Overview
The Recyclery Collective is an educational bike shop that promotes sustainability by giving access to tools, skills and opportunities for collaboration. We envision a diverse, resilient neighborhood filled with knowledgeable, self-reliant cyclists. Our Values Collaboration: We create opportunities for people of all backgrounds to work, share, and learn together to support a practical form of transportation. Social Justice: We provide tools and resources to empower underserved populations and nurture community leaders. Ecological Sustainability: We encourage the mindful use of resources and promote cycling as a part of building more resilient communities. Celebrating Everything We Do: We like to have fun while working hard to make bicycles and mechanics accessible. Our Structure The Recyclery is a 501c3 non-profit. All major decisions are made by a quorum of collective members at a twice-a-month meeting. Decisions are made by consensus and the collective is open to anyone willing to put in the time and effort to fulfill collective entry requirements. A few staff members are paid for administrative tasks, fixing bikes for sale, and teaching classes. Regular volunteers fix bikes that we give away and help during Open Shop.
