Cicloficina is a community initiative that blends informal mechanical assistance with the promotion of urban cycling. Operating as pop-up workshops, these sessions are hosted by volunteers who bring their mechanical expertise to various locations throughout the city, fostering an engaging street life and strengthening community bonds. These temporary setups not only enhance the autonomy of bicycle users by teaching them maintenance skills but also animate the urban spaces they occupy, often transforming them into hubs of activity and learning.
