Safe Routes to School - Community Cycles supports schools in the Boulder Valley School District (BVSD) Safe Routes to School Program in various ways including:
- Bike Swaps - Throughout the year, Community Cycles hosts bike swaps at local schools. Community Cycles provides 10 or so "seed bikes" to start off the swap. The community supplements these seed bikes by donating/ swapping their unused bikes and accessories during these events. Volunteer mechanics are on hand to tune up and redistribute collected bikes the same day.
Youth who have outgrown their bikes can trade them in for a better fitting one and children who don't have a bike are welcome to choose from the available selection.
- Tune Ups & Accessories - CCs volunteer mechanics show up at your school and provide free tune ups for children who bike to school that day. We can also provide commuter bike accessories such as locks, lights, bells and cargo racks.
- After School - Community Cycles offers a variety of after school opportunities including organized rides, mechanical instruction and Earn-A-Bike.
- Safety Instruction - Community Cycles' volunteers visit classrooms and after school groups to present on bike safety, map reading and commuting.
Contact us if you are interested in having Community Cycles visit your Safe Routes school.
