Bikes Together transforms our community through bicycle access and education. We began as The Park Hill Bike Depot in 2008 and have grown from an intermittently open workshop space to a fully staffed, full-service bike shop that offers tools, space, classes, bicycles, parts, recycling, and community. In 2016 we opened a location in the La Alma/Lincoln Park neighborhood and the organization's name changed from The Bike Depot to Bikes Together and we have since consolidated our public facing operations to this location. Since 2016, we have significantly grown partnerships with public, private and nonprofit agencies, expanded programming specifically by and for populations historically excluded from bike culture (especially women, transgender & femme people of all races and Black, Indigenous and People of Color of all genders), and grown the number of bicycles we recover, recycle, repair, refurbish and return to the streets, all while empowering a new generation of Denverites to fix and renew things instead of throwing them away.
