Community Bike Collective’s Bike Giveaway program helps those in our community who have experienced hardships in life.  Receiving a refurbished bike provides freedom, the ability to get to appointments, school, work, and facilitates an active lifestyle to improve mental and physical health.  CBC is beyond grateful for your support which has enabled this program to deliver hundreds of bikes to our community members over the past few years.

We receive more requests for bikes during the holiday season than any other time of year.  In preparation, we are scheduling two FixIt days, Saturday November 15th and Saturday November 22nd, to refurbish our supply of donated bikes and we’d love your help again.

Sign-up: https://forms.gle/9vJ5KvjwwQLQ5DrbA

We will provide parts and supplies.  We need :

·         Mechanics who can wrench on bikes until they are running safely and smoothly.  (Please bring your own tools and bike stand if you have them)

·         People to clean bikes

·         People to review and test the refurbished bikes 

·         Logistics support/ extra help where needed

Choose the day that works for you.  We’ll be working from 10am – 2pm with lunch provided.   

Questions?  Please call Lindsay at 831-588-8763

Attitude of Gratitude Ride, Hosted by Bike Party Santa Cruz

Sure you ride bikes, but have you ever met the woo woo side of Santa Cruz?

Yoga mats and feather adorned hats. Beige and beads. tapestries and ceremonies… ever been to Bali? Peru? Then this ride’s for you. Salt lamps, crystals, and open chakras.

Mercury is in retrograde and this will be a bike parade. Light some incense, astral projection on over, and taro(t)ll out with us.
