On Sunday mornings I fix bicycles at the local community center for free, we just charge the price of materials.
For me is like Zen meditation, it makes my mind focus on one simple task in these crazy times where our attention span is all over the place. And it's good for our community since most of the people that come there are broke college students, families having a hard time and in general people who want to spend time together. Our group is always growing, I'm expecially proud of two kids, children of immigrants, who came to learn from us two years ago and now managed to save enough money to open their own bike repair shop.
