In Portland, we have customers all year. It does decline a bit in the winter though. Currently we're still running our "summer hours" schedule. Unless a volunteer drops their hours, it seems like we'll keep them going as long as possible. Many people come in to the shop for fenders, new brake pads and to clean their bikes during the rainy months. Bike Farm has had winterizing programs in the past, but we don't currently have one in the works for this year.
Current schedule:
Sun: 12pm-4pm
Mon: 4pm-9pm
Wed: 4pm-9pm
Fri: 12pm-4pm
Sat: 12pm-4pm
Women&Trans Nights: 1st & 3rd Tues/month 4pm-7pm.

It gets real cold here in Ontario through the winter and while February is quiet, we do keep the shop open for our regular hours year round. We also try to offer additional winter programming like winter cycling skills workshops and DIY winter bike gear (making studded tires and fenders)
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday 5-8 and Sunday 2-5
Cheers,
Tegan

We keep our hours the same in at MoBo Cincinnati. We also run a winter workshop series, how to commute during winter, and short winter rides. Administratively, we offer our core volunteers an opportunity to go through mechanic training to improve their already incredible skills. This year we are offering a woman-only, woman-taught six week bike maintenance series.

One of our goals is to be known as the commuter bike shop in town. We believe that cycling and bike commuting are year round activities. We'll keep busy with open shop, Earn-A-Bike, classes, retail, workshops, building sale bikes, meetings and shop set up.
Our Fall/Winter hours are Noon-6p.m. everyday except Wednesdays.

Ride On!

In warmer months, we have Open Shop 3 days a week - Wed/Thurs 6-8pm
and Sat 12-4pm. Once the snow flies, we change that to Open Shop on
Saturdays and Closed Shop on Wed/Thurs 6-8pm. Closed Shop is just for
the volunteers and lets us fix up the bikes we've collected over the
warmer months, work on building repairs, and the like.
