We accept gently used bikes at Different Spokes, during operating hours.

A Year at Different Spokes – 2023

Thank you for riding with us, coasting on one of our library bikes, or wrenching with us during our first year of Different Spokes. It took a village to make this dream come to life, so thank you to the 159 volunteers who contributed over 6,000 hours to empower cycling in their community. Thanks to you, 278 library bikes were ridden, 3,446 bikes were repaired, and 82 rides took place.
