We are open on Wednesday evenings from 5-8pm
As a fully volunteer-run organization with lots of demand—please be patient, kind, and prepared for a wait. We’ll do our best to help everyone who stops by!
During open hours, we accept donations and offer refurbished bikes for sale, a public repair space, and help from skilled volunteer mechanics.
Please check in at the front desk when you arrive so we can get you where you need to go!
Our Earn-a-Bike Program Is Temporarily Paused
Due to limited volunteer capacity, we’re not currently able to operate this program. If you’re interested in helping bring it back—through volunteering, funding, or other support—please reach out!

Providing facilities, tools, and expertise for public use for the purpose of repairing bicycles, along with the opportunity to be paired with a skilled bicycle mentor
-
Sponsor, hosting, and/or participating in events and activites related to cycling, promoting inclusive access

Providing safe, working bicycles to those in need through our Earn-A-Bike program
