Cycletastic Community Bike Shed

Cycletastic is a voluntary community project managed and supported by local people who aim to broaden access to cycling. The project was started in 2006 by Josie Warshaw, and originally operated from a disused theatre scenery dock belonging to the then Mecca owned Kilburn State Bingo Hall.

The project has evolved over the years; providing basic bike maintenance sessions - that focus on educating local people of all ages to maintain their own bikes - whilst providing a mainstay bike repair facility and assistance to people of all ages and backgrounds, including low incomes and other varying hardships. Through effective engagement with local people the project has enjoyed support from Brent Council and the local Police service.

The bike shed at Streatley Road NW6, was installed in April 2010 and operated for a series of Summers' as an outdoor drop-in bike maintenance facility with a permanent volunteer base.
