It’s bike season again, thank heavens—the time of year when everyone pulls out their road, mountain, fixed gear and tandem bikes and realizes one of two things: that there’s parts and gear that they need, or that there’s parts and gear that they don’t need. The Sonoma County Bicycle Coalition Bike Swap brings these two together for a big day of cranks, brakes, tires, clothes and even some bike-related arts and crafts. Need a 10mm cotter pin for a 1973 Motobecane? A Huret derailer for a mixte-frame Peugeot? A replacement fork for a 21-speed Trek? The Swap’s the place. With vendors and tables and a kid’s bicycle safety skills rodeo, it’s the best way to get your bike and riding skills in tip-top shape. If you’ve got an extra bike to sell, bring it along and put it up for sale for just $5. Stop on by and find some treasures on Saturday, June 13, at the Veterans’ Memorial Building. 1351 Maple Ave., Santa Rosa. 9am to 2pm. Free. 707.545.0153.Gabe Meline
