'''Organization Description'''

Charlie’s FreeWheels started operating as a volunteer run organization in 2009. Since then, Charlie’s FreeWheels has moved into a shop that it shares with Ya Bikes! (a friendly local repair shop), and has seen 500 youth graduate from the Build-a-Bike program (a 30 hour program that teaches youth how to build their own bicycles), and at least the same number of youth access Drop-In Hours (open shop time for youth to work on repairing their own bikes) and Rides (weekly summer rides & field trips) on a regular basis.

Charlie’s FreeWheels offers the core Build-a-Bike program for free to youth between the ages of 12-25, with priority given to youth residing in Regent Park, Moss Park and St. James Town, as well as homeless youth, and those affiliated with social service agencies in the GTA. The Build-A-Bike program teaches bicycle mechanics to youth and provides youth with the opportunity to build their own bicycles by assessing, repairing and rebuilding a used one that has been donated to the shop. At the end of the program, participants get to keep that bicycle, and are provided with safety accessories and the skills required to safely ride and maintain their bicycles.

We're always down to chat and share our experiences working with young folks and bikes! Feel free to reach out any time: info@charliesfreewheels.ca

Community Bicycle Organizations

2017-10-30T17:12:39Z

Acaylen: /* Ontario */

The list below uses the criteria found in the old [[Bicycle Organization Organization Project]] for what constitutes a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Community_bike_shop community bike shop], namely:

* Non-profit bicycle organizations
* Bike shops that are accessible to people without money
* Shops that have an educational focus, teaching others how to fix bikes
* Shops that are volunteer run
* Organizations that ship bikes to communities in other countries.
* Shops that provide free or low-cost services to the community.
* Organizations that recycle bicycles and parts

'''Maps of Community Bicycle Organizations'''

''Please note: the maps are not synced with each other or the list on this page.'' Both maps are international.

Here is the current, open-collaboration [http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?ie=UTF8&hl=en&msa=0&msid=215640192972316876618.0004a00c0210cf27fd36f&ll=36.173357,-105.644531&spn=43.727571,113.027344&z=3 '''Google map'''], entitled "Earth's Community Bicycle Organizations". It is probably more comprehensive for '''North America'''. The comments associated with the map contain information about the organization and management of the map and its list; you can edit the map to include, or correct, information for your local bike collectives.

Here is the [http://www.heureux-cyclage.org/Les-ateliers-velo-dans-le-monde.html?lang=en '''open street map,'''] which includes all French ateliers (workshops) and is probably more comprehensive for '''Europe'''. You can find more information about this map [http://www.heureux-cyclage.org/La-carte-de-L-Heureux-Cyclage-le.html?lang=en '''here'''.]

[http://www.re-cycle.org/Donate/Bike/Search '''Here'''] is a Re~Cycle's searchable map of UK bike re-use projects - bit more than on this site.

Here is [https://maps.google.it/maps/ms?msid=215162290849180613331.000487a42765863523b94&msa=0&ll=41.907387,12.514801&spn=0.402683,0.891953 '''the google map'''] for the People's bicycle workshops (ciclofficine popolari) of Rome.
