-Kara Gratzek, Bozeman Bike Kitchen-
This February 2nd at Eagle Mount and Zoom
The Bozeman Bike Kitchen is a fun cooperative cycling hub, empowering and educating the Gallatin Valley by refurbishing bicycles and promoting safe cycling for transportation and recreation. This Presentation will be an overview of their mission, their community programs, and the ways in which they serve the Gallatin Valley Community
Kara Gratzek is an experienced professional mechanic who believes in breaking down barriers to entry in the world of bike mechanics. Her passion for bicycles started early: as a young teen she could be found tinkering on her and her friends' bikes in the garage. She grew up in the Minneapolis area, and got her first job in the bicycle industry at 18. She's now working as the shop manager of the Bozeman Bike Kitchen, where she can tinker to her heart's content.
