A Bloomfield cyclist uses the new do-it-yourself repair station at Suffield’s rail trail parking lot. The handy facility, installed not long ago by the Farmington Valley Trails Council with support from REI, offers an air pump and a useful array of hand tools tethered by three-foot steel cables. Eight cars were parked there by Phelps Road that day, on a lovely Friday afternoon in late October.
