Bike Drives are a fun and simple activity to do.

Contact us and we will ask for the following information:

• Where and when you are planning to do a bike drive, we keep records so that you won't overlap streets with previous bike drives.
• How many of our pre-printed door knob flyers (759 KB) you think you will need.
• When you would like to schedule a drop off day for.

1. If you are an Eagle Scout Applicant, bring your Eagle Scout Workbook to us for signing -- please fill out the proposal prior.
   
2. Just like a food drive, distribute the flyers annoucing a pick up day and distribute them a week prior.  As a point of reference, it can take two people two hours to distribute 200 door knob flyers by bicycle.
3. Coordinate your volunteers to help pickup the bikes and spread flyers -- you will need to borrow or rent trucks and/or trailers.
4. As scheduled earlier, drop off the bikes at our Community Bike Shop and give us any unused flyers.
   
5. Go the extra mile and organize a day to fix the bikes.  If you are an Eagle Scout Applicant, this also helps fill your other scouts fulfill bicycling merit badge requirements.  You can use our shop, tools and one of our volunteer mechanics.  Check our events calendar for a open day/time slot and ask if we can open the shop up for you.  Generally speaking Wednesday and Friday nights are free.
