A couple of friends of mine wheeled over to Lincoln's Bike Kitchen this past Wednesday to size up a recently donated bike and the tune up it might need. Lincoln's Bike Kitchen is a community resource of skills, parts and education aimed at helping people learn how to fix and fix-up their bikes with the help of volunteer mechanics.
Once inside my friends noticed a back window of the two-bedroom house smashed in and a two-year accumulation of about $1000 worth of bike tools, purchased through community grants, gone.
A list of stolen items can be found here.

Please help us to spread the word.
You can also donate cash or replacement tools by contacting lincolnbikekitchen@gmail.com or stopping by the Kitchen (1720 S. 15th St. in Lincoln) from noon-4 p.m. Sundays or 5-9 p.m. Mondays. If you're donating cash, you might consider marching that up to Open Harvest Coop just up the street. It sounds like Open Harvest has a collection box and, as a good neighbor gesture, the Coop will match donations up to $500.
