The Bike Repair Station (fictional)
Last spring, the Maple Street Library added something new outside its front door. It was a bike repair station. The station is a metal stand with a pump and tools on short cables. Anyone can use it for free, even without a library card.
Before the station opened, riders with a flat tire had few choices. The nearest bike shop is two miles away. Many children walked their bikes home. Some waited for a parent to pick them up.
Now riders can fix small problems right away. The pump fits most tires. A wrench and two screwdrivers hang beside it. A sign shows how to fix a loose chain in four steps.
The librarians counted how often people used the station. In the first month, about forty riders stopped to use the pump. By the third month, the count had grown to more than ninety. Mr. Ortiz, one of the librarians, said many riders come inside afterward to look at books.
The station is painted bright green. It stands next to the bike rack and a bench. Some riders sit on the bench and wait while a friend pumps a tire.
The library plans to add a second pump next year.
