2010 Kids Holiday Bike Give-Away #boulder from Community Bike Share; story and video
Dec 12th
The Kids’ Holiday Bike Giveaway is simple- all year Community Cycles takes in donated kids ’ bikes and puts them in a storage space. Starting in early December, we host “work nights” and volunteer mechanics work to get the kids’ bikes ride ready. When the day comes, we move the bikes over to Indoor Cycling. Meanwhile, we have been reaching out to the community in December to let needy families know that they can come get a free bike for their kids for the holidays.
Once the big day comes and the bikes are all ready to go, families line up at the door and get a number. There is a waiting area where refreshments are provided, and when their number is called, families come and select their bike(s). Kids do a test ride and get a final safety check on the bike and are ready to go!
To get one of 300 refurbished bikes
The parent or guardian of a child 10 and under must bring the following on the day of the event:
Each child’s most recent report card or birth certificate. There is a suggested donation of $25 per bicycle.
We will accept a birth certificate in lieu of report card for children not yet school-aged. If you have neither, a $25 fee will apply for each bike chosen.
How can you help
Donate Old Bikes
Each year we give away about 300 bikes all of which have been donated to Community Cycles. If you have unused bikes please drop them by our shop BEFORE the event during open hours.
