Each year, we receive around 300 bicycles from the community. We refurbish those that fit the needs of the community and donate over 200 bikes. The bikes that do not get refurbished are torn down for parts or used as training tools for our volunteers.
We deliver hundreds of person-hours of mechanics training each year through formal classes and informal over-the-shoulder training. Our ride programs also deliver informal training in bike handling skills and basic trail riding skills. Our formal classes are taught by our three League Cycling Instructors and focus on delivering the League of American Bicyclists’ Smart Cycling skills.
Our programs have cascading impacts throughout our community. The result is more people of all ages and abilities riding bikes for their mental health, for their mobility needs, or simply for joy.
