Learn to Fix Your Bike (Biketober Workshop Series #1)
October 1, 2026 5:30 PM - 7:30 PM
Greg Poole, Jr. All Faiths Chapel, 1030 Richardson Dr, Raleigh, NC 27603, USA
Want to learn how to maintain your own bike or just understand how bikes work and how to fix something in a pinch? Join us for one of our bike maintenance workshops! We will cover essential bike maintenance, including fixing a flat, chain care, brake adjustments, and more. The October 1 session is open to everyone, and the October 8 session is reserved for women, trans, and femme participants.
Bring your own bike if you can, or learn using one of ours. Come ready to get your hands a little greasy. You'll leave with greater confidence in your ability to handle whatever happens out on a ride and the distinct honor of becoming the person your friends call when they get a flat.
Registration is free and opens 2 weeks prior to the class; sign up here.

CANCELLED DUE TO WEATHER - 50 Miles for 50 Years Greenway Ride
CANCELLED DUE TO WEATHER - 50 Miles for 50 Years Greenway Ride
October 4, 2026 9:30 AM - 3:00 PM
John Chavis Memorial Park (505 Martin Luther King Jr Blvd, Raleigh, NC 27601, United States)
Did you know that Raleigh’s Capital Area Greenway Plan was officially adopted in 1976? Celebrate this historic anniversary with Oaks & Spokes on Sunday, October 4th, beginning at 9:30 am from Chavis Park for the second iteration of our 50 Miles for 50 Years greenway tour! We’ll be launching at one of the oldest segments in the system and exploring some of the newest sections along the way.
Not up for a full 50 miles, or can’t meet us until later? Jump in with the group at four designated join points. We’ll end back at Chavis Park between 2:30-3pm.
We anticipate this ride will have a 10-12 mph pace, and we’ll make sure the group stays together and no one is left behind. Bring snacks, water bottles, sunscreen, and basic tools. While the majority of the ride will be on paved greenways, there is a 1 mile uphill section of gravel road (Turkey Creek trail) in Umstead State Park that connects the Old Reedy Creek greenway to the west Crabtree Creek extension. This road is wide and typically very smooth, but occasionally shows erosion damage or sand. If you aren't as confident on unpaved surfaces, consider joining us for a different section of the ride
Itinerary:
8:15-9:00am (Optional): Join us beforehand for breakfast/coffee at Transfer Food Hall!
9:30am: Depart Chavis Memorial Park (northern parking lot; 600 Chavis Way, Raleigh, NC 27601)
10:30am: Join point - Anderson Point bathrooms (15 Anderson Point Dr, Raleigh)
11:30am: Join point - Shelley Lake greenway junction off Millbrook Rd (35.855949, -78.659868)
12:15pm: Join point - Shelley Lake greenway junction off Millbrook Rd (35.855949, -78.659868)
1:00pm: Join point - Crabtree Creek Greenway parking lot (4924 Ebenezer Church Rd, Raleigh)
1:45pm: Join point - Restrooms at the southern end of the NC Museum of Art parking lot (2110 Blue Ridge Rd, Raleigh)
2:30-3:00pm: Return to Chavis Park!

Learn to Ride @ Lion's Park
October 10, 2026 9:00 AM - 11:00 AM
Lions Park, 516 Dennis Ave, Raleigh, NC 27604, USA
Register here!
This free bike skills program is designed for kids to learn the most important lesson of riding a bicycle: Balancing independently! We'll use games and skill lessons to practice in a safe and fun group environment. This class will be most appropriate for kids who can confidently walk/jump/talk, follow basic directions, and who don't already know how to balance a two-wheeled bike. Generally, we find that kids ages 5 and up are ready to learn to ride, though we welcome all ages.
Participants will be provided with one of our balance bikes (a bicycle with no pedals or training wheels) and a helmet, if they need one. We'll put pedals on the bikes as children master balancing. You are also welcome to bring your child's own helmet and bike, which our mechanics will convert to a balance bike for you for the duration of the class! Please bring a refillable water bottle and wear closed-toed shoes.
This event is held in partnership with Oaks and Spokes, a non-profit dedicated to transforming Raleigh into a city where walking and biking are safe, accessible, and integral to everyday life.
