic principles
• hands-on maintenance practice
• short group ride around Pittsfield (weather and daylight permitting)

Please bring your bicycle, if you can, so you can practice basic maintenance and join our group ride. You will also need weather-appropriate clothing, your bicycle helmet, close-toe shoes, and probably bicycle lights.

RSVP is required so we can make sure we coordinate the space, provide further details for logistics, and provide enough snacks for everyone. We hope you can join!
