Bicycle Maintenance Workshop Now Available in Schönwalde II

In the heart of the Schönwalde II district, a new bicycle repair workshop has recently been established at the neighborhood and community center SchwalBe. This workshop, funded with 12,000 euros from city funds, was selected by a citizen vote at the "Day of Decision" last year.

The workshop is open every Friday from 4:00 to 6:00 PM and offers a repair station for cyclists to fix their bikes, even outside of opening hours. This workshop operates separately from the one at the Klex youth center in the city center, which is run by the ADFC on Wednesdays from 4:00 PM.

At SchwalBe, cyclists can repair their bikes themselves or seek assistance from an honorary worker from the Children's Protection Association, who adheres to the principle of "help for self-help." This means that while the worker is there to provide guidance and support, the aim is to empower individuals to fix their own bikes, fostering a sense of independence and self-reliance.

The workshop in Schönwalde II was initiated by local community efforts, although specific details about who exactly initiated it and its financing were not found in the provided search results. However, its presence is a testament to the community's commitment to sustainable and active transportation.

The on-site repair station at SchwalBe is a valuable addition to the existing public bike self-help workshops in Greifswald, providing a convenient and accessible solution for cyclists in the Schönwalde II district. Whether you're a seasoned cyclist or a beginner, this workshop offers a welcoming environment for everyone to maintain and repair their bikes.
