How do you stop that annoying clicking sound as you pedal fast on your dad’s old bicycle? Yup, you’ll probably need the bearings replaced in the pedal. Yup, the pedals have bearings (who knew?). Nope, you don’t have to spend a fortune on something new.
Look no further than RecycleCycles in Kitchener, a Community Bicycle Resource Centre. Loads of cheap parts for you to sift through (seriously cheap), as well as refurbished bicycles.

In her thesis, Sonia Yuan proposes an ideal ‘post-post-Fordist’ society, a city envisioned as a dense, heterogeneous construct, whose post-post-Fordist urban intervention is presented as a bicycle factory in the city of Toronto. The proposal endeavours to lift us out of the industrial exploitation of the last century, while providing a relief from contemporary society’s over-saturation of digital technology, to return the machine to its rightful place as an intuitive extension of our bodies. Sonia will defend her thesis on Thursday May 12, 2016 at 4:30 pm in the Loft Gallery.
The Unwind Fiber Arts Club, originally called the UWSA Knitting Club, was started in Fall 2014 by a group of graduate students who shared a passion for knitting and an interest in learning new textile crafts and techniques. Unwind is currently looking to expand its knowledge of textile crafts and would love to learn more about the fiber talent at UWSA so if you have a skill that you'd like to share such as leather working, bookbinding, embroidery, etc. then we will use all of our resources and experience to help make your workshop happen!
