Public-Use Bike Repair Stations
Biking on the Eastern Shore can be an idyllic experience. Meandering down the back roads, flying past corn fields and woods, exploring to the end of the necks to view the waters of seaside or bayside can be a peaceful, soul restoring journey on two wheels.
In the land of hospitality, we want your experience to be a pleasant one.
So, if you get a flat or are in need of a hex wrench we've got you covered.
Northampton County has provided bike repair stations that let you fix your bike for free.
Bike repair stations can be found along the Southern Tip Bike/Hike Trail, Exmore Town Park, in Cheriton outside the Town Hall/ DMV office and in Nassawadox in front of the Northampton Free Library. More bike fix installations are in the works for other points in Northampton County.
Each station is equipped with a bike mounting seat, a bike pump, and a set of tools (screwdrivers, wrenches, tire levers, and hex keys) to make repairs easy and convenient. It's also ADA compliant.
