Williamsport Bicycle Recycle is a community bike shop that aims to empower people through bicycling. The freedom to go places under your own power, improving your health by getting out outside and exercising, and building your confidence by knowing how to fix your bike when something goes wrong can be transforming. People can bring in their bikes and learn to repair them with the help of our mechanics. If you don’t have a bike, you can rebuild one of our donated bikes. Bicycle Recycle holds classes and community bike rides, facilitates art projects using recycled parts and sells refurbished bicycles at an affordable cost. We accept donations of repairable bikes, bike parts, and bike repair tools. For more info, contact the Managers, Louisa & David Stone: [email protected].
