It’s that time of year – our summer employment grant is winding down and that means Emily Washburn will soon be on her way back to university.  This Thursday will be her last day of employment.

We’ve been very pleased with Emily’s work for us this summer!  Emily has done a tremendous job; she learned all the tasks quickly, on top of keeping of top of the cash system she’s taught us a thing or two, she’s been great with members and customers, and she’s learned a lot about bicycle maintenance.  Very impressive!

If you’d like, you can drop by the shop to wish her well in the new school year, thank her for her work here.  Even though Thursday is her last day, we’ll be having a wee celebration at 7:30 Wednesday evening.

Thank you, Emily, we’re going to miss you!

On Saturday June 22, between 9am-noon, Cycle Transitions will be having a clearance yard sale on bicycles, here at our location 390 King St. W. in Cobourg!

The purpose of the sale is to sell those bikes in our back stock ‘as-is’, meaning that we have not fixed or refurbished them since they have come in. We want to pass them on to other bike enthusiasts who would take them on as personal projects. They will be offered at clearance prices $10 – $50. In addition, we will be putting out some accessory bike parts alongside the bicycles.

For more information, you can contact us by phone at 289-251-8895, or by email at cycletransitions@gmail.com. Come on out and support us!

Cycle Transitions is excited to introduce our new summer employee, Emily Washburn.  Thanks to a Canada Summer Works student employment grant, we have been able to hire Emily.  Emily, already a member of Cycle Transitions, is a student at Trent University, and lives in Cobourg.  She begins her employment next week Monday, June 3.

With the hiring of Emily, we are able to once again extend our summer hours giving you more opportunity to come in and work on your bicycle.  So, our new Summer Hours  (beginning June 3) are:

Monday to Thursday – 3pm to 8:30pm
Saturday – 9am to 2:30pm
As always, we are closed holiday weekends.
