Help the Steve's Bike Shop Family After LA Fires

Steve's Bike Shop has been a legacy in Altadena, CA for over 40 years. It has served the mountain bike community as well as just about everyone else on wheels.

During the fire Steve Salinas and his sons ignored their own interests and safety in order to help save other people's homes. They saved other business owners' homes and structures under HORRIFIC high wind and heat conditions. Steve never thought of his own business. Only other people and their property.

Due to the fire, he lost his entire bike shop. Tools, inventory, and the building he rented. In exchange he fought to save the community he cares deeply about. I worry about his financial future after this loss and am asking for help. It is something he would NEVER do for himself. That is why I am asking for him.

My name is Kelsey Chapman and I've had the pleasure of being his mechanic for the past 11 years. He is more than my boss, but a mentor and a best friend.

Please help me help Steve. Altadena's original bike shop needs to stay in our community. We are far stronger with Steve here.
