365 Things to Do in Memphis #90: Build Your Own Bicycle at Revolutions
Where's the fun in going to a store and picking out a pre-made bicycle when you could build one yourself (and learn the art of cycle maintenece while you do it) at Revolutions?
The shop started in 2002 as a way to provide bicycles to neighborhood kids. Now, it's a fully functioning bicycle shop staffed by volunteers.
Before you can build your custom bike, though, you have to put in 10 hours of volunteer work at the shop, separating donated bicycles, learning mechanics or helping others with their bikes.
Here's the full low-down on Revolutions.
