Do Your “Part”

Our summer event schedule is busier than ever! Communicycle uses a LOT of repair parts as we help kids fix their bikes (especially tires!). Did you know, we get nearly every repair part by recycling parts from other bikes, donated by people that have parts they no longer need?

Corbin's Kindness Chain

This spring, Communicycle has been distributing bikes to kids and adults who request them, in exchange for an act fo kindness in their community. This is Communicycle's effort to see more kindness in our communities. We are calling it the "1,000 Acts of Kindness" campaign. It's fun to fix bikes and give bikes new homes, but it's even more fun to hear how the kindness is being paid forward- especially when we hear a story like Corbin's.

My story

Communicycle began organically when we were asked to repair a bike by the grandson of a lady we were building an access ramp for. The next day, this boys friends came along and asked us to fix their bikes.

This need in our community inspired us to try something new, and one connection after another, Communicycle came to life.
