Recycle to Ride Bike Giveaway - Markham

Giving used and unwanted bikes a second life. This program is partly funded by The Regional Municipality of York.
About this Event

Timeslot tickets every 30 min. 4PM, 4:30PM, 5PM, 5:30PM

Every year, thousands of bikes are thrown away in landfills. Some of these bikes are in repairable and reusable condition and can be recovered for community benefit. Others can be stripped for usable parts and repair materials. Despite their remaining utility, these bikes typically end up as scrap metal.

Throughout the summer, we will host a series of bike rescue clinics where volunteer can learn bike repair and refurbishment. Bicycles fixed in this program will be given away to the community for free in monthly public bike giveaways from June to October around York Region.
